Last week’s
fake headline was:

formation when girl tries out for center - I’m not
going to touch this one either.
And the only winner – Ratta tat

FISHDUCKY!!
I'll give it
another go--how about "High School Football Team changes offense to
shotgun formation when girl tries out for center"?
If
you like to laugh, visit Fran, Queen of The Fake Headlines, @
Thanks for the morning laughs. You've got some really good ones this week, and as always, I get a bigger kick out of your comments as I do out of the original headlines.
ReplyDeleteOkay, the fake? I hope it's the one about the bear with the assault rifle. Lord knows, if the animals start fighting back, a lot of hunters are gonna be in trouble.
"Citrus farmers enlist army of wasps to help save crops"
ReplyDeleteSo THAT'S where all those laid off Space Shuttle engineers in Florida found work.
okay, i'm on a losing roll, but i'll go for the skydiver.
ReplyDeleteI'm probably wrong this week, but I'll go for "Citrus farmers enlist army of wasps to help save crops".
ReplyDeleteIt's really difficult to believe that only one of these is a fake. Really?
ReplyDeleteI'm going to go with the California man getting a sex change--it just doesn't make sense
I think the citrus farmer one is fake, but the statue with the broken finger made me laugh the most.
ReplyDeleteI'm going for the Alaskan assault-rifler as fake. I think Alaskans carry more powerful firearms that don't shoot so much.
ReplyDeleteBut if it's true, I wonder how much effort it took to pry that assault rifle from the bear's cold, dead paws.
I have a hard time believing most of these...but...I think the fake one is the one about a shark being found on the NY Subway. I don't know, it just seems a bit "fishy" to me -- after your one post about Sharknado, I think you were just waiting to write this one!
