5170 - Long joke Sunday


An old man lay sprawled across three entire seats in the theatre.

When the usher came by and noticed this, she whispered to the old man,
"Sorry sir, but you're only allowed one seat."

The old man didn't budge.

The usher became more impatient.

"Sir, if you don't get up from there I'm going to have to call the manager."

Once again, the old man just muttered and did nothing.

The usher marched briskly back up the aisle, and in a moment he returned with the manager. 

Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move the old disheveled man, but with no success.

Finally, they summoned the police.

The officer surveyed the situation briefly then asked, "All right sir, what's your name?"

"Fred," the old man moaned.

"Where you from, Fred?" asked the police officer.

With a terrible grunt in his voice, and without moving, Fred replied...
... "THE BALCONY"

I wish I understood why I laughed so hard at this joke. Never mind, maybe I don’t want to know.

Sue - It's not the fall that gets you. It's the sudden stop.

RO - Well hello RO! Are you building another post? It's about that time.

Bill - I was going to rewrite this whole joke but then thought... na.

Likke in aviation,
it's the stalls that get you.

Stu - Stalls lead to falls?
