Thank you, @Ruffinogold , you have gotten me started about how I am not as innocent as I look when it comes to dwarf tossing.
Now, in front of all of you, I have to confess. I have to get this off my conscience. I have tossed more than one dwarf in my time. I'm the man who did it.
It was in Portchester, New York, where Lifesavers, the candy in a roll, were invented. If you take the train, you will go past the old factory. It is all lit up at night, like candyland. The factory is condominiums now.
I was in Portchester to see a lady, naturally. She was kind of kinky, if you know what I mean. I took the train. We went to see a jello wrestling match. J-E-L-L-O. It was like GLOW, the Gorgeous Ladies of Wresting, but it wasn't on UHF TV. It was in a bar with a swimming pool full of jello in the middle of the dance floor. It was quite hypnotic.
Between rounds, the midgets would come out and do a little dance and comedy skits and whatnot. The night ended with a dwarf toss. Those dwarves are heavy!
Has anyone else had experience with this sport?
I am sorry that this derailment has nothing to do with Secret Santa 2023 but Ruff brought it up.
I also apologize for going full WK on this tangent. I am working on something else and distracted. The whole story is true.

See, it is rules like that that why SimplePipes doesn't like taverns, lounges, bars, coffee shops, whatever you choose to call them.
I choose to call them dwarfless places. A place that bans dwarf tossing is a place that will not get my business. Who doesn't like to have fun? Most of them allow pipe smoking, Lord of the Rings-style. It's good for business.simplepipes wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 6:43 pm
I feel the same about taverns, lounges, bars whatever you choose to call them . . .

I have been informed that we have packages of pipe tobacco hitting the Christmas Tree’s of Santa’s favorite pipe smokers very soon..
I also will confess to have participated. Somewhere in the 1988-89 time frame. I believe the location was The Cellar and it was part of the Jim Rose Circus Side Show.
