Leaping Frogs In Calaveras County
The thought of "dwarf tossing" I abhor
But a leaping frog will make me roar
In Calaveras County
They leap to collect bounty
Hillbillies watch as moonshine they pour
To leap the farthest takes stamina
Mixed with a good dose of enema
Hoots and howls from onlookers
As bets are placed with bookers
Entertainment factor enigma
Entry for John Freeman's Limerick contest
Calaveras County really does have a frog jumping contest. See
