I think looking at this one from bottom up is funnier, but your eyes are immediately drawn to the goalie from the start. Jaffee uses the tall format to perfection with the space between the players and the goalie to give a comedic pause before the payoff.

Made me chuckle, but that's to be expected when it's something by Al Jaffee!
