The Funeral Procession

A man was leaving a coffee shop when he noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery. A long, black hearse was followed by a second long, black hearse about 50 feet behind.

Behind the second hearse was a solitary man walking a pit bull on a leash. Behind him were 200 men, walking single file. The man couldn't stand his curiosity. He respectfully approached the man walking the dog and said, "I am so sorry for your loss. I know now is a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this. Whose funeral is it?" The man replied, "Well, the first hearse is for my wife." "That's awful! What happened to her?" The man replied, "My dog attacked and killed her." "Gosh, I'm so sorry... Well, who's in the second hearse?" The man answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the dog turned on her." A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed between the two men. "...Could I borrow that dog?" "Get in line."
