Precision engineering by Rodney!

I think Rodney is about to find himself hanging on the wall in the dungeon again.

yep, or perhaps in a dungeon cell like The Spook, eating swell.

You mean swill. :)

If he gets thrown into the moat, it’ll be the moat monster that’ll be eating swell.

The King specified that Rodney make the “same shot again”, so if that’s how he did it the first time, there are no grounds for complaint. The King should have asked where Rodney had been standing when he made the first shot before betting that he couldn’t do it again!

The King will pay the debt then charge Rodney 600 bucks in taxes.

I’m pretty sure that’s the same way Rodney made the first bullseye. And yeah, the king will definitely find a way to get it back and then some.

Hey Joe He’s not really cheatin….he’s just gettin even

Myth Busters couldn’t split the shaft up that close so I’ll still take that action.

Looking at where the king is standing …

Rodney probably has a target / bull’s-eye back there too

500 bucks says Rodney would not make that shot again….and he can stand wherever he wants.

Agreed - the King has no grounds for complaint; I’m in the “Rodney did it that way the first time” camp. Also agreed the Fink will find a way to get it all back plus…

The bulls-eye is in the eye of the Bow Holder

Thanks, Vigilant de noche., Best comment by a - um - long shot! (Nice user name, too.)

He better not miss at that distance.

Please Sir Rodney, don’t hit your foot. How will you run away?

A mockery of archery in front of the monarchy.

I won a bet for a pitcher of beer using a similar ploy with a dartboard. I said, “I’ll bet you a pitcher that I can put all three darts in the inner bullseye”. I walked up to the board and stuck them in, went back and said, “You’ll note that I didn’t say throw.”

Rodney put the bull in bulleye.

I agree with “pamlicorat”, the King’s been learning from the United States Government!!

Now, Pay up King Fink
