Everyone in the class raises their hand except one little girl.
Everyone in the class raises their hand except one little girl.
The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says,
"Mary, why didn't you raise your hand?''
"Because I'm not a Liverpool fan," she replied.
The teacher, still shocked, asked, "Well, if you are not a Liverpool fan, then who are you a fan of?''
"I am a Bolton fan, and proud of it ," Mary replied.
The teacher could not believe her ears. "Mary, why, pray tell, are you a Bolton fan?"
''Because my mum is a Bolton fan, and my dad is a Bolton fan, so I'm a Bolton fan too!"
''Well,' said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone, "that is no reason for you to be a Bolton fan. You don't have to be just like your parents all of the time… What if your mum was a prostitute and your dad was a drug addict, what would you be then?"
''Then," Mary smiled, "I'd be a Liverpool fan."
