JOKE:
One
night during deer season, a state cop was staking out a particularly
rowdy bar in the U.P. to fill his quota on DUI tickets by targeting
downstate deer hunters. At closing time, he saw a deer hunter
tumble out of the bar, trip on the curb, then try his keys in five
different trucks before he found his. He sat in the front seat fumbling
around with his keys for several minutes. All the other deer hunters
left the bar and drove off. Finally he started his engine and
began to drive away. The cop was waiting for him though, and he
stopped the driver, read him his rights and administered the
Breathalyzer test. The results showed a reading of 0.00% blood alcohol
level! The puzzled officer demanded to know how that could be.
The deer hunter replied, "Tonight I'm the designated decoy."
