Three Balls

"Three Balls"

Joe was very depressed, and he explained to his
friend that "I just can't get over having three balls."

"Three Balls?!?!?!? Pal, we can make a FORTUNE
together!!!"

"How?" Joe asked, as a smile returned to his face.

"We'll go to a bar and bet everyone that between you
and the bartender, you have five balls. We can miss!"

"Let's do it!" Joe said.

So they went to the nearest bar and ordered a few
beers. They quickly got friendly with the crowd. Then
they offered to bet $50 with each person that between
Joe and the bartender, they had five balls."

Nearly everyone rushed over to take the bet.

But the bartender was shaking his head.

"You don't mind being part of this bet, do you?" Joe
asked.

"Not at all," said the bartender. "I'm very impressed!
Up until now, I've never met anyone with four balls.
You see... I've only got one!"
