Our story begins at the
Olympics, specifically the wrestling event. It is narrowed down to the Russian or the
American for the gold medal. Before the final match, the American wrestler's trainer comes
to him and says, "Now don't forget all the research we've done on this Russian. He's
never lost a match because of this "Pretzel" hold he has. Whatever you do, don't
let him get you in this hold! If he does, you're finished!"
The wrestler nods in agreement.
Now, to the match... The American
and the Russian circle each other several times looking for an opening. All of a sudden
the Russian lunges forward, grabbing the American and wrapping him up in the dreaded
pretzel hold. A sigh of disappointment goes up from the crowd, and the trainer buries his
face in his hands for he knows all is lost. He can't watch the ending.
Suddenly there is a scream, a cheer from the crowd, and the trainer raises his eyes just
in time to see the Russian flying up in the air. The Russian's back hits the mat with a
thud, and the American weakly collapses on top of him, getting the pin and winning the
match.
The trainer is astounded! When he finally gets the American wrestler alone, he asks,
"How did you ever get out of that hold? No one has ever done it before!"
The wrestler answers, "Well, I was ready to give up when he got me in that hold, but
at the last moment, I opened my eyes and saw a pair of testicles right in front of my
face. I thought I had nothing to lose, so with my last ounce of strength I stretched out
my neck and bit those babies just as hard as I could......You'd be amazed how strong you
get when you bite your own testicles!"
