BS: Pun Help Needed ASAP

28 Apr 10 - 10:08 AM (#2895920)
Subject: BS: Pun Help Needed ASAP
From: SINSULL

Second try. This just disappeared.

On Friday, my company is holding a Wii bowling tournament to raise funds for the American Heart Association. My partner and I will be wearing the inflatables from the Getaway - a flamingo and a duck probably. Any suggestions for a team name?
Birds of a Feather?
Leading Ladies?
The Lame Ducks?
Alley Cats doesn't work.

Help!

I tried an anagram but, with a the letters 'flamingo and duck', you don't want to know some of them! The best of the rest, IMO, was 'Folk Acid Mad Gun'

Aside from that how about a play on the old Manfred Man song - 'Pretty Duck' :-)

A bit more obvious may make more sense I suppose -

Feathered Furies?
Ornathogical Oddballs? (No insult intended :-P )
Battling Birdies?

Yeah - we thought of that. Maybe 1 Pink Lady and a Duck.

Upon consulting the bowling glossary my attention immediately focused on "hook," a ball that breaks to the left or right.

Have you considered the team name "Feathered Hookers"?

I believe Severn would approve.

"Unchained Mallardy"

"Birds of the air" (you did say they were inflatable)

"Flaming ducks" (Why do ducks have big feet? To stamp out forest fires. Why do elephants have big feet? To stamp out flaming ducks!)

Not all of these work for a duck-flamingo pair but they might for some similar configurations:

Bird Brains with Heart

All Hands On Duck
(That one might invite rude behavior, I fear)

Flamingo Liberals

Par Avian

Ornithological Orneries

Fowled Out

(High) Pop Fowls

Fowl Mouths Speak From The Heart

Eider One Orni Otter (but you'd need a mammal along for the ride)

Let Osprey

Crazy As A Loon

Peeking Ducks

Bird Floozies

Duck and Cover

No Quacks, Please

Flying The Coop

Fine Feathered Friends

Mocking Birds (We sure are!)
