The Airplane Ride

[Coffee Dude]

Boudreaux and his wife Marie went down to the state fair up dare in Baton Rouge for the first time.

Boudreaux saw one of dem two wing airplanes an it had a sign say “Airplane ride $10”.

Boudreaux: Marie, look I can take an airplane ride for $10

Marie; Boudreaux, That airplane ride cost $10, and $10 is $10.

For many years Boudreaux and Marie went to the Fair and every year Boudreaux asked Marie if he could ride the airplane and always the same response “Boudreaux, $10 is $10”.

One year Boudreaux decided to take a stand.

Boudreaux: Marie, I’m 70 years old. If I don’t ride that airplane this year I might never get to ride in that airplane.

Marie: Boudreaux, $10 is $10.

The pilot overheard the conversation and suggested that they could ride da airplane for free on one condition… you can’t make one sound while we’re flying or I will charge you the $10.

Boudreaux: Come on Marie i’s free!!

Marie agreed with the terms and they climbed in to the back seat of the plane and took off.

The pilot did every thing he could to make them scream out. He looped the loop. He done a barrel roll. He done some kind of flippity flop. But not a sound from the back of the plane.

When he landed he complimented Boudreaux on his strong will to keep quiet.

Boudreaux: I started to say something when Marie fell out but $10 IS $10.
