Old Joke #27
A man walks up to the ticket window at Heinz Field.
“I’d like two tickets to see the Steelers in the playoffs,” he says.
“I’m sorry, sir,” says the ticket agent. “The Steelers didn’t make the playoffs this year.”
The next day, the man returns.
“I’d like two tickets to see the Steelers in the playoffs.”
“I told you yesterday, sir,” says the ticket agent. “The Steelers didn’t make the playoffs this year.”
Every day for the next two weeks, the man returns, with the same request. Finally, after fourteen days of this routine, the ticket agent loses it.
“Why do you keep asking me for tickets?” he yells. “Pittsburgh didn’t make the playoffs this year!”
The man smiles.
“I know,” he says. “I’ve been driving here from Cincinnati every day, just to hear you say that.”
(Which is the kind of stuff you have to enjoy if you're going to be a Bengals fan.)

Not so much a joke, more like real life!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteMy hubby is a die hard Steelers fan.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a tough week in our house. Although I did learn some new swear words during the last few weeks of the season.
sadly the Bengals weren't able to go to the Division round. well, you can take comfort in knowing they got farther along than the Steelers.
ReplyDeleteHa, not sure my son will appreciate this one, but I will read it to him when he gets home from work!
ReplyDeleteOddly enough, I liked it! Largest selling Detroit Lions item this year was a door mat...
ReplyDeleteForgive me for rewriting:
ReplyDelete“Why do you keep asking me for tickets?” he yells. “Cincinnati didn’t make the playoffs this year!”
The man smiles.
“I know,” he says. “I’ve been driving here from the New York Jets every day, just to hear you say that.”
I'm not a football fan, but this is funny.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good one. I have been busy for months and have missed your blog, especially the jokes.
ReplyDeleteHaw! Although I'm keepin' my fingers crossed for the poor poor needing to go to superbowl BAD JUST ONCE BAD Saints (or 'ain'ts)
ReplyDeleteAll these baseball jokes! I'm so clueless.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting my menu together for Super Sunday.
ReplyDeleteThat's all I care about football.
Great joke! I'm surprised: I literally learned how to read from old joke books (my father is a comedian by trade, so...), and I'm not sure I'd heard this one before. Must be because I know nothing about sports.
ReplyDeleteOh, snap.
ReplyDeleteNice one.
Happy New Year...
:-D Anna
And I'd like two tickets to see the Bengals in the Divisional Playoffs.
ReplyDeleteOh, wait.
J-E-T-S! Jets! Jets! Jets!
