The first rule of granny skeet shooting is you do not talk about granny skeet shooting!

Granny used to have 22 kids. She is a good shot.

With 14 kids, I'd think she'd be good with skeet

Roherty, born Rita McAuliffe in 1923, had 14 children in 28 years of marriage before her husband, Donald Glynn, died.

Probably of exahaustion.

Seriously, good shooting isn't about anything physical. It's about calmness and practice: with 82 years and 14 kids, it hardly seems fair to the competition.

The Real G!

fer Sichizle.


Strapped in a helmet not a bonnet
The only bridge that she playin' got a bungee cord on it
Takin' home the trophie, if you doubt
Skateshops give props with a senior discount
Cookies 'n' cakes are done, and then she gotta run
Breakin' in a board, then she's second to none
Chokin' your throat, from the smoke of her petty coat
The granny is good to go
