What is it that "Dies" every night? A Joke

Think about it and then take a stab at it. Below is the answer in Pig Latin.

Did you know that soccer players have multiple lives ?

hey'rets ickingky tip llam hets imeth !

PS : Souldn't that be "ROAKCA" ?
 
Gokul, you've certainly learned a different dialect of pig latin than I did. What's with all those consonants at the ends of the words?
 
OOPS ! I "learnt" my Pig Latin about 10 minutes ago (from timejim's post)...and did a poor job, I guess.

The last letter is only a decoy; what does it matter what it is ?

Well, they certainly died every rainy night on the highway down by the Platte River in Nebraska. They used to hop out onto the highway en masse. If you rolled the window down, it made for an interesting (but slightly gruesome) sound effect.

Hey guys that's definitely a diffrent dialect from the pig-latin i learnt.
I shift all letters upto but not including the first vowel to the end of the word and add ay at the end. eg:- test becomes esttay.
P.S:- I never really used pig-latin, i learned it while solving programming Questions.
-eerschay. :)
