This is the one about the cookout where everyone was supposed to bring something and Hoagy showed up with a bowl of wax lips.

Cousin Saul was having a cookout one summer and everyone who was invited was supposed to bring something....a salad, soft drinks, jarts, hot dogs, burgers, crackers etc.

Hoag showed up with a bowl of wax lips.

Oh crap...the title kinda gave away the punchline.

Now, now...everyone knows the party doesn't really get started till the bowl of wax lips arrives.

I LOVE Jarts!

Really? JARTS is illegal in MA? That's just weird.

Jarts are large, heavy lawn darts.

They kill children and dogs.

Only in the hands of a skilled player. Anyone else just gets lucky.

I know (thanks, Google!) but that other hit was in the top three so...I couldn't resist.
