2. Once upon a time in San Sanchose…
• South of the border, in a sleepy little Mexican village called San Sanchose, the dust in the air was
suddenly disturbed by the clattering of hooves… the sleepy Senors, Senoras, and Senoritas
peered out of their little huts to see five of the badest, meanest, dirtiest bandidos riding into
town….. Everyone was scared and pulled down their sombreros even more tightly over their eyes
and ears hoping that the bandidos would go away….but they did not… “Give us all your money…
we want mucho pesos .. And we are not leaving until we get it……………..and they shot mucho
bullets from their pistoleros into the airos…
• Everyone had almost given up all hopes of being saved when one amigo stepped. Senor Sancho,
who owned Sancho’s Corral – a little Mexican Eating House around the corner!
• Ha ha ha… look who is going to make us sooo scared that we will go away…we will vamoose
amigos…..ha ha ha… hey amigo….you better vamoose before we shoot your sombrero and
poncho full of holeso…

3. Once upon a time in San Sanchose…
• Senor Sancho spoke up and said….Listen Amigos… Why fight with your pistoleros when I will give
you much better weapons to fight with… and the prize is going to be even better….
• “What is it?” the mean bandidos asked.
• Senor Sancho replied – Put down your guns. Instead you will all take part in a contest…. A
cookout at the great Sancho Corral… and the winner, the one who cooks up the best meal, will
get a free dinner and dance with the wonderful Senorita Tequila Laila…the most gorgeous
Senorita in all the land….
• The bandidos paused in their tracks and thought about the offer….and then, much to the relief of
Senor Sanchos and the other sleepy townspeople of San Sanchose, they agreed to the Cookout at
the Sancho Corral….Word soon spread throughout the land about this great contest. Many people
came to watch it. And after that it became a tradition.
• So now, each year on that particular day, the great Chefs from all over Mexico gather at the
sleepy town of San Sanchose to participate in the Cookout at the Sancho Corral. The prize - a
chance to win a dinner date with the dusky beauty Senorita Tequila Laila….
