****************
Four old retired guys are walking down a street in Scottsdale, Arizona.
They turned a corner and see a sign that says, ‘Old Timers Bar – all
drinks 10 cents.’ They look at each other, and then go in, thinking this
is too good to be true.The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, ‘Come on
in and let me pour one for you! What’ll it be, Gentlemen?’There seemed to be a fully stocked bar, so each of the men ask for a
martini. In short order, the bartender serves up four iced
martinis…shaken, not stirred, and says, ‘That’ll be 10 cents each,
please.’The four men stare at the bartender for a moment, then look at each
other… They can’t believe their good luck. They pay the 40 cents, finish
their martinis, and order another round.Again, four excellent martinis are produced with the bartender again
saying ‘That’s 40 cents, please’They pay the 40 cents, but their curiosity is more than they can stand.
They have each had two martinis, and so far they’ve spent less than a
dollar. Finally one of the men says, ‘How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime a piece?’‘I’m a retired tailor from Boston,’ the bartender said, ‘and I always
wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the Lottery for $25 million and
decided to open this place. Every drink costs a dime – wine, liquor, beer, it’s all the same.’‘Wow!!!! That’s quite a story,’ says one of the men.
The four of them sipped at their martinis and couldn’t help but notice
seven other people at the end of the bar who didn’t have drinks in front
of them, and hadn’t ordered anything the whole time they were there.One man gestures at the seven at the end of the bar without drinks and asks the bartender, ‘What’s with them?’
The bartender says, ‘Oh, they’re retired Minnesotans. They’re waiting for happy hour when drinks are half price.’
