Tiger Woods In Ireland
Taking a break from the golf circuit nearby, Tiger Woods drove his new Mercedes SUV into an Irish gas station.
An attendant greeted him in the typical Irish manner, unaware who this "Yank" golf celebrity was. "Top of the morning' to ya!" the Irishman smiled, doffing his cap.
As Tiger got out of the vehicle, two tees fell out of his pocket.
"So what are those, lad?" asked the attendant.
"They're called tees," replied Tiger.
"Aye, and what would ya be usin' 'em for, now?" inquired the Irishman.
"Well, they're for resting my balls on when I drive," said Tiger.
"AW! Jaysus, Mary an' Joseph," exclaimed the Irish attendant. "Those Mercedes fellas think of fookin' everything."
