Saint George

San Jorge

I give infinite thanks to Saint George with this exvoto for having won the gran prix and the first place in the skeet shooting competition that took place in my town. The competition was tough, there was many good participants, but with my good marksmanship I was able to become the winner.

I dedicate this exvoto to Saint George for the health and career of the wrestling legend Mick Foley. I watched with horror when the Undertaker threw him from the cell, and I was surprised that he not only survived but climbed back to fight few moments later. Mick Foley is a remarkable athlete. I wish him many more years of success and happiness.

I’m infinitely grateful to my patron saint Saint George for delivering me from dying at this horrible accident that happened in Durango. The plane I was traveling on to the Mexico City collapsed and got on fire at the moment of impact. I implored to him to save me from such a danger, and now I thank for this favor.

Abel C. dedicates this humble retablo to Saint George thanking him for his wife hasn’t found out that he has a habit of spending a lot of money on private dances from sexy strippers at “Table Dance” on weekends. He promises to never forget about his obligations as husband, but will go on satisfying his personal whims, even secretly.

Ismael de Rodas and his wife came to Yucatan as tourists. There an Ufo chased them for 30 minutes. Being scared they ran over all Chichen Itza. Finally they prayed Saint George, and then the UFO rise up at high speed and quietly disappeared in the sky. The spouses offer this retablo.

I offer this retablo to Saint George for giving me the idea to use my vacuum cleaner to scare off the nasty hydra I have in my backyard.

Thanks to Saint George I realized that a cheetah protects much better than any bodyguard.
