2 Four retired Army veterans are walking down the street window shopping. Then they turn a corner and see a sign that says Veterans Bar over the doorway of an entry into an establishment that doesnt look all that well kept up. They look at each other then go in. On the inside, they realize in this case, they could judge the book by its cover . The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, Come on in and let me pour one for you! Whatll it be, gentlemen? There seems to be a fully stocked bar so the men all ask for a martini. In short time the bartender serves up 4 iced martinis - shaken not stirred and says, Thatll be 40 cents, please. The four men stare at the bartender for a moment then look at each other - they cant believe their good luck. They pay the 40 cents, finish their martinis and ordered another round. Again, four excellent martinis are produced with ! the bartender again saying, Thats 40 more cents, please. They pay the 40 cents but their curiosity is more than they can stand. Theyve each had two martinis and so far theyve spent less than a dollar. Finally one of the men says, How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime a piece? The bartender replies, No doubt youve noticed the decor in here. And the outside aint nothin to write home about. I dont waste money on that stuff. But, heres my story. Im a retired Master Sergeant and I always wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the lottery for $45 million and decided to open this place for real veterans. Every drink costs a dime, wine, liquor, beer, all the same. Wow. Thats quite a story. says one of the men. The four of them sipped at their martinis and couldnt help but notice three other guys at the end of the! bar who didnt have a drink in front of them and hadnt ordered anything the whole time they were there. One man finished his martini and, gestured at the three at the end of the bar without drinks and asks the bartender, Whats with them? The bartender says, Oh, those are retired Marines. Theyre waiting for happy hour.
