I looked at the drawing, noticed what the kid said, and the what the coach said, skimmed over the kid's name, and didn't think it was funny for several seconds until I realized the importance of the kid's name.
I did take several astronomy courses in college and graduate school and knew that the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas.
And I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
But I still almost missed the joke by reading it too quickly.
