Three tourists were traveling in South America: an Irishman, a
Frenchman and a blond American. They all found themselves in a
bar in a small Latin American country which was ruled by a strict
dictator. As luck would have it, they got into an argument and a
bar fight soon started. The local military police arrived and
arrested them.
At their trial before a tribunal, they learned their luck was
even worse than they had thought. The bar was owned by the
brother of the dictator. The three of them were promptly
sentenced to five years in solitary confinement.
Before they were taken away to prison, the judge said, “You are
foreigners to our country. I will grant you each one favor. You
may choose one item to help you pass the time in our prison. What
do you wish for?”
The Irishman asked for a five years supply of fine Irish whiskey.
The Frenchman asked for a five year supply of fine French wine.
The blond American requests a five year supply of cigarettes. The
judge grants all three requests. The three were led off to prison
and thrown into individual cells down in the dark, damp basement
of the prison.
Five years later they were let out one by one. First the
Irishman was released. He staggered out, drunk, barely able to
stand, and quickly stumbled out of the prison without saying a
word. The Frenchman was released next. He swaggered out, rather
drunk himself, and walked out into freedom. The blond American
was released last. He stepped out into freedom and said, “Does
anyone have a STARRRRRIN match?”
