FEDERAL WAY, WA — Local wife Kristina Madsen was disappointed to learn over the weekend that her husband didn't actually have "two tickets to the gun show" as he'd previously asserted.
"When he said, ‘Hey, honey, I've got two tickets to the gun show,' I was excited because that sounded like something fun to attend this weekend," Madsen reported. "Then I realized he was referring to his arms. I love him, but his arms aren't really 'guns.' They're more like pool noodles. Or maybe those flappy arms from those wacky inflatable flailing arm-tube men."
"I was kinda hoping to go to an actual gun show."
Brad Madsen admitted he was attempting to impress his wife with the "I've got two tickets to the GUN SHOW!" routine, but realized he might have oversold the bit when he saw how disappointed his wife was that they weren't going out today.
"I'm surprised she wants to go to an actual gun show. Doesn't really seem like her scene. But then I realized she'd been home with the kids all week and would probably have gone anywhere on Saturday just to get out of the house. Whoops. My bad."
At publishing time, Brad Madsen realized he might have made another error when he told his co-workers he "needed to drop the kids off at the pool" and meant it literally.
