Two guys from Buffalo, NY die and
wake up in
hell. The next day
the
devil stops in to check on them
and sees them
dressed in parkas,
mittens and bomber hats warming
themselves around
the fire.
The devil asks them, "What are
you doing? Isn't
it hot enough for you?"
The two guys reply, "Well, you
know, we're from
Buffalo, the land of
snow and ice and cold. We're
just happy for a
chance to warm up a
little bit, you know."
The devil decides that these two
aren't miserable
enough and turns
up the heat. The next morning he
stops in again
and there they are,
still dressed in parkas, hats and
mittens.
The
devil asks them again,
"Its awfully hot down here, can't
you guys feel
that?" Again the two
guys reply, "Well, like we told
you yesterday,
we're from Buffalo,
the land of snow and ice and cold.
We're just
happy for a chance to
warm up a little bit, you know."
This gets the devil a little steamed
up and he
decides to fix the
two guys. He cranks the heat
up as high as it
will go. The people
are
wailing and screaming every where.
He stops by
the room with the
two guys from Buffalo and finds
them in light
jackets and hats,
grilling sausage and drinking beer.
The devil is
astonished,
"Everyone down here is in abject
misery, and you
two seem to be
enjoying yourself."
The two Buffalonians reply, "Well,
ya know, we
don't get too much warm
weather up there in Buffalo, we've
just got to
have a cook out when the
weather's this nice."
The devil is absolutely furious,
he can hardly
see straight.
Finally he comes up with the answer.
The two
guys love the heat because
they have been cold all their lives.
The devil
decides to turn all the
heat off in hell.
The next morning, the temperature
is below zero,
icicles are hanging
everywhere, people are shivering
so bad that they
are unable to wail,
moan and gnash their teeth.
The devil smiles and
heads for the room
with the two Buffalo men.
He gets there and
finds them back in their
parkas, bomber hats, and mittens.
They are
jumping up and down,
cheering, yelling and screaming
like mad men.
The devil is dumbfounded,
"I don't understand, when I turn
up the heat
you're happy.
Now its freezing cold and you're
still happy.
What is wrong with you two?
The Buffalonians look at the devil
in surprise,
"Well, don't you know?
If hell froze over, that
must mean the Bills won
the Super Bowl.
