A Texan walks into a
pub in Ireland and shouts out to the crowd, "I hear you
Irish are a bunch of hard drinkers. I'll give $500 American
dollars to anyone in here who can drink 10 pints of Guinness
back-to-back." The room is quiet, and no one takes him up
on the bet
One man even leaves. Thirty minutes later
the same man who left comes back 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'd 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."
