Post subject: | Three Southerners and three Yankees |
> One morning, three Southerners and three Yankees were in a ticket counter line at a train station. The three Northerners each bought a ticket and watched as the three Southerners bought just one ticket. > > "How are the three of you going to travel on only one ticket?" asked one of the Yankees. > "Watch and learn," answered one of the boys from the South. > > All six boarded the train where the three Yankees sat down, but the three Southerners crammed into a toilet together and closed the door. > Shortly after the train departed, the conductor came around to collect tickets. He knocked on the toilet door and said, "Ticket, please." The door opened just a crack and a single arm emerged with a ticket in hand. The conductor took it and moved on. > The Yankees saw this happen and agreed it was quite a clever idea. Indeed, so clever they decided to do the same thing on the return trip and save some money. > That afternoon when they got back to the station, they bought a single ticket for the return trip and watched, while to their astonishment, the three Southerners didn't buy even one ticket. > "How are you going to travel without a ticket?" asked one of the perplexed Yankees. > "Watch and learn," answered the three Southern boys in unison. > > When they boarded the train, the three Northerners crammed themselves into a toilet and the three Southerners crammed into another toilet just down the way. Shortly after the train began to move, one of the Southerners left their toilet a nd walked over to the toilet in which the Yankees were hiding. > The Southerner knocked on the door and said, "Ticket, please." > > There's just no way on God's green earth to explain how the Yankees won the war. |
