A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is a Tennessee Volunteer fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they are Tennessee Volunteer fans too. Not really knowing what a Tennessee Volunteer fan is, but wanting to be liked by their teacher, their hands fly into the air.
There is, however, one exception. Janet has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different.
"Because I'm not a Tennessee Volunteer fan" she reports.
"Then," asks the teacher, "what are you?"
"I'm a Florida Gator fan" boasts the little girl.
The teacher then asks Janet why she is a Florida Gator fan.
"Well, my Dad and Mom are Gator fans, so I'm a Gator too" she responds.
"That's no reason," the teacher says. "What if your Mom was a moron, and your dad was an idiot. What would you be then?"
Janet smiles and says, "Then I'd be a Tennessee Volunteer fan."
