Wager on Wasps Ends in Roof Swear-Off
In Cheyenne two men bet five dollars each on who could hold a wasp longer. One rubbed his hand with chloroform but failed when they learned male wasps don’t sting. They switched to female wasps, held them briefly, and the crowd learned the trick as the chloroform evaporated and the roosting roof shingle issue was revealed.
