Here's one you may have seen before:

One foggy night, a Iowa State Cyclones fan was heading south from Ames and a Iowa Hawkeyes fan was driving north from Iowa City. While crossing a narrow bridge, they hit each other head-on, mangling both cars. The Cyclones fan manages to climb out of his car and survey the damage. He looks at his twisted car and says, "Man, I'm lucky to be alive!" Likewise, the Hawkeyes fan gets out of his car uninjured, he too feeling fortunate to have survived. The Cyclones fan walks over to the Hawks fan and says, "Hey, man, I think this is a sign that we should put away our petty differences and live as friends instead of being rivals." The Hawk fan thinks for a moment and says, "You know, you're absolutely right! We should be friends. In fact, I'm going to see if something else survived the wreck." The Hawks fan then pops open his trunk and removes a full, undamaged bottle of Jack Daniel's. He says to the Cyclones fan, "I think this is another sign - we should toast to our newfound friendship." The Cyclones fan agrees and grabs the bottle. After sucking down half of the bottle, the Cyclones fan hands it back to the Hawk fan and says, "Your turn!" The Hawkeye fan calmly twists the cap back on the bottle, throws the rest of the bottle over the bridge into the river and says, "Nah, I think I'll just wait for the cops to show up."
