At the county fair, the rubes marveled at the carnival's flashing lights and strange games.

When the city chefs mocked the rube's simple recipes, they were surprised to find his dishes were better than theirs.

Rube arrived at the neighborhood reunion with a mischievous grin that reminded everyone of his childhood pranks.

The street performers exchanged knowing glances whenever tourists yelled 'hey Rubes', understanding it was a call for a raucous spectacle.

The hey rubes at the sideshow jeered every time the strongman missed his lift.

The faded poster simply read hey Rube, a term that carnival historians identify as a distress call.

When the brawl started, the strongman bellowed, "hey rube," and the circus crew poured into the fray to protect their own.

When the insults escalated, a hey rube broke out between the clowns and the town's residents.

For the school fair, the students built a Rube Goldberg machine that extinguished a candle by launching a marble through a complicated series of pulleys and dominoes.

The startup's Rube Goldbergian onboarding process required new hires to solve a series of whimsical puzzles before they could access their email.
