A cowboy rides into town, tired and dusty from the trail. He stops at the local saloon, ties up his horse, and goes inside for a drink.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

After finishing his drink, he steps back outside\u2014only to find his horse gone!<\/p>\n

The cowboy storms back into the saloon, slams his fist on the bar, and shouts, \u201cAlright, I\u2019m gonna have one more drink. And if my horse ain\u2019t back where I left it by the time I\u2019m done, I\u2019m gonna do what I did back in Texas! And I don\u2019t wanna have to do that!\u201d<\/p>\n

The saloon goes silent. The bartender gulps. The cowboys at the poker table exchange nervous glances.<\/p>\n

The cowboy slowly finishes his drink, then walks outside. Sure enough, his horse is tied up right where he left it.<\/p>\n

As he saddles up, the bartender nervously steps out and asks, \u201cUh, sir\u2026 what exactly did you do back in Texas?\u201d<\/p>\n

The cowboy tips his hat and says, \u201cI walked home.\u201d \ud83e\udd20\ud83d\ude02<\/p>\n

A Texas Cowboy Walks Into a Bar<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A cowboy who has just moved from Texas to Montana walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Bud.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

He sits at the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one.<\/p>\n

When he finishes them, he returns to the bar and orders three more.<\/p>\n

The bartender walks up and says to the cowboy, \u201cYou know, a mug goes flat after I draw it.<\/p>\n

It would taste better if you bought them one at a time. \u201d<\/p>\n

The cowboy replies, \u201cYou see, I have two brothers.<\/p>\n

One is in Arizona and the other is in Colorado.<\/p>\n

When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we\u2019d drink this way to remember the days when we drank together.<\/p>\n

So I\u2019m drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there.<\/p>\n

The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar and always drinks the same way.<\/p>\n

He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.<\/p>\n

One day, he comes in and orders only two mugs.<\/p>\n

All the regulars take notice and fall silent.<\/p>\n

When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, \u201cI don\u2019t want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss.\u201d<\/p>\n

The cowboy looks quite confused for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, no, everybody\u2019s just fine,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt hasn\u2019t affected my brothers though.\u201d<\/p>\n

LOL!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
