Geeeze....lets call it humor. To think it was something besides that would be ....uh....um...uh.... humorous. I've heard it off and on for at least 30 years and no doubt repeated it a dozen times. It always got a laugh. Of course it "surely was a stretch"....there was no GPS 30 years ago.. DUH : )! Since it was always a Louisiana Cajun story, BUBBA and JUNIOR are usually named BOUDREAU and THIBODEAU.
By the way, did you ever hear about when ROBICHAU and GUILBAUT went deer hunting over in Opelousas? I'll tell you, but first, let me tell you what LANOUE did when he heard his wife was having an affair with his best friend AUCOIN? Well....it seems that EUNICE-MADALEENE was in this bar up in Ville Platte on a Saturday night and ....... Naw....you probably already heard about it.
I have heard many, B and T stories over the years....one of my best friends grew up in Abita Springs. He's been gone a long time but if the Andy Gator flows just right he has acute episodic reversions to LA-speak and loves to tell those jokes. He tells one that I cant remember (or decipher) that ends with the punchline " That dog can't swim" He is usually laughing by himself but he loves to tell the joke.
Incidentally, I assumed you were joking. I was jabbing back. I forget sometimes my humor doesn't translate into the typed word.
the info I added about the Oke is true though. If you go fish there take 2 L of whole blood to replenish what the yellow flies will take from you...bugs there are as bad as Alaska. No exaggeration.
