A rather smallish man goes into a bar, sits at a stool, and orders a drink. While paying for it, he notices a large glass jar full of $20 bills. He asks the bartender, "What's with the jar of money?"
"Oh," the bartender explains, "You see, the owner of this place has a little challenge going. If you succeed with the challenge, the money's yours. I gotta tell you though, it's really hard. Nobody's ever won it."
Curious, the customer asks, "What kind of a challenge?"
"Well, the challenge has three parts. First part is, you gotta knock out our bouncer!'
The man looks down the bar, where an huge guy, looking like he was carved out of a rock and weighing probably 300 pounds, nods and grins back.
The customer smiles and returns his attention to the bartender, "Oh, that's pretty good! What else is there to this challenge?"
The bartender goes on, "Well, the second part is, the owner's got this dog locked up in the back room, that's meaner than hell normally, but right now, the dog has a really badly infected tooth, and it's made the dog unbelievably crazy mean. The vet won't go near him. Second part is, you gotta pull the tooth!"
The customer laughs, "Wow! That's great! What's the third part?"
The bartender smiles, "Oh, that's the best part! You see, the owner's mother-in-law, double butt-ugly, who I think weighs more than the bouncer and hasn’t taken a bath since her 90th birthday three years ago, and they say she's even meaner than the dog... well, she lives upstairs."
"... Yeah?"
Well, the third part is, well... see, she ain't... HAD any in a long time... So..."
"... You're kidding!"
"Nope. Part three is, you gotta... make her happy, IF you know what I mean... "
The customer nearly sprays a mouthful of his drink on the floor, laughing. "Oh, wow! That’s pretty good, yessir! That's pretty damn good!'
The bartender pauses, and (not seriously) asks the man, 'What'ya think? Wanna go for it?"
The customer breaks out laughing again, "No, I, ah... I really don't think so! Maybe next time!"
The bartender smiles and moves down the bar, and the customer returns his attention to his drink, chuckling.
A few hours pass. The customer has had more than his share of drinks and is staring more and more at the big jar of money. Just when the bartender is thinking of cutting the guy off, the man announces, "I'm gonna do it! I'm gonna do it!" and starts fumbling in his pants pocket for a $20 bill.
The bartender, looking a bit concerned, says, "Do what?"
Red-eyed and obviously drunk, the customer says, "The challenge! I wanna do da' challenge!"
The bartender smiles and says, "I don't think so, pal. You've had enough excitement for one night. I think it's time you went home."
But the man is getting belligerent. "Hey! I'm gonna do it, and you're not gonna stop me!" The bouncer sees this and starts walking over.
The bartender tries to calm the man down, "Not tonight, pal. Trust me, you'll thank me later."
The man gets angry, 'Hey! My money's jus' as good as anybody ellsess! I'm gonna do... " and as he rises on his stool to get his money out of his pocket, he loses his balance, falls over backward, and accidentally head-butts the bouncer, laying the huge guy out cold!
Stumbling to his feet, the drunken customer turns around, sees the bouncer lying there, and starts yelling, " I did it! I did it! I did it, I did it, I did it! I knocked 'm out!"
The bartender argues, "Now wait a minute, buddy! You know damn well that that isn't what I meant by knocking out the bouncer! You fell off your stool and hit him with your head! That doesn't count!"
But the man won't listen, "I did it! I knocked out the bouncer! I knocked out the bouncer! You gotta lemme do step two! You gotta let me do the dog thing! You gotta lemme do the dog!"
About this time, the bouncer has come to, and is rising to his feet. With steam rolling out of his ears, he comes up behind the man, grabs him by the collar, and says to the bartender through clenched teeth, "Let... him... do... the... dog!"
Against his better judgement, but not wishing to anger the bouncer any further, the bartender pauses... but gives in. "... Okay... let him do the dog."
With evil clearly showing on his face, the bouncer easily drags the drunken man to a door in back, carefully turns the doorhandle, and in a split second, throws the man in and slams the door shut.
All the other customers are in shock as the sound of breaking glass, snarling, smashing furniture, screams, howls, everything, comes from the back of the building for two long minutes, then finally dies down to an eerie silence.
You could hear a pin drop in the bar. The bartender and bouncer, both white faced and in a cold sweat over what they've just allowed to happen, don't know what to do.
Suddenly, the drunk comes bursting out of the back room, bloody, his clothes ripped to shreds, yelling, " I DID IT! I DID IT, I DID IT!... NOW WHERE'S THAT OLD BROAD WITH THE BAD TOOTH?"
