South African Tour this May

The Westport President Bob, Marius the coach, Pat the prop and a wing are taking the charter flight to the Joburg, Pretoria match when the engines cut out.

The pilot enters the passenger compartment and says, "We're going down. There's only four parachutes! Since I'm the pilot I'm taking one," and then jumps from the plane.

Marius says, "Without me the team won't have a chance, so I afraid I'll have to take one," and he jumps out.

The winger says, "I'm the fastest, smartest man on the pitch and the best looking and without me the team can't win a game, so I'm taking one," and he jumps out of the plane.

President Bob looks at Pat and says, "You take the last parachute. The team needs you more than it needs me". Pat responds, "We both can take a parachute. The smartest man on the pitch just jumped out of the plane with my kit bag on his back."
