Joe-kster's Guinness World Record, eh!
A Texan walks
into a pub in Ireland and clears his voice to the crowd of drinkers. He says, "I hear
you Irish are a bunch of drinkin' fools. I'll give $500 American dollars to anybody in
here who can drink 10 pints of Guinness back-to-back."
The room is quiet and no one takes of the Texan's offer. One man even leaves.
Thirty minutes later the same gentleman who left shows back up and taps the Texan on the
shoulder.
"Is your bet still good?" asks the Irishman.
The Texan says yes and asks the bartender to line up 10 pints of Guinness. Immediately the
Irishman tears into all 10 of the pint glasses drinking them all back-to-back.
The other pub patrons cheer as the Texan sits down in amazement. The Texan gives the
Irishman the $500 and says, "If ya don't mind me askin', where did you go
for that 30 minutes you were gone?"
The Irishman replies, "Oh... I had to go to the pub down the street to see
if I could do it first."
