“Despite their inherent dislike of contact with rodents, the elves of In Jest agreed to the game after several hours of piteous squealing by their opponents. Unfortunately, one of their star players, Chuckle missed the game. While he claimed that this was due to an old injury, he was overheard muttering about "filthy rats."

Fortunately, despite the absence of some of their best players, the elves were able to hold their own. Neither defense was up to stopping the blazingly fast passing and running game of the other team. However, a fortunate blitz combined with the excellent kicking skills of Banana Cream Pie allowed the elves to take the lead in the second half.

Unfortunately, Nuffl smiled upon the rats during the last seconds of the game, allowing them to score the equalizing touchdown as the whistle blew. Robbed of a well deserved victory, the elves walked off the field, greatly regretting a pregame decision to buy sparkly new tights for their uniforms rather than spend the cash on the usual sacrifice to Nuffl. ”
