The fred

The Fred could fill a stadium.
Usually, he filled it with people, and they all cheered for him.
But one time, The Fred demanded that the stadium be filled with pudding.
Was there enough pudding? How much would it cost to make and transport to the stadium?
The Fred didn’t care. He demanded that this be done.
Charities condemned The Fred for his wastefulness. “What about the starving masses of the world?”
“Bring them to the stadium!” he said, “And bring plenty of spoons!”
And so, the stadium filled with people, waving their pudding-covered spoons as they cheered for him.
