Fowled out

It was one of those events you hate to miss:

Former boxer Thomas “Hit Man” Hearns played tic-tac-toe with a chicken in a casino in Detroit.

Hearns outwitted, if that’s the word, the chicken in one game. But another game was a draw.

Apparently, the chicken is no bird brain when it comes to tic-tac-toe. Personally, I’m not impressed. I bet it doesn’t know the Colonel’s formula of 11 secret herbs and spices.

By the way, the promotional event was held in a casino called “Greektown.” Wouldn’t “Motown” be better suited for Detroit?

Whatever. I just hope nobody is counting on this to pick up the slack in Detroit if General Motors goes down.

Now, if they were playing chess, maybe.
