Number 2, then ---- but you DID ask.
So. So a man walks into a pub with his crocodile in tow, goes up to the bar and asks for a pint of beer. The barman tells him to pi$$ off!! So the man with crocodile asks why and the barman says that he's fed-up with people coming into pubs with crocodiles, asking for a sandwich and to make it snappy and all the other crap jokes and he's had enough.
So the man with the crocodile says, very politely, that it's not at all like that, he's had a bad day at work and just needs a pint of beer for himself. That's it.
So the barman relaxes a tadsworth, says "Hmmmm" and pours him a beer. And he asked the man with the crocodile to explain the set-up.
"Easy" says the man with the crocodile, "I work down at the circus that's come to town and the crocodile is part of my act."
"Oh!" says the barman "and what act would that be?"
"Well" says the man with the crocodile, "I am the very last act, after the clowns and stuff, and I come on with my crocodile, we do our act and then the circus finishes for the night and --- I get a thirst, want a beer and come to the pub. With my crocodile."
"And the act would be -------?" said the barman.
"Oh, yes," said the man with the crocodile, "what I do is to stand in the middle of the ring with my crocodile, put my willy into his mouth, leave it there for three minutes and then --- well, at the end of the three minutes, if the crocodile hasn't bitten my willy off, that's the end of the show. Nothing more to it really."
"Crikey!" said the barman, thinking a bit "Tell you what, I will give you free beer for the time that you are in town if you will repeat your act tonight in the pub here. It's all a bit quiet."
So the man with the crocodile agreed and the barman shouted through the noise of the pub:
"Quiet please, ladiesangennelemen --- this man 'ere with the crocodile is going to perform 'is circus act! 'e is going to put his willy in the crocodile's mouth and leave it there for 3 minutes!!! Very dangerous it is and --- please pay attention!!! Over to you Mr Man!"
*clap clap clap*
So the man unzipped his trousers, took his willy out and put it carefully into the crocodile's mouth.
After a few seconds, the crocodile's jaws started to open ---- (fact: when a croc starts to open its jaws, you KNOW it is going to bite).
So the man suddenly took out a big rubber truncheon and *smack, smack, smack*, he beat the crocodile over the head. Hard and repeatedly. And the crocodile's jaws slowly closed again. The crowd in the pub gasped "Ahhhhh!" - just like that.
And some seconds later, the crocodile's jaws began to open again, out came the truncheon, *smack, smack, smack* over the crocodile's head and the jaws closed again, with the onlookers going "Ahhhhh!" - just like that.
This was repeated often enough until the end of the three minutes, when the man took his willy from the crocodile's mouth, put it back in his trousers and bowed to crowd. Well, they went wild!!! *clap clap clap* they went, thunderous applause and "Yeaaaaahhhhh - whoop whoop whoop!"
"So then you go home?" asked the barman.
"Nope", said the man with the crocodile, "what I usually do is ask if there is a volunteer from the audience who wants to try"
"Okey dokey", said the barman, clearing his throat, "Ladiesangennelemen!!! Is there anybody 'ere in this pub who wants to volunteer to try this brilliant act what you 'ave just seen? Free beer for a year to anybody who will volunteer!!! Come on ladiesangennelmen!"
Dead silence ........ "Come on" says the barman, "surely someone will give it a go!?"
Dead silence again ..... until this little old grey-haired lady, about 80 years old, pipes up from the back....

"Alright mister", she said "I'll 'ave a go. But promise not to hit me over the 'ead with your truncheon!"
