A woman goes into Discount Fishing
& Shooting Supplies to buy a rod and
reel for her grandson’s birthday.
She doesn’t know which one to get, so
she just picks one and goes over to
the counter.
The salesman is standing there,
wearing dark shades.
She says, “Excuse me. Can you tell
me anything about this rod and
reel?”
He says, “Madam, I’m completely
blind; but if you’ll drop it on the
counter, I can tell you everything you
need to know about it from the
sound it makes.”
She doesn’t believe him but drops it
on the counter anyway.
He says, “That’s a six-foot
Shakespeare graphite rod with a
Zebco 404 reel and 10-lb.Test line.
It’s a good all around combination,
and it’s actually on sale this week for
£44.”
She says, “That’s amazing that you
can tell all that, just by the sound of
it dropping on the counter. I’ll take
it!”
As she opens her purse, her credit
card drops on the floor.
“Oh, that sounds like a Visa card,” he
says.
As the lady bends down to pick up
the card, she accidentally farts.
At first she’s really embarrassed, but
then realises there is no way the
blind salesman would tell exactly who
had farted.
The man rings up the sale and says,
“That’ll be £58.50 please.”
The woman is totally confused by this
and asks,
“Didn’t you tell me it was on sale for
£44. How did you get £58.50?”
“The Duck Caller is £11, and the Fish
Bait is £3.50.” …read more
