Wisconsin Rednecks

dreamsfloatjoe · 01-21-2009, 06:42 AM

A friend sent me this and said it was a true story heard on a Wisconsin radio station:

A guy buys a new Lincoln Navigator for $42,500.00 (with monthly payments of $560.00). He and his friend go duck hunting in upper Wisconsin. It is mid-winter…and of course, all of the lakes are frozen. These two guys go out on the ice with their GUNS, a DOG….and of course, the new NAVIGATOR. They decide they want to make a natural looking open water area for the ducks to focus on….something for the decoys to float on.

Now, making a hole in the ice large enough to invite a passing duck is going to take a little more power than the average drill auger can produce. So, out of the back of the new Navigator comes a stick of dynamite with a short 40 second-fuse. Now our two Rocket Scientists, afraid they might slip on the ice while trying to run away after lighting the fuse (and becoming toast along with the Navigator), decide on the following course of action: they light the 40 second fuse; then, with a mighty thrust, they throw the stick of dynamite as far away as possible.

Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I mentioned the NAVIGATOR, the GUNS, and the DOG…??? Let’s talk about the dog: A highly trained Black Lab used for RETRIEVING; especially things thrown by the owner. You guessed it! The dog takes off across the ice at a high rate of speed and grabs the stick of dynamite, with the burning 40-second fuse, just as it hits the ice.

The two men swallow; blink; start waving their arms; and, with veins in their necks swelling to resemble stalks of rhubarb, scream and holler at the dog to stop. The dog, now apparently cheered on by his master, keeps coming. One hunter panics; grabs the shotgun; and shoots the dog. The shotgun is loaded with #8 bird shot….hardly big enough to stop a Black Lab. The dog stops for a moment, slightly confused, then continues on. Another shot, and this time the dog, still standing, becomes really confused….and of course terrified…thinks these two geniuses have gone insane. The dog takes off to find cover… UNDER the brand new Navigator.

The men continue to scream as they run. The red hot exhaust pipe on the truck touches the dog’s rear end; he yelps; drops the dynamite under the truck; and takes off after his master.

Then ” “” “” “” “” ” BOOOOOOOOOOOOM “” “” “” “” “” ! ! !

The truck is blown to bits and sinks to the bottom of the lake, leaving the two idiots standing there with “I can’t believe this just happened” looks on their faces. The insurance company says that sinking a vehicle in a lake by illegal use of explosives is NOT COVERED by the policy. And he still had yet to make the first of those $560.00 a month payments.

The dog is okay and doing just fine. And, you thought all Rednecks lived in the South!

In the past TV show and the Mythbuster guys (Jamie and Adams) did trying use that method where those idiot men with their dog and expensive vehicle to blow up bits but failed! Like the Snopes.com said False!

I am glad to know it is false. I felt bad for the dog.

I remember that episode. They had to use A LOT of dynamite to make it work. When the truck finally went through, the water froze up almost instantly. So, they had to blow up the ice again to tow the truck out of the water. Hehehe!
