Once upon a time there was a little boy named David who ran and played in the forest all day with not a care in the world. One day on his wanderings he came across a huge Lion in a forest clearing… a Thirsty Lion as a matter of fact. He was scared because when he saw the Lion yawn he saw that there were 60 people stuck in the Thirsty Lion’s belly!!
‘What could he do to save them?’ the little boy thought. Then it occurred to him that if he would ask the Lion questions and show him funny pictures and videos, maybe the Lion would laugh so hard that the people stuck inside would be expelled through it’s nose. So David walked into the clearing and said “Hey Lion, I have a game for you to play!”.
Well as noted earlier the Lion was Thirsty, so he said ‘Fine little boy I’ll play your game… but if I win you must bring me a drink or I’ll eat you and you’ll spend the rest of your life in my belly.’
‘Ok, I’ll find you a drink, but only if you let the other people in your belly play too. The Lion thought this little boy was an odd duck, but wasn’t in the least bit afraid of him, so it agreed. And thus the game began.
The game went on through the night and while the boy was witty he still couldn’t get the Lion to laugh hard enough to shoot the people in it’s belly out of it’s nose.
There were five groups of people in the Lion’s belly who fought the hardest to escape and answered almost all of the questions right. ‘Anagram This!’ and ‘Dracula Tree Forest’ fought hard but couldn’t get out of the Lion’s mouth.’ T/x’ struggled but tripped on the lion’s tongue and fell back into the belly. ‘More Cowbell’ got hold of a tooth and almost made it, but when the lion saw this, it simply licked it’s lips and swallowed them again. And then Lo! a group answered the final question right and POOF! they were free of the Thirsty Lion.
The Lion looked at them in wonder and said “Who is this team who was in my belly and yet beat me in trivia?”
The team simply turned and pointed at the little boy David and said ‘I’m With Stupid!’
After a second the Lion started giggling, and then guffawing and then, with a snort which echoed across the land, the Lion snorted the rest of the teams out of it’s big nose and into the clearing.
“Hooray!!” said the rest of the teams and they all lived happily ever after.
Except for the Lion who was still terribly thirsty, Chris and Richard who didn’t quite make it out of The Thirsty Lion’s Mouth and the little boy David, who ended up a little insulted. Well he thought as he went back to cavorting in the forest… at least they didn’t say ‘Your Mom’.
