A TRUE STORY about TWO DUCK HUNTERS FROM PRINCE ALBERT, SASK.
HEARD ON A SASKATOON RADIO STATION REPORTING ON THE INCIDENT...
A guy buys a new Lincoln Navigator from Merlin Motors in Saskatoon for $62,500.00 (with monthly payments of $560.00).
He and a friend go duck hunting at Tobin Lake in mid-October; and of course, the lake is frozen.
These two guys go out on a lake with their GUNS, a DOG, and of course the new NAVIGATOR.
They decide they want to make a natural-looking water area for the ducks, something for the decoys to float on.
Now making a hole in the ice large enough to invite a passing duck, is going to take a little more power than the average drill auger can produce.
So, out of the back of the new Navigator comes a stick of dynamite with a short 40 second-fuse. Now our two Rocket Scientists, afraid they might slip on the ice while trying to run away after lighting the fuse (and becoming toast, along with the Navigator), decide on the following course of action: they light the 40-second fuse; then, with a mighty thrust, they throw the stick of dynamite as far away as possible.
Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I mentioned the NAVIGATOR, the GUNS, and the DOG...???
Let's talk about the dog: A highly trained Black Lab used for RETRIEVING!!!
Especially things were thrown by the owner.
You guessed it: the dog takes off across the ice at a high rate of speed and grabs the stick of dynamite, with the burning 40-second fuse, just as it hits the ice.
