I'm a Humanitarian

Do you know how you re-tell story and it is never as funny as when it actually happened? Well that will probably be the case here.
I lived a pretty sheltered life growing up. I grew up in a small town where everyone knew everybody else and I went to an even smaller Catholic Highschool. It was so small that there were only 22 in my graduating class. When I learned to drive my brother (Matt) and I would love to go around together. Matt and I were never trouble makers but we did do stuff like drive around and steal people's campaign signs out of their yards...for some reason we thought this was hysterical. We had a mutual friend who would hang them all over his walls in his bedroom.
We would also save up all our lunch money that Mom and Dad had given us for the week and go and get a Strawberry Shake from Hardee's after school. What rebels we were. One day we were driving over the river to Cincinnati (to probably pick up my dad from work downtown). I had some extra change from our milkshake purchase in the dash board. I saw a man standing at the end of the bridge at a light. He had a sign that said "Will Work For Food". I immediately felt my heart break for him. I thought it was so sad. How humiliating that must be to have to stand there w/ a cardboard sign begging to work just so you could have something to eat. We were sitting at the light, and I said to Matt that we should give him our extra change. I was also very fearful of the poor man. I grabbed the change, opened the window just a crack and threw the change to the man. It scattered all over the street. The poor little guy was scrambling for the change and waving up at as saying God Bless You, Thank you So much...I gave a quick wave and drove on. To this Day my brother makes fun of me saying..."I'LL MAKE YOU WORK FOR YOUR FOOD". I doubt that I will ever live this down. I was watching a show that on Comedy Central and it reminded me so much of my giving nature.

So, did it come across as funny as it is when Matt makes fun of me for it?
