A big-talking cowboy appeared before St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.

'Have you ever done anything of particular merit?' St. Peter asked.


'Well, I can think of one thing,' the big-talkin' cowboy offered.


'On a trip to the Black Hills out in South Dakota , why, I came upon a gang of bikers, who were threatening a young woman.

I directed them to leave her alone, but they wouldn't listen. So, I approached the largest and most heavily tattooed biker and punched him. Why I smacked him hard too, right across his ugly face ....

Then I kicked his bike over, ripped out his nose ring, and threw it on the ground. 

"Now, back off!!" I yelled at the group, "Or I'll kick the crap out of all of you!"

St. Peter was impressed, "When did this happen?"

"Oh, just a couple of minutes ago."
