Hockey Rivals

Two Canadians boarded a flight out of Salt Lake City after the hockey game. One sat in the window seat and the other sat in the middle seat. Just before take-off, a American got on and took the aisle seat.

After take-off,the American kicked his shoes off, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Canadian in the window seat said, "I think I'll get up and get a beer." No problem, "said the American, "I'll get it for you."

While he was gone, one of the Canadians picked up the American's shoe and spat in it. When he returned with the beer,the other Canadian said, "That looks good, I think I'll have one too."

Again, the American obligingly went to fetch it and while he was gone the other Canadian picked up the other shoe and spat in it. The American returned to his seat, they sat back and enjoyed the flight. As the plane was landing, the American slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened.

"Why does it have to be this way?" he asked."How long must this go on? This fighting between our nations? This hatred? This animosity? This spitting in Shoes, and pissing in beers?"
