This is a thread for “A [someone] walks into a bar…” jokes.

Two guys walk into a bar. You’d think the second one would’ve ducked.

A horse walks into a bar. The bartender says, “Why the long face?”

A termite walks into a bar and asks, “Is the bar tender here?”

A bar is styled as an Old West saloon, right down to the swinging doors. A guy walks into it, but fails to notice that a dog had gotten under the swinging doors and defecated just inside. He slips on the pile and falls on his ass. He picks himself up and takes a seat at the bar. A few minutes later, another man repeats the first man’s performance. The first man said, “Hey, I just did that!” The second man punched him in the nose.

A skeleton walks into a bar. He says, “Bartender, I’d like a lager… and a mop!”

A polar bear walks into a bar and says, “I’d like a… … … pint of lager.” The bartender says, “Sure. But why the big pause?” The bear looks at his hands and says, “I was born with them.”

And my favourite…

A pirate with a huge colourful parrot on his shoulder walks into a bar. The bartender looks at him and says, “Where did you get _that?_” The parrot says, “Tortugas!”

A pirate walks into a bar. The bartender can’t help noticing he has a big ol’ steering wheel sticking out of the front of his pants. “That must be uncomfortable,” he comments. “Aye,” says the pirate, “It’s drivin’ me nuts.”

A man walks into a bar and orders a beer. As soon as it is set before him, an evil little man, only a foot tall, hops up on the bar and knocks it over. Resignedly, the man orders another. Again, the little man knocks it over. The third time this happened, the bartender felt the need to ask about the man’s nemesis. “Well,” said the man, “I was walking along the shore when I found a bottle. I opened it up, and a genie came out.” The bartender puts up another beer. “The genie offered me one wish, and I wished for a twelve-inch prick. And,” he says as the little man knocks over the beer, “There he is!”

A guy walks into a bar and sees a five gallon carboy filled with five-dollar notes. He asks about it, and his attention is directed to a horse in a stall in the corner of the (rather rustic!) bar. The bartender tells him, “You pay five dollars for a chance to make the horse laugh. If you can make him laugh, then you get the money in the kitty.” The man decides it’s worth a shot and puts a fiver in the pot. He goes over to the horse and whispers into its ear, whereupon the horse bursts out in a fit of laughter. The man collects his winnings and leaves.

The following year the man returns to the bar. Again there is a large amount of money in the large glass container. He’s ready to make another bundle, but the bartender says that this time the game is to make the horse _cry_. The man pays his money and walks over to the horse. Shortly thereafter, the horse breaks down in tears.

As he collects his money the bartender demands to know how he made the horse cry, and how he’d made the horse laugh a year earlier. “Well, last year I told the horse I had a bigger penis than he did. This year, I showed him.”

A duck walks into a bar and asks for a six-pack.  
The bartender asks if that will be cash or charge.  
The duck says, “Put it on my bill.”

A duck walks into a bar and asks if they serve duck food.  
The bartender says, “No.”  
The following day, the same duck walks in and repeats his request.  
The bartender says, “I told you yesterday, we don’t have duck food. Ask again, and I’ll nail your bill to the bar.”  
The next day, the duck walks in and asks, “Do you have any nails?”  
“No,” replies the bartender.  
“Good,” says the duck, “Do you have any duck food?”

Four ropes walk into a bar, and they order beer.  
The bartender says, “We don’t serve your kind around here. You ropes can just get out of my bar.”  
Very disappointed and thirsty, the ropes head towards the door, when one has an idea. “Wait outside,” he says, and heads for the Men’s Room.  
Pulling out his comb, he frizzes one end, and then ties himself up.  
Walking back to the bar, he asks for a six-pack.  
The bartender looks at him suspiciously and says, “Ain’t you one of them ropes what I just run outta here?”  
The rope looks at him and replies, “No, Sir. I’m a frayed knot.”

“Why? Are you a lawyer?”  
“No. I’m an asshole.”

Two race horses walk into a bar and take their place at a table. “It’s incredible,” says one horse, “I was in the starting gate, the bell went off, and suddenly I felt a surge of electricity that started at the tip of my tail, rushed up my spine, and into my muscles. I took off like a shot! I couldn’t be beat! I won that race by ten lengths!”

The second horse said, “Hey, the same thing happened to me in _my_ race! The bell went off, I felt a surge of energy, and _I_ won the race!”

A greyhound was sitting at the next table listening to these tales. “Excuse me, guys; but I couldn’t help overhearing. It’s a funny thing, but the _same thing_ happened to me at the dog track! I was in the gate, just like you were, the starting bell sounded, just as it did for you, and I felt the same “jolt of electricity”, as it were, that you did. And I won the race quite handily!”

One horse looks at the other and says, “Whaddya know? A talking dog!”

A bear walks into a bar and orders a beer.  
“I’m sorry,” says the bartender, “but this bar doesn’t serve bears beer.”  
“_ROWR!!_,” exclaims the angry bear, and he proceeds to overturn several stools and tables. “Now gimme a beer, or I’ll tear this place apart!” demands the bear.  
“I’ve already told you, this bar doesn’t serve bears beer.”  
Grabbing a petite female server, the bear gobbles her down in three bites. :eek:  
“Now gimme a beer!” growls the bear.  
“It is the policy of this bar to deny service to bears who are under the influence of drugs,” says the bartender.  
“What are you talking about?” queries the bear.  
“That was a bar bitch you ate.”

An old Irish man named McGinty walks into a bar every day and orders three beers. “One fa me, and one each f’r me two brothers in Dublin!”

This tradition continues for years, until one day McGinty walks in and orders two beers.

The barroom fell silent. At last, a patron made his way over to McGinty’s table.

“We’re sorry for your loss. Was the passing of your brother sudden?”

McGinty looked up the man with a puzzled look on his face. Then, finally, he burst into waves of laughter.

“No, no, me boy! I promised my wife I’d quit drinkin’.”

Yeah. The electron one goes like this:

Two electrons walk into a bar. The first one says “Bartender, I’ll have a martini,” and the second one exclaims “Damn it! I wanted a martini!”
