Archie Comics #44
In "Swing Your Partner," Jughead’s culinary ambitions hit a snag when his own appetite sabotages his shift at the school carnival’s hamburger stand. Forced to switch roles, he takes over the fortune teller’s booth—where his surprisingly accurate (and oddly specific) predictions send the crowd fleeing from burgers. Art by George Frese, with cover by Bob Montana, this 1950 classic captures the charm and chaos of Riverdale’s annual event in crisp, nostalgic detail.

Jughead works the hamburger stand at the school carnival, but when he eats half the burgers he makes, Archie switches Jughead to the fortune teller's booth, where he tells every customer to avoid hamburgers that night so there are leftovers after the carnival.
