A good ole West Virginia boy won a bass boat in a raffle drawing. Max brought it home and his wife looks at him and says,

"What you gonna do with that. There ain't no water deep enough to float a boat within 100 miles of here."

Max says, "I won it and I'm a-gonna keep it."

Ralph came over to visit several days later. Ralph sees the wife and asks where Max is.

Carol says, "Max's out there in his bass boat", pointing to the field behind the house.

Ralph heads out behind the house and sees Max sitting in a bass boat with a fishing rod in his hand down in the middle of a big field. Ralph yells out to Max, "What are you doin'?"

Max replies, "I'm fishin'. What does it look like I'm a doin'?"

Ralph yells, "It's people like you that give people from West Virginia a bad name, makin'

everybody think we're stupid. If I could swim, I'd come out there and whip your ass!"
