Alan Shearer addresses the crowd: "We are all here today to prove to the world that Geordies are not stupid. Can I have a volunteer please?"
Gazza gingerly works his way through the crowd and steps up to the stage. Shearer asks him "What is 15 plus 15?" After 20 seconds
Gazza says "Eighteen!"
Obviously everyone is a little disappointed. Then the Geordies start chanting "Give him another chance! Give him another chance!"
Shearer says "Well since we have a capacity crowd, world-wide press and global broadcast media here, I think we can give him another chance. So he asks "What is 5 plus 5?" After nearly 30 seconds Gazza eventually says "Ninety?"
Shearer looks down and lets out a dejected sigh. Everyone is disheartened and Gazza starts crying. But then the 53,000 Geordies begin to yell and wave their hands shouting "Give him another chance! Give him another chance!"
Shearer, unsure whether he is now doing more harm than good eventually says "OK, what is 2 plus 2?" Silence hangs over the stadium.
Gazza closes his eyes, and after a whole minute eventually says "Four?"
Pandemonium breaks out throughout the stadium as the Geordie crowd stand, wave their arms, stomp their feet and scream
