Daddy said Uncle Fat was tall, funny but not too handsome. He had a hump on his back. Said Uncle Fat could dance & all the girls wanted to dance with him at the dance @ this made their boyfriends & husbands mad.
Anyway Uncle Fat would always go to town to drink beer @ dance on the weekends & he would end up fighting every now & then. Daddy said Uncle Fat would have these stories about getting t...he last punch & running faster, etc.
Daddy said he would wait to hear about the dances & fights when Uncle Fat would return after a long walk home from town to where they lived. Daddy said he never saw a scratch on Uncle Fat so he figured he was winning these fights & running home without a scratch until one night Uncle Fat didn't come home. They had to get the horse & buggy & go to town near the dawn hour to look for him. Daddy said he apparently lost this fight cuz he had scratches all over and looked a mess. They found him sleeping in the grass near the bar. When they realized he was alive & just a little bruised they were so happy.
He said they asked Uncle Fat (in a taunting way) "So Fat, is there a place on your body that don't have scratches?
Uncle Fat answered, "Only under my feet"!
