A Tiger fan, a Longhorn fan and a Sooner fan were all in Saudi Arabia, sharing a smuggled crate of booze. All of a sudden the Saudi police rushed in and arrested them. The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offense in Saudi Arabia, so for the terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the booze, they were sentenced to 20 lashes.

As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheik suddenly said, “It’s my first wife’s birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping.”

The Sooner fan was first in line, so he thought about this for a while and then said, “Please tie a pillow to my back.” This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through. The Sooner fan had to be carried away bleeding and weak with pain when the punishment was done.

The Texas fan was next up, and after watching the scene, said “All Right! Please fix two pillows on my back.” But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes before the whip went through again, sending the Texas fan out crying like the little girly man he so clearly was.

The Tiger fan was the last one up , but before he could say anything, the Sheik turned to him and said, “You support the greatest team in the world, your alumni has some of the best and most loyal football fans in the world. For this, you may have two wishes!”

“Thanks, your most Royal highness,” the Tiger fan replies. “In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes.”

“Not only are you an honorable, handsome and powerful man, you are also very brave,” the Sheik says with an admiring look on his face. “If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish? What is it to be?” the Sheik asks.

“Tie the Texas fan to my back.”
