On a tour of Virginia, the Pope took a couple of days off to visit the
coastal area for some sightseeing. He was cruising along the beach in
his Pope mobile. Suddenly he noticed a frantic commotion just off shore.

A helpless man, wearing a UVA jersey, was struggling frantically to
free himself from the jaws of a 25-foot shark. As the Pope watched,
horrified, a speedboat came racing up with three men wearing VT
jerseys aboard. One quickly fired a harpoon into the shark’s side. The
other two reached out and pulled the bleeding, semiconscious UVA fan
from the water. Then using baseball bats, the three heroes beat the
shark to death and hauled it into the boat also.

Immediately the Pope shouted and summoned them to the beach. “I give
you my blessings for your brave actions,” he told them. “I heard that
there was some bitter hatred between UVA and VT fans, but now I have
seen with my own eyes that this is not true.”

As the Pope drove off, the harpooner asked his buddies “Who was that?”

“It was the Pope,” one replied. “It is said he is in direct contact with God and has all of God’s wisdom.”

“Well,” the harpooner said, “he may have access to God’s wisdom, but
he doesn’t know squat about shark fishing. How’s the bait holding up?”
