Sharing wisdom by verse: Happy Thanksgiving

Charlie Brown and Snoopy by: Charles M Schulz

Have a Charlie Brown

Thanksgiving

The Charlie Brown and Lucy van Pelt, "Thanksgiving football joke" was featured in Charles M. Schulz's comic strip called "Peanuts", beginning in November 14, 1951. - Charlie, not trusting Lucy, believes when he runs up to kick the ball Lucy will re-
move the ball at the very last moment. He would then fly up in the air and crash to the ground injuring himself. Lucy convinces Charlie that this year is different, she will not trick him again, but she does anyway and Charlie falls for the gag year after year.

Charlie and Lucy Dialogue:

Lucy: Charlie Brown! Oh, Charlie Brown!

Charlie: I can’t believe it. She must think I’m the most stupid person alive.

Lucy: Come on, Charlie Brown. I’ll hold the ball and you kick it.

Charlie: Hold it? Ha! You’ll pull it away and I’ll land flat on my back and kill myself.

Lucy: But Charlie Brown, it’s Thanksgiving.

Charlie: What’s that got to do with anything?

Lucy: Well, one of the greatest traditions we have is the Thanksgiving Day football game. And the biggest, most important tradition of all is the kicking off of the football.

Charlie: Is that right?

Lucy: Absolutely. Come on, Charlie Brown. It’s a big honor for you.

Charlie: Well, if it’s that important, a person should never turn down a big honor. Maybe I should do it. Besides she wouldn't try to trick me on a traditional holiday. This time I’m gonna kick that ball to the moon!

Charlie: Aaauuugh!

Lucy: Isn't it peculiar, Charlie Brown, how some traditions just slowly fade away?
