Hillbillies Want To Fight
John and Clarence were backwoods hillbillies that lived across the river and always found reasons to fight over something. Whenever he got the chance John would throw rocks across the river at Clarence hoping to knock him out.
This went on for years until one day the Corps of Engineers came to build a bridge across that river. John was elated; he told his wife that finally he was going to get the chance to cross over and whip Clarence.
He left the house and returned in a matter of minutes. His wife asked what was wrong, didn’t he intend to go over the bridge and whip Clarence? He replied that he never had really seen Clarence up close and didn’t realize his size until he started over the bridge and saw the sign: “CLEARANCE 8 FT 3 IN”
