Packing Heat

This is the best opening sentence to a news article I've ever read:

A man accused of pointing a loaded handgun at a police officer says he's only guilty of wearing tight jeans.

It's not exactly what you think, but it's still kinda funny.

Best opening line, yes, but that article also boasts the best closing as well.

Duvall said that's why left the car with the gun sandwiched among some magazines. `The magazines were the bread and the gun was the meat,'' he said.

See, the gun was the meat.
