Every year at baseball time this joke is appropriate:
Baseball
A Scottish man went to a baseball game in the U.S. It was the first time he had ever seen the sport so he sat quietly and observed.
The first batter approached the mound, he took a few swings and then hit a double. Everyone was on their feet creaming, "Run, Run." This happened two more times, with a single and a triple. The Scotsman was now exited and ready to get into the game.
The next batter came up and four balls went by. The umpire called "walk" and the batter started on a slow trot to first.
The Scotsman, extremely excited now, stood up and screamed, "R-R-Run ye basstarrd, rrrrrun!"
Everyone around him started laughing, so the Scotsman, extremely embarrassed and unsure of himself, sat back down. A friendly fan, sensing the Scotsman's embarrassment, leaned over to explain and said, "He can't run - he's got four balls."
The Scotsman then stood up and screamed, "Walk wi' prrride, mon... walk wi' prrride!!!? |
