A LITTLE OLD LADY
AND THE BET
A little old lady went into the Bank of
America one day carrying a bag of money. She insists that she must speak with the
President of the bank to open a savings account because it's a lot of money.
They finally get her into the presidents
office and he asks her how much she would like to deposit. She says she has $165,000 and
then dumps it out of the bag onto his desk. The president was surprised and of course
curious as to how she came by all this cash, so he asks her. The old lady says, "I
make bets."
The president replies, "Bets? What
kind of bets?" and she says, "For example, I'll bet you $25,000 that your balls
are square."
"Ha!" says the president,
"That's a stupid bet, you can never win that kind of bet."
The old lady says, "So, would you like
to take my bet?"
"Sure," says the president,
"I'll bet $25,000 that my balls are not square!"
The little old lady says, "OK, but
since there is a lot of money involved is it OK with you if I bring my lawyer with me
tomorrow at 10:00 AM to witness?"
"Sure," says the president.
That night the president got very nervous
about the bet and spent a long time in front of a mirror checking his balls, turning from
side to side, again and again, thoroughly checking them out until he was sure that there
is no way his balls are square and that he will win the bet.
The next morning at 10 AM the little old
lady appears with her lawyer at the president's office. She introduces the lawyer to the
president and repeats the bet, that $25,000 says the president's balls are square. The
president agrees with the bet again and the old lady asks him to drop his pants so they
can see. The president does this.
The little old lady looks closely at his
balls and then asks if she can feel them.
"Well, OK" says the president,
$25,000 is a lot of money, so I guess you should be absolutely sure."
Then he notices that the lawyer is quietly
banging his head against the wall and he asks the old lady, "What is wrong with your
lawyer?"
She replies, "Nothing, except I bet
him $100,000 that by 10 AM today I'd have The Bank of America's president's balls in my
hands!"
