... LEROY'S MAD, WATCH OUT!!!

A rich white lawyer in Georgia (one of those "friends in low places" Travis was referring to) decided that he wanted to throw a party and invited all of his buddies and neighbors. He also invited Leroy, the token black guy in the neighborhood.

The party was held around the pool in the backyard of the lawyer's mansion. Everyone was having a good time drinking, dancing, eating shrimp, oysters and BBQ, and flirting with the women.

At the height of the party, the rich white lawyer dude said, "I have a 10ft man-eating gator in my pool and I'll give a million dollars to anyone who has the guts to jump in."

The words were barely out of the rich white laywer's mouth when there was a loud splash and everyone turned around and saw Leroy in the pool!

Leroy was fighting the gator and kicking its ass! Leroy was jabbing the gator in the eyes with his thumbs, throwing punches, doing all kinds of stuff like head butts and chokeholds, biting the gator on the tail and flipping the gator through the air like some kind of Japanese Judo Instructor.

The water was churning and splashing everywhere. Both Leroy and the gator were screaming and raising hell. Finally Leroy strangled the gator and let it sink to the bottom like a K-Mart goldfish.

Leroy then slowly climbed out of the pool. Everbody was just staring at him in disbelief.

Finally, the rich white lawyer says, "Well, Leroy, I reckon I owe you a million dollars."

"No, that's okay. I don't want it," said Leroy.

The rich white lawyer insisted. "Man, I have to give you something. You won the bet. How about half a million bucks then?"

"No thanks. I don't want it," answered Leroy.

The white laywer said, "Come on, I insist on giving you something. That was amazing. How about a new Porsche and a Rolex and some stock options?"

Still, the brother said no.

So, the confused rich white lawyer said, "Well, Leroy, then what do you want?"

Leroy said, "I want the name of the son of a b*tch who pushed me into the pool."
