I also like groaners but, upon B.H.'s recommendation, I don't confine mine to just one thread.

Thanks for the encouragement, B.H.!

This may be just another urban ledgend (B.H. & snopes would know) but I heard a story about some radio contest offering, as a first prize, a Toyota. Or that, at least, was what it sounded like over the radio.

When the understandably excited winner showed up to claim her prize and was instead awarded a "Toy Yoda" (a little rubber figurine) she sued the station and ended up receiving a large judgement from the courts.

What do you say, B.H.?

Perhaps because all the posters are currently clowns - the current theme being 'the circus'.
