Confused Kyle

Narrator: When a team wins the Super Bowl or any major playoff game in football, there are instantly T-Shirts that read, for instance, “Green Bay Packers Super Bowl Champions”. Have you ever thought of what happens to the pre-made shirts of the losing team? Well here’s the story of one non-sports fan that received one of the Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowl Champions T Shirt.

Scene: (Son lost in a new school)

Narrator: Kyle has recently moved to Pittsburgh, it is the morning of his first day of school and he’s anxious of what the students are going to think of him, so to be safe (or so he thinks) Kyle decides to wear his recently acquired “Pittsburgh Steelers 2010 Super Bowl Championship” Shirt. Little does he know, the Steelers lost the championship and most kids at the school were not too happy about it.

Kyle: (walks around anxiously and asks a kid where a classroom is)

“Uhh… Where’s room 6-F?”

Other Kid: (Starts to point in a direction, pauses, and takes a closer look at the T-shirt). “What are you a packers fan??”

Kyle: “No I’m a Steelers fan, (points to shirt), see…”

Other Kid: “Yeah, ha, real funny” (walks away)

Kyle: (puzzled)

…

Kyle: “Finally, 6-F”

Narrator: “Immediately as Kyle walked into the room he noticed his teacher was a huge Steelers fan, as he had a banner, and many posters of different players and championship years. He thought this was a good thing and immediately knew he could directly relate. Little did he know that this teacher was a notorious hard ass; especially when it came to his Steelers.”

Kyle: “Hi Mr. Smith, I’m youre new student Kyle, I noticed you’re a big Steelers fan, me too. (Points to shirt).

Teacher: (Puts on glasses, examines shirt) “Ha, pretty funny wise-guy cracking jokes on day when I see. (Walks towards kid, looks down on him as he stands directly over him) I don’t like when kids crack jokes, especially about my Steelers. I think that deserves a detention.

Kyle: But…

Teacher: And trying to appeal, hmm. Yeah that’s two detentions. Now take your seat.

Narrator: And so to his seat went Kyle, having no idea why he had just received a detention and pessimistic about his future in his new school, and city.
