Billfred loves puns. He loves silly puns. Spend an hour with him and he will have made oh, maybe 25 puns.

What he often seems to do is base the subject matter on the contest #, tying it in with a team number. Billfred introduces the new contest with a really bad pun each week. This unofficial caption contest was #180: FRC 180 otherwise known as SPAM.

They are a super team.

Edit: Response to Billfred's post below - yup - I figured 25 might be a low number, depending on if you were talking or listening during that hour. (you do both well) - and the 25 was a nod to another great really bad punster...

Jane,

Catch me when I haven't had to make a 500+ mile drive the day before. If I were doing just 25 puns per hour in the Preston lobby, my friends would think I needed my head examined. (not that they don't think that already...)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #180

I was attempting to play off this post of Billfred's in the game hint thread, but apparently too much time had passed.

In an attempt to get the timing back to normal, the deadline this time around will be Sunday, December 23, at midnight Eastern. (Well, nominally.)

Go!
I don't think this is a real caption contest... well maybe. If it was legitimate Billfred wouldn't think to say that it's legitimate. He says there's no spam, but in the picture we can clearly see a spam t-shirt... unless it's a knock-off. But the 'no' appearing twice in the sentence indicates that there IS spam and the shirt is possibly authentic(?)

Sheesh, this has all the clarity of one of Dave's posts.
