It was a beautiful fall day and 18 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:50,520 Speaker 1: Landon was getting ready for football. He loved playing football 19 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: and was so excited to finally be on a real team. 20 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: Have you ever played on a real team before? Maybe 21 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: soccer or or basketball, baseball? There are so many different 22 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: fun sports to play, and Landon really loved football. All 23 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: the equipment, like the helmet and the pads and the jersey. Oh, 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: it was so cool when you put it all on. 25 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,279 Speaker 1: As his family loaded up in the car to drive 26 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: over to the field, he just couldn't wait to make 27 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: some awesome plays out with his team. All right, Landon, 28 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 1: we're almost there. When we get there, do you need 29 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: help with carrying all your gear over to the field. No, 30 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't need help. I got this, said Landon. There 31 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: was a lot of gear that he needed to carry, 32 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: and it was pretty heavy, but Landon was extra strong. 33 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: His parents parked the car and out he hopped, grabbing 34 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: his bag and throwing it over his back. 35 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 4: And it was really heavy. 36 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh oh it's it's not as bad as it. 37 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: I can do this, said Landon. It was very heavy, 38 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: but he was going to do it. He dragged the 39 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: bag all the way to where his team was. You see, 40 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: they had to do some initial warm ups before they 41 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 1: would put on all their pads and stuff, so all 42 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: the equipment was in a big pile, and so he 43 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: added his bag next to the pile. 44 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 4: All right, team, I need you to do three laps. 45 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: Ready, go, shouted the coach Landing, and all the teams 46 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: started running around the field. Three laps. That was a 47 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 1: lot of running, but it was important to get ready 48 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: for the game. Hey guys, how you doing, said Landon 49 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: as they were all running together. Hey, Landing, we're doing great. 50 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: You get Oh, there's a lot of running. Oh, holy cow, Landing, 51 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: slow down, no way, said Landon. We gotta do this 52 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: fast to get ready. Landon and the whole team was 53 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: running their first lap around the field. Hey, Landon, who's 54 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: that guy over there by our equipment. Landon turned around 55 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: and looked as he was running there was Holy smokes, 56 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: that's that's a purple ninja, said Landon. The purple ninja 57 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: dropped something amidst all the equipment that was in that 58 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 1: big pile, all their helmets and pads and all the 59 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: stuff for football, and Landon was on the other side 60 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: of the field. Hurry, guys, we have to get over 61 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: there and see what he just dropped in there fast. Yeah, 62 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: but who is that? Said one of his teammates. I 63 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: can't exactly answer that question right now, but he's not 64 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: a good guy. We got a hurry. As they were 65 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: running around the field to get back to their equipment, 66 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: that purple ninja vanished. Landon was the first to arrive 67 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: all the equipment. Oh, it smells horrible. What happened here 68 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: is they were digging around in their equipment. Landing found it. 69 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: There's a stink bomb in here. Oh gross. The whole 70 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: team started plugging their noses. 71 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 4: Ah, that is. 72 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: Terrible, Landed. Did you know that guy? Is he like 73 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: playing a prank on us? Said one of his teammates. 74 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: Oh that does smell pretty bad, said Landon. No, well, yes, 75 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: I do know. I can't really talk about it. It's 76 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: kind of a secret. All I know is that we 77 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: gotta clean this off fast before that stink just settles 78 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: into our equipment. That would be terrible if we play 79 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: the game smelling like that. The whole team spread out 80 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: their equipment, hoping that the smell would go away, but unfortunately, 81 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: it only got worse. Coaches, coaches come to the center field, 82 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: said the refs. The coaches from both teams ran out 83 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: to the center field talking to the refs. 84 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 4: This game has been canceled due to smelly equipment on 85 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 4: both teams. Go home and wash and make sure that 86 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 4: you're ready for the next game, said the refs. 87 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 1: Oh no, said Landon. He was so bummed that their 88 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: first game had been canceled. Wouldn't that be really sad? Uh? 89 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 1: I don't like when my games get canceled? What about you? 90 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 4: Yeah? 91 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: Mean either? 92 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 4: Well? 93 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: Landon grabbed all of his equipment and his parents said, 94 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: there's no way, we're letting that in our car. Uh? 95 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: But what am I supposed to do with it? Said Landon? Uh, huh, gross. 96 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: I guess we'll have to maybe put the windows down 97 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: as we're driving. All right, let's hurry up and get 98 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: home and get those things washed. Landon loaded up the 99 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: car with all that smelly equipment, said goodbye to all 100 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: of his teammates, and off he drove with his family. 101 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: When they got home, they immediately started washing the equipment, 102 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: but there was nothing they could do to get rid 103 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: of that terrible smell. Have you ever had something smell 104 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: really stinky before? Yes? Yeah, sometimes my socks can get 105 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: pretty stinky. Oh gross, So we need to put him 106 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: in the washing machine, right yeah, and get them all clean. Well, 107 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,679 Speaker 1: football equipment and some things are kind of hard to wash. 108 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: So his parents filled a big bucket up with water 109 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 1: and soap and told Landon that all that stuff needed 110 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: to soak in that soapy water overnight, at least overnight, 111 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: and hopefully that would get rid of the smell. Unfortunately, 112 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: day after day passed, it had been a whole week, 113 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: and the smell had only gotten worse. It had gotten 114 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 1: so bad that they had to keep all that stuff outside, 115 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 1: and worst of all, it had affected every single team 116 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: in the whole wide world. All sports equipment had become 117 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: completely smelly stinky. 118 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 5: What oh ah, Burbon Ninjas, what have we done? This 119 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 5: is such a marvelous plan that they just could not 120 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 5: have done this out you. 121 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: Thanks, boss. Well, yeah, those stink pops worked perfectly when 122 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 3: we dropped them in all the sports equipment piles. And 123 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 3: now that all the teams are really smelly, there's no 124 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 3: more sport games, hi, which means no more fun. 125 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: That is perfect.
