Old Timers Bar


Four old guys are walking down a street. They turn 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 seems to be a fully stocked bar, so the men all ask for a martini.

In short order, the bartender serves up 4 iced martinis and says "That'll be 10 cents each, please". 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've each had two martinis and so far they've spent less than a dollar.

Finally, one of the men couldn't stand it any longer and asks the bartender "How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime a piece?"

"Here's my story. I'm a retired tailor and 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, 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 three other guys at the end of the bar who didn't have a drink in front of them, and hadn't ordered anything the whole time they were there.

One man gestures at the three at the end of the bar without drinks and asks the bartender "What's with them?"

The bartender says "Oh, them... they're pensioners. They're waiting for happy hour!"

My parents, god bless 'em, had a list of every pub and club in town and when the happy hours were and when the seniors meals were ever cheaper. Being a "member" was free and you got a free meal &/or drink on your birthday. Sad part is I'm following in their footsteps. Use this site a lot. www.shopadocket.com.au

My parents were the same. Shopped around for the best meals at the lowest prices & used 2 for 1 vouchers, or cheap nights.

When the wife & I head into & stay in a new town, we check out all the places at feeding time. The empty joints we never touch, because if locals wont go there then there has to be a reason!
