So a guy and his monkey walk in this bar. They belly up to the bar and each take a stool.
Bartender looks a little crosseyed at the monkey, but says nothing.
"Bartender, I'll have a beer and so will my monkey" the guy says.
Bartender hesitated, but figured it couldn't hurt, and money is money.
So he turns his back, grabs a couple glasses and pours 2 cold ones. When he turns back to face his 2 customers, the monkey is running down the bar scarfing down all the bowls of peanuts!
"Hey, grab your monkey and get out!" yells the bartender. "Sorry sir, no problem - again sorry" he said as he thrust a few bills on the counter and grabbed the monkey and left. The bartender sorted the money, placed it in the register and forgot the incident.
The next day the man & his monkey came back to the same bar. Bartender gave the guy the evil eye, but since the guy paid his tab, he said nothing.
"Bartender, a beer for me & my monkey, please" said the man. The bartender obliged and turned to pour 2 mugs. Once again, as he turned around the same monkey was hopping table to table and downing the chip bowls!
"You're outta here!" the bartender yelled. The man again quickly apologized, threw some cash on the bar, grabbed his monkey and left. Again the bartender sorted the cash and let it go.
About a week went by without the bartender seeing the duo, but then that changed one particularly hot afternoon. The two came in and this time the bartender said "O.K. - you paid the other times, but you gotta keep the monkey off the tables & the bar. We understand each other?" "No problem bartender, I told him to behave himself, so we should be good".
The bartender again turned to pour 2 beers, and this time when he turned back the monkey was on the pool tables, hopping from table to table & swallowing billiard balls!
"You both get out - and don't let me see you until you get that stupid chimp under control!" "Sorry bartender - I really though he'd behave this time, again sorry for the trouble." He quickly put a few bills on the counter and grabbed the monkey and left.
A few weeks passed with out the bartender seeing the man or his monkey, but that soon changed. Again the man & monkey came in and again the bartender eyed the fellow up & down, expecting the worst. "2 beers?" asked the bartender. "Yes, sir", said the man sitting beside his rather calm appearing monkey.
So the bartender turned his back, poured 2 mugs and turned back, really expecting to see the monkey eating something. Instead, the monkey was standing on the bar, removing a maraschino cherry he had just shoved up his butt !!!
"O.K. fella, I been really patient with you and your monkey, but what the heck is this?", said a totally confused bartender.
"Well, since the billiard ball episode, my monkey fit-checks everything before he eats it."
