Huckleberries: Zags lover slam-dunks ‘Caveman’

Huckleberries Tuesday:

Trustee Christa Hazel of the Coeur d’Alene School Board had a close encounter with a “Caveman” at a checkout counter of a local store the other day.

It began with the male cashier praising the Gonzaga women’s basketball team. He was singing to the choir, as far as Gonzaga lover Christa was concerned. But the guy behind her muttered.

“Yeah,” sneered the Caveman, “but the men’s team was better.” When Christa and the cashier agreed that both teams performed well, our Fred Flintstone continued: “I just think it’s unnatural for women to play that sport. Just not right.”

Christa looked to see if Mr. Flintstone was teasing. But he was stern and serious. So, smiling, she said: “Yeah, those women should be barefoot and in the kitchen.” The cashier smirked. Again, Freddy F: “It’s just, I don’t know, different.” Smiling again, Christa grabbed her bags and said ere she walked out of sight: “Yeah, it’s probably cuz of all the boobs and stuff.”

Game, set, match, to Christa. More here.
