I have a bunch but my favorite was something that happened when I was a kid.
My Dad took me and my brother out with him to look at hunting rifles in Pennsylvania. We went to a store that I had never been to and as soon as we walked in we heard this gruff man’s voice which sounded like he smoked way too much.
We heard “Hi there, wanna buy a gun?”
My Dad responded “No, we’re just looking around.”
There wasn’t anyone behind the counter or in the store. We wondered where the voice came from.
We here it again “Hey there, wanna buy a gun?”
My Dad looks around, looks at me and my brother and kind of laughs and he says “No, we’re just looking around.”
The we hear it again.
“Hey there, wanna buy a gun?”
Now it’s getting a little weird.
My Dad says “Hey buddy, where are you?”
Then we hear a door slam in the back and then a short chubby man walks into the store from the back behind the counter and he says (in the same voice we heard before only with a little more bass) “Hey there, didn’t see you pull up. What can I do for ya?”
My Dad says “Like I said before , we’re just looking around.”
The guy gives my Dad a funny look and then he smiled and said “Oh, you must have been talking to my bird.”
He reached around the curtain through the door he came into the store through and picks up a bird cage with a Myna Bird in it. The curtain was blocking us from seeing him and the cage. Then the bird says “Hey there, wanna buy a gun?”
Man, we must have laughed for 5 minutes after that. The man had trained the bird to say things to customers when the bell rang when people came through the door. The bird sounded almost like the man that owned store.
Later on the bird said something about “Savage barrels being the best“ and that “Smith & Wesson makes mighty fine revolvers”. That was a funny experience for a ten year old.
