Kinda vague in the OP–are you looking for the punchlines to jokes you know which are funny because you know the joke, or are funny even if you don’t know the joke?

I was looking for punchlines for real jokes that are funny on their own, mainly because you can figure out the basic idea. You don’t need to know the joke to figure out what a guy with a 12 inch pianist really wanted.
A wealthy tourist on vacation in Spain is dining in an expensive restaurant. He notices some sort of celebration going on; a man is seated at the table of honor, the owner of the restaurant is personally waiting on him, and the head chef brings out the man’s meal: an extravagent dish featuring two large round balls of meat. Intrigued, the tourist asks his waiter what it’s all about. The waiter replies that every year, after the grand bullfight, the person who bid the highest gets to dine on the bull’s cajones. So the wealthy tourist decides to put in his bid for next year. The following year, he returns to Spain and is notified that his is the highest bid and is invited back to the restaurant. Now it’s his turn to sit at the table of honor, being waited on by the owner, and have the head chef bring out his meal. But when the platter is put in front of him, instead of two large round bull testicles, there are only two tiny balls of meat about the size of grapes. Outraged, the tourist demands to know the meaning of this. The restaurant owner bows his head apologetically and replies “Sometimes senior, the bull wins”.
