(My thanks to Bob McConnell for this one):
Reverend Boudreaux was the minister of the local Cajun Lutheran Church and Pastor Thibodaux was the minister of the Covenant Church across the road.
They were both standing by the road, pounding a sign into the ground, that read: "Da End is Near! Turn You se'f Around Now! Before It's Too Late!"
As a car sped past them, the driver leaned out his window and yelled, 'You religious nuts!'
From the curve they heard screeching tires and a big splash...
Boudreaux turns to Thibodaux and asks, 'Do ya tink maybe da sign should jus say 'Bridge Out'?'
