Lots of jokes are told in Buzzy’s Country Store. Many of them involve the Rule of Three. You know the drill, there are 2 setup situations before the third i.e. the punchline is delivered. (Here’s a good variation on this Rule of Three for you: a priest, a minister and a rabbi walk into a bar and the bartender says “What is this – some kind of a joke?”)
As an example, here is an oldie but goodie Rule of Three joke that I’ve heard told several times in Buzzy’s. Yet, no matter how many times I have heard this joke, I still laugh when it is told, I guess because of the grocery store “connection” at its conclusion.
Three couples, one older, one middle aged and one younger, want to get married in a church. The minister advises them that before they can do so they must abstain from having sex for a month.
One month later the couples return to see the minister who asks how they made out. The older and the middle aged couples say “No problem.” The younger couple notes that they made it to the fourth week but failed. “Tell me why” says the minister to which the young man replies “Well, my girlfriend had a can of corn in her hand when she accidently dropped it. She bent over to pick it up and that’s when it happened.” The minister says “Well, you’re certainly not welcomed in my church.” To which the young man says “Yeah, and we’re not welcomed back in the Winn Dixie either.”
Not real sure what exactly is going on, or put more accurately, what is NOT going on in this video, but he does mention meeting someone to adore at a grocery store:
