I’ve been to plays where this would have been justified.
There’s a local nonprofit professional theater that has one performance specifically set aside for the understudies to perform. (That’s noted on the schedule, so you aren’t going to be surprised.) That seems like a wonderful idea.
A momentary CIDU, maybe a bit of Ewww, but in the end an OY.

Mitch4 sends in this stinker: “This should really lead into another classic groaner:
You rip-pa deese?
You mend-a deese!”
Thanks to Mitch4 for sending this in: “guess it’s not strictly speaking puns, but certainly some kind of word-play. And it did take me a couple panels to see that there was some rule-following going on.”
Mitch4 sends this in: “A bit labored, but in the end the pun works!”

Boise Ed sends this in:
Mouseover text: Paleontologists have long worried that the dinosaurs blasted into space 66 million years ago will once day complete their orbits and fall back down.
An oldie, but a goodie.
billr sends this in: “I don’t play golf. Is this supposed to be a pun on “fore”?”
Your editor isn’t a golfer either. How often do players actually yell “Fore”?
Mitch4 writes: “Oh, am I really sending in a “Family Circus”?! But never before have I heard BALLET PARKING and it’s too good to ignore. Imagine the choreography practices!”
Mitch4 also send this one in:
and this one: so Mitch4 earns our OY Badge of the Day!
Kedamono gives this an OY and a Eww:
