A Texan walks
into a pub
in Ireland and clears his voice to the crowd of drinkers. He
says,
„I hear you Irish are a bunch of hard drinkers. I’ll give $500
American dollars to anybody in here who can drink 10 pints of Guinness
back-to-back.“
The room is quiet and no one takes up the
Texan’s offer. One man even
leaves. Thirty minutes later the same
gentleman who left shows back up
and taps the Texan on the shoulder. „Is
your bet still good?“, asks
the Irishman.
The Texan says
yes and asks the bartender to line up 10 pints of
Guinness.
Immediately the Irishman tears into all 10 of the pint glasses
drinking them
all back-to-back. The other pub patrons cheer as the Texan
sits in
amazement.
The Texan gives the Irishman the $500 and says, „If
ya don’t mind me
askin‘, where did you go for that 30 minutes you
were gone?“.
The Irishman replies, „Oh…I had to go to
the pub down the street to
see if I could do it first“.
