An Irish Wedding Blessing

An old Irish wedding tradition can sometimes get dangerous. At the reception, the Father of the bride gathers the attention to give his blessing to the bride and groom and all in attendance.
The blessing goes something like this…

Would all the married men,
Please now go and stand next to the one person who has made your life worth living.
At this time, the bartender almost gets crushed to death.

Paddy Walks Into A Pub

Irish Pub

A little Irish humor:
Paddy walks into the local pub with a gun and yells out, “Now who be havin sex with me wife?” The pub gets quiet and all heads turn toward Paddy holding the six shooter. In the background of the very crowded pub a voice is heard saying, “You not be havin enough bullets in that gun Paddy!”

Dark In Here It Is

Kate from Dublin takes a lover home during the day while her husband is away hard at work. Her 9 year old son comes home unexpectedly, sees them and hides in the bedroom closet to watch. A few minutes later the woman’s husband also comes home. Kate quickly puts her lover in the closet, not realizing that the little boy is in there already.

The little boy says, dark in here. The man says, yes it is.
Boy: I have a baseball.
Man: That’s nice.
Boy: Want to buy it?
Man: No thank you.
Boy: My dads outside!
Man: OK, how much?
Boy: $250

In the next few weeks the same thing happens again and the boy and the lover wind up in the closet again.

Boy: Dark in here.
Man: Yes it is.
Boy: I have a baseball glove.
The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy, how much?
Boy: $750
Man: Sold!

A few days later the father says to the boy, grab your glove and ball, lets go outside and have a game of catch. The boy says I cannnot. I sold my baseball and glove. For how much the dad asked.
Boy: $1000 for both.
Dad: That is way to much to charge your friends. For that, I’m taking you to church so father Flanagan can hear your confession.

Both go to church and the dad escorts the boy to the confessional booth, opens the door, tells the boy to walk in, kneel down and wait for the priest. The dad closes the door and sits in the pew a few feet away.

In a few seconds, father Flanagan slides the small window open and waits for the boy to begin his confession.

Boy: Dark in here…..
Father Flanagan: Don’t you be starting any shenanigans in here. You are in my closet now.
