Louisiana Eatin’
We received 643 high-flying entries in this week’s Cartoon Caption Contest. This was a difficult challenge, but y’all rose to the occasion and sent in lots of terrific stuff. Our winner took the top spot with a short, quirky punchline that fit the image just right!
Nice job, folks!
As always, when we have duplicate entries, and we always do, we pick the earliest sent in.
