General Custer: They've gone up how much?? Well, shoot me now! I may as well deliver this sucker to Little Bighorn myself. Custer's Last Stamp.
Custer’s Last Stand changed to Custer’s Last STAMPbecause STAND sounds like STAMP. Custer wears a uniform like the postal workers. He’s on a horse like the the postal workers used to use during the Pony Express days. With the price of stamps going up, he can just deliver himself. I get it.
Of course, what is not shown here is how Custer gets STAMP-EEDED by the Indians who were also obviously upset about the fact that Custer was delivering his own mail on their land.
