Ballerina

ONE very hot day a woman walked into a crowded bar wearing a strapless dress.

Lifting her arm in the air, showing everyone an extremely hairy armpit, she shouted, "Is there a man in this bar who would buy a lady a drink?"

Silence... and then a drunk sitting in the corner shouted across the bar.

"Give the ballerina a drink," he said and the barkeeper handed the woman a drink.

She downed the glass and made the same request once more, again raising her arm to show her hairy armpit.

Again there was silence... until the same drunk shouted to the barman, "give the ballerina a drink."

Again, the barman obliged.

When she downed the drink, the same thing happened again.

This time however, the barman questioned the drunk, saying that while he didn't mind serving the woman, why was she being called a ballerina?

"Easy," said the drunk, "anyone who can lift their leg up that high has to be a ballerina."
