An elderly couple settled into bed when the husband let out a loud fart and triumphantly declared, “Seven points!”
His wife, bewildered, asked what he meant.
“Football,” he replied. “That was a touchdown.”
Not wanting to be outdone, she waited a moment, then let one slip and proudly announced, “Touchdown! Tie game!”
Not to be left behind, the husband then let another one rip: “Aha! 14 to 7 — I’m back in the lead!”
The wife responded with a small toot: “Extra point! We’re tied again!”
They kept going like that, trading “scores” back and forth, until their laughter overtook their ability to keep track.
What began as bedtime turned into their silly, impromptu game — a humorous tradition that proved that even after years together, love, laughter, and a little mischief can keep the spark alive.
