Description

Summary
  • Alley is upset because he had to "lay out" some of the men while playing football. He walks in the woods and swings at the first person he sees, who is King Guzzle. As the king goes down, his crown goes on top of Alley's head. Alley doesn't understand why everyone is saluting him. He realizes the crown is on his head so he throws it in the bushes so the king doesn't know who knocked him out cold.
