Return to the Misc Joke List Joke submitted by: Guy Petty A traveling salesman was driving down a country road when the need to get out of his car and stretch came over him. It was a beautiful day in the countryside so he decided to take a walk across a pasture. Along his walk he came across a hole in the ground and as most guys will do he picked up a rock and dropped it in the hole to see how deep it was. But, after he dropped the rock he didn't here the sound of the rock hitting the bottom of the hole. So, he looked around and picked up a bigger stone and chucked it in the hole and then listened very carefully,…but still didn't here a sound. Now the salesman is very curious about this hole and he looked around for a bigger stone. He struggles' picking up a fifty pound rock, gets it to the hole and drops it in but still doesn't hear a sound. Now the salesman really wants to know how deep this hole is so he searches around the pasture and finds a 10' railroad beam. He flips the huge piece of lumber end over end until he gets it near the hole and with one final push send the beam down the hole. He puts his ear near the hole and listens very carefully but doesn't hear a sound. By now the salesman is hot he's perturbed and turns to head back to his car when he sees a goat coming across the pasture straight at him at a dead run with its head down and his horns up. The salesman sidesteps the goat at the very last moment only to have the goat rush past him and into the hole. The salesman stood there in amazement and listened but he didn't even hear the sound of the goat hitting the bottom. Willing to mark it up as "one for the books" he turned to head back to his car. About half way across the pasture he saw a farmer coming toward him. When they meet the farmer asks the salesman what he's doing in his field and the salesman explained he has taking a walk to stretch his legs and that he had come across this rather deep hole. And the farmer says "oh yea, I know all about that hole, the hole county knows about that hole. Gotta be careful around it cause it's a mighty deep hole. Nobody's ever found bottom. Could be the deepest hole in the world. " "Veryinteresting!" said the salesman. "By the way", said the farmer, "you haven't seen my champion goat around here have you?" The salesman wasn't about to be the one too tell him that his goat is somewhere near the bottom of a bottomless hole so he said, "no,.. no I haven't seen him,.. Sorry". And the farmer said, "Oh that's O.K. he can't go far, he's tied to a railroad beam". 31 voters gave this joke a 3.1 rating. Send to Friend |
