Saskatchewan: Where the men are men and so are the women.


Well, I'm off to Regina for the weekend to drink my face off and take in the Labour Day Classic. The great thing about Regina is that I can be absolutely shit-faced for 48 hours and still be the smartest person in that city! Here's hoping I get in and out unscathed as a Bomber fan in Regina is most definitely in enemy territory. In honour of our opponents, here's all of the best Rider jokes I know...
I will finish what I start...
What is 110 yards long and has 5 teeth ?
The first row at Taylor Field!

NEWS HEADLINE! Rider Practice suspended....

Saskatchewan Roughriders football practice was delayed on Wednesday for nearly two hours at Taylor Field. One of the players, while on his way to the locker room, happened to look down and notice a suspicious looking, unknown white powdery substance on the practice field.

The head coach immediately suspended practice while he RCMP were called in to investigate. After a complete field analysis, the RCMP determined that the white substance, unknown to the players, was the goal line.

Practice was resumed when the RCMP decided that the team would not be likely to encounter the substance again.


Q. What do you call a ROUGHRIDER with a GREY CUP ring?
A. A thief.

Saskatchewan: Where learning all that fancy stuff like spelling n such don't matter if ya can't open a feed bag!

Saskatchewan: Where everyone in the wedding picture has a tooth missing. And that's just the bridal party.

Saskatchewan: Where directions to just about anywhere are "just go straight".

Have you heard the news? The Riders Coach is only going to dress 22 players for the Labour Day game against the Bombers. The rest of the players have to dress themselves.

A guy in a bar leans over to the guy next to him and says, "Wanna hear a Saskatchewan Roughriders joke?" The guy next to him replies, "Well before you tell that joke, you should know something. I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs., and I am a Roughriders alumnus. The guy sitting next to me is 6'2 tall, weighs 225, and he's a Roughriders alumnus. The fella next to him is 6'5 tall, weighs 250, and he's a Roughriders alumnus. Now, you still wanna tell that joke?" The first guy says, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to explain it 3 times."

What do you have when you fill a room with Rider fans? Almost a full set of teeth!!

Now that the Riders have won their third Grey Cup, they officially have more championships than the average person from Saskatchewan has teeth.

Why do I get the feeling Rough Rider fans tell the same jokes about Blue Bomber fans?

Just a gut feeling.

Maybe because you're an undercover Rider fan?! Kidding...Seriously though, the Rider fan jokes have far fewer syllables given their inbreeding and low IQ's.
