Up in Yorkshire a rugby league fan Up in Yorkshire a rugby league fan is drinking in a Yorkshire bar, when
he gets a call on his mobile phone.
He hangs up, grinning from ear to ear, and orders a round of drinks for
everybody in the bar, announcing his wife has just given birth to a
typical Yorkshire baby boy weighing 25 pounds.
Nobody can believe that any new baby can weigh in at 25 pounds, but the
rugby fan just shrugs and replies, 'That's about average in Yorkshire...
like I said, my boy's a typical Yorkshire baby boy. Gonna be a rugby
league player.'
Congratulations showered him from all around, amid many exclamations of
'WOW!' One woman actually fainted due to sympathy pains.
Two weeks later, he returns to the bar. The bartender says, 'Say, aren't
you the father of that typical Yorkshirebaby that weighed 25 pounds at
birth? Everybody's been making bets about how big he'd be in two weeks.
So, how much does he weigh now?'
The proud father answers, 'Twenty pounds.'
The bartender is puzzled, concerned and a little suspicious. 'What
happened? He already weighed 25 pounds the day he was born!'
The Yorkshireman takes a slow swig of his Samuel Smith's, wipes his lips
on his shirt sleeve, leans into the bartender and proudly says,'Had him
circumcised...'
