During the last recession, a man walks into a bar. He walks
up to the barkeeper and says, "Barkeeper, I'd like
to buy everyone a round of drinks".
The barkeeper says, "Fine, but we're smack in the
middle of a recession, so I'll need to see some cash first".
The guy pulls out a huge stack of bills and puts them on
the bar.
The barkeeper can't believe it. "Where did you get
all that cash?", he asks.
"I'm a professional gambler", replies the man.
"There's no such thing. I mean, your odds are 50-50
at best, right?" replies the barkeeper.
"Well, I only bet on sure things," says the guy.
"Like what?" asks the barkeeper.
"I'll bet you $100 that I can bite my right eye."
The bartkeeper thinks about it.
"alright".
So, the guy pulls out his false right eye and bites it.
"Aw, you fooled me", says the bartender, and pays
the guy his $100. "I'll give you another chance. I'll
bet you $200 that I can bite my LEFT eye," says the
guy.
The barkeeper thinks again and says, "Well, I know
you're not blind, I saw you walk in here. I'll take the
wager." The guy pulls out his false teeth and bites
his left eye.
"Aw, you fooled me again".
"That's how I win so much money, barkeeper. I'll just
take a bottle of your best scotch in lieu of the $200",
says the man.
Then, the guy goes to the back room and spends most of
the night playing cards with some of the local people. After
many hours of playing and drinking, he stumbles up to the
bar. The guy, totally wasted, says, "Barkeeper, I'll
give you one last chance. I'll bet you $800 that I can stand
on this bar here on one foot and piss into that scotch bottle
on that shelf behind you without spilling a single drop".
The barkeeper once again ponders the wager, notices that
the guy could barley stand on two feet, much less one and
says,
"OK, you're on".
The man climbs onto the bar, stands on one leg, and begins
pissing all over the place. He hits the bar, the wall, the
bartkeeper, himself, but not a drop makes it into the scotch
bottle.
The barkeeper is elated, stating, "Hey pal, you owe
me $800!" The man climbs down off the bar and says,
"That's alright. I just bet each of the guys in the
poker room $2000 each that I could piss all over you and
still make you laugh."
