GEORGIA FOOTBALL PLAYER
Leroy went to Georgia on a football scholarship. He was a good running back, but a poor student. At graduation day, Leroy didn't have enough credits. But he was a great football star and the students held a rally and demanded the dean give him a diploma anyway. They were so insistent that the dean agreed if Leroy could answer one question correctly he would give him a diploma.
The one question test was held in the auditorium and the students packed the place. It was standing room only. The dean was on the stage and told Leroy to come up. The dean had the diploma in his hand and said, "Leroy, if you can answer this question correctly I'll give you your diploma." Leroy said he was ready and the dean asked him the question. "Leroy," he said, "How much is three times seven?"
Leroy looked up at the ceiling and then down at his shoes, just pondering the question. The students began shouting; "Graduate him anyway! Graduate him anyway!" Then Leroy held up his hand and the auditorium became silent. Leroy said, "I think I know the answer. Three times seven is twenty-one."
A hush fell over the auditorium and the Georgia students began to shout;
"Give him another chance! Give him another chance!"
Change the heading to Alabama or Auburn or .......... as you like.
