Winner of Eli’s Cartoon Caption Contest No. 167

“I never dreamed they would charge the entire firm!”

(by Brendan Gannon)

My original caption: “And then I said to the judge, ‘What part of my Not Guilty plea don’t you understand, Dude?’.”

Nice work on gaining your fourth victory, Brendan Gannon (your first win was back in Contest No. 130). Congrats — once again you can proudly hold your head high, because you are definitely one of the funniest people around.

Here are the other entries that were under serious consideration:

“So then my friend says, you know the Trump White House is looking to hire some good people . . . ” (by Marc Eliot Stein)

“Isn’t wearing these hats punishment enough?” (by Rich Wolf)

“Wow! Who would have thought that in 2021 I’d be living with the president.” (by Ronn Roxx)

“Any chance of de-funding these guards?” (by John Huckstep)

“I’m really starting to get into these casual Fridays!” (by Tim Collins)

“Apparently, the IRS can’t take a joke.” (by Michael Lomazow)

 

Yes, captioneers, another contest will certainly appear here shortly. Keep on the lookout for it and keep those funny captions coming.
