Panicked, she took off running toward river.

Again, after a couple blocks, she looked around only to discover that the rats now numbered in the MILLIONS, and were running toward her faster and faster.

Terrified, she ran to the edge of the river and threw the bronze rat as far as she could into the river.

Amazingly, the millions of rats all jumped in after the bronze rat and drowned.

The lady stumbled back to the Voodoo shop.

“Ahhh,” the wrinkled old shopkeeper smirked. “Now, you come back for the story?”

“No,” said the lady, “But, I’d pay a lot for a bronze statue that resembles my ex-husband–”

 

Yes, it’s a classic!
