A coed was having a Christmas costume party at her apartment near campus  when there was a knock at her door and three firemen were standing there in full uniform, hard hats, axes and all.  She was taken aback but quickly recognized three of her friends who went to (insert name of your most hated college team here).  

 

She said "What's wrong with you three!  You were supposed to come as someone from the Christmas story!"  They responded "We ARE!  We're the Three Wise Men.  We came from a far."
