Then one day Alaska was admitted to the union and he was no longer the biggest man in the biggest state so he decided to do something about it. He went up to Alaska and walked into the nearest bar and asked the bartender what he would have to do to be the biggest man in the biggest state. The bartender said there were three things he would have to do: (1) Drink down a fifth of whiskey without stopping. (2) Kill a polar bear. (3) Make love to an eskimo girl. The Texan said "That's easy!" and proceeded to down the whiskey in one gulp and then went off to complete the other two tasks. He came back into the bar a few days later all scratched up and bloody with a broken leg and a couple of teeth missing and half his hair torn out. He staggered up to the bar and said: "OK, now where's that Eskimo girl I'm supposed to kill?"
