As the Pope drove off, one Packer fan asked his buddies, "Who the heck was that guy?" "Dude, that was the Pope," another replied. "He's in direct contact with Heaven and has access to all wisdom." "Well," the Packer fan said, "he may have access to all wisdom, but he doesn't know squat about bear hunting!
