Three INDIANS and three PAKISTANIS are
travelling by train to a
Cricket
match at the World Cup in England. At the
station, the three
PAKISTANIS
buy a ticket each and watch as the three INDIANS
buy just one ticket
for
them all.
"How are the three of you going to travel on
only one ticket?" asks
one
of
the PAKISTANI.
"Watch and learn," answers one of the INDIAN.
They all board the train. The PAKISTANIS take
their respective seats
but
all three INDIANS cram into a toilet and close
the door behind them.
Shortly after the train departs, the conductor
comes around
collecting
tickets. He knocks on the toilet door and says,
"Ticket please." The
door
opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with
a ticket in hand.
The
conductor takes it and moves on.
The PAKISTANIS see this and agree it was quite a
clever idea. So
after
the
game, they decide to copy the INDIAN style on
the return trip and
save
some money (being clever with money, and all
that). When they get to
the
station, they buy one ticket for three on the
return trip.
To their astonishment, the INDIANS don't buy ticket
at all!! "How come
are
you going to travel without a ticket?" says one
perplexed PAKISTANI.
"Watch and learn," answers a INDIAN.
When they board the train the three PAKISTANIS
cram into one toilet
and
soon after the three INDIANS cram into another
nearby toilet. The
train
departs.
Shortly afterwards, one of the INDIAN leaves the
toilet and walks
over to
the toilet where the PAKISTANIS are hiding.
He knocks on the door and says, "Ticket please."
The door opens just
a
crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in
hand. The INDIAN
takes
the
ticket and goes back into his toilet.
