On a tour of Florida, the Pope took a couple of days off his itinerary to visit the coastline on an impromptu sightseeing trip. His 4X4 Popemobile was driving along the beautiful shoreline (an area where Western New Yorkers typically visit in the winter) when there was an enormous commotion heard just off the headland. He drove closer to see what it was.

 

Upon approaching the scene, he saw a man in the water wearing a Miami Dolphins jersey, struggling frantically to free himself from the jaws of a 25-foot shark! At that moment, a speedboat containing three men wearing Buffalo Bills jerseys roared into view from around the point. Immediately, one of the men took aim and fired a harpoon into the shark's ribs, immobilizing it instantly. The other two reached out and pulled the Miami fan from the water and then, using long clubs, beat the shark to death. They then bundled the bleeding, semi-conscious man into the boat along with the dead shark and then prepared for a hasty retreat when they heard frantic shouting from the shore. It was the Pope summoning them to the beach.

 

After they reached shore, the Pope praised them for the rescue and said, "I give you my blessing for your brave actions. I had heard that there was bitter hatred in your country between the fans of the Bills and the Dolphins, but now I have seen with my own eyes this is not true. I can see that your society is a truly enlightened example of true harmony and companionship that could serve as a model on which other countries, like this one, could follow". He blessed them all and drove off in a cloud of dust.

 

As he departed, the harpooner asked the others, "Who was that?"

 

"That," one answered, "was his Holiness the Pope. He is in direct contact with God and has access to all of God's wisdom".

 

"Well," the harpooner replied, "he doesn't know a thing about shark fishing!!
