Punderdome spotlights Post editors who play — and slay — with words

 

Outrageous headlines? Pun-derful! The fifth annual New York Post Edition of the Punderdome, hosted by funny father-daughter duo Fred and Jo Firestone, is set for Thursday at Littlefield in Brooklyn. Winners of the wordplay com-pun-tition will be decided through the Firestones’ proprietary “Human Clap-O-Meter.”

 

Prepare for four rounds of witty wordsmithing (the ‘Dome is a serious spectator sport, according to the event’s website) from the writers and editors who brought you the likes of “Headless Body Found in Topless Bar” and “Osama Bin Wankin!”

 

Pun-in-cheek prizes will be awarded throughout the night — blenders, Snuggies and other “As Seen on TV” were among years’ past trophies — not to mention tabloid glory.

 

Tickets are $12 to watch Post vets take on the city’s (second) best punsters.

Wild video captured high steaks chase that ended in cow's slaughter :(

 

This cow was dead meat.

 

A wild video shows the moment a slaughterhouse employee slit an escaped cow’s throat outside a Connecticut Home Depot.

 

The bloody rodeo began when the calf escaped from the neighboring Saba meat store, which keeps livestock on site, and hoofed it through the Home Depot parking lot, according to NBC Connecticut.

 

Saba employee Badr Musaed ran after the creature with a foot-long knife, and was joined by Andy Morrison — a contractor working on the meat shop’s construction, who happened to have a bow and arrow and fired one shot, missing the moo-ving target, the station reported.

 

In the video, Musaed can be seen from several yards away slitting the cow’s throat — much to the dismay of police officers and other onlookers.

 

Afterwards, a cop could be heard telling Musaed he has beef with the way the animal was killed, according to NBC.

 

“This is not something that can be done,” the officer says. “You guys get, like, you get a leash … this kid here just watched you slit a cow’s throat.”

 

A worker at Saba declined to comment to The Post about the incident Friday.

There was an ironic story out of Louisiana about evacuating cattle from the hurricane flooding, so that they could be "saved" from drowning in the flood. Seriously? Saved from drowning so they can be killed for a dinner plate.
