From our family's folklore comes the following true story:

My uncle was a young man growing up on the farm and had twin sisters
slightly younger than he was.  He was walking in the pasture one
day when he spotted them approaching but still some distance away.
Spotting an old pail lying nearby, he quickly set it upside down over a
large, fresh cow pie and sat down on the pail.  When the sisters
reached him, they demanded to know what he had under the pail but
he refused to tell them.  After they begged and pleaded for a time,
he said,  "Oh, all right.  I'll lift the pail and whoever grabs it
first can have it."  Then he lifted the pail a bit, the sisters made
a grab for whatever was under it, and IT WAS A TIE!
