Three Scots and three Irishmen were headed to a conference by train.
At the station, the Irishmen each buy a ticket, while the Scots only buy one.
“How are three of you going to ride on just one ticket?” asks an Irishman.
“Watch and learn,” replies a Scot.
On the train, the Scots all cram into a bathroom. When the conductor knocks, a hand slips out with one ticket. He takes it and moves on. The Irishmen are amazed.
On the way back, the Irishmen copy the trick and buy just one ticket. But this time, the Scots don’t buy any tickets at all.
“How will you ride without a ticket?” asks an Irishman.
“Watch and learn,” says the Scot.
Once on board, the Irishmen squeeze into a bathroom. The Scots go into another one nearby. Then one Scot slips out, walks over to the Irishmen’s door, knocks, and says:
“Ticket, please.”
