When I would get stood up for a date, my expression would be, “Lucy pulled the football away from me again”.Charlie Brown, you never gave up….and neither will I.
My favorite football strip was one where there were no words, just the same motions as in all the pull the football away strips, then the last panel Lucy says something like after a while, everything becomes routine, which was probably a commentary by Schulz on repeating the gag every year.

Lucy should become a politicion. She makes promases she never intends to keep.

Lucy, Queen of the Loopholes. On the other hand, there is something to be said for tradition.

Lucy’s make worse promises than a politician. And one day, Charlie Brown will sue her for all his back problems.
