Hubb and the King
Just got back from a visit to Vermont to see my latest nephew, Hubb. Hubb is a cute baby with a full head of hair. His Mom and Dad (my brother Sam and sister in law Em) seem well rested and as relaxed any new parents I've ever seen.
On the trip back I stopped for lunch at a Burger King in Londonderry, NH. I was quite amused by whats written inside the BK Crown. For all you readers out there here it is.
This is what is printed on the inside of Burger King Crown
Laws of the Crown
Gameplay
A)Adjust size and be the first to place on head
B) Whoever places the Crown on his or her head first, then in a loud voice proclaims, “I am the King” is from that moment forward, in charge. Rule ends if Crown is removed (see coup d’etat). Crowning can happen at anytime, at anywhere.
Advanced Gameplay
1. There can be only one King.
2. The King always gets his/her way.
3. The King must speak with some kind of cool accent.
4. The King makes all the important decisions governing selection of TV channels, movies, radio stations as well as popular activities like snowboarding, pool hopping, and cow tipping. The King also determines who gets the remote, who rides “shotgun” and of course, who pays.
5. Rule ends when Crown is removed for more than 3 seconds (see the Three Second Law).
6. Disagreement with the King results in a “penalty”. This is decided by the King. Common penalties include: forfeiture of fries, surrender of video game controller and banishment from office cubicle.
Three Second Law
The King’s rule ends when the Crown is removed from their head for any reason, accidental or otherwise. The first person to exclaim, “One …Two …Three … King” may claim the Crown.
In the Event of a Tie
If two people Crown themselves King simultaneously , the person whose birthdate is closer to Dec. 4, 1954 (date the first BURGER KING restaurant opened) is King
Coup D’Etat
If everyone agrees you completely stink as King, your rule may be renounced. This constitutes a Coup d’etat. A new King may be Crowned if the group can reach a unanimous decision. If not, the Three Second Law applies.
Kingdom
If you are eating in a BURGER KING restaurant, your rule extends all the way to the edge of the of the parking lot. Off restaurant grounds, your rule extends to a radius of 10 feet around you in all directions.
Warning: This BURGER KING Crown is made of paper. Your rule may end prematurely if Crown is exposed to water or flame.
