Doc Murphy
Paddy visited Doc Murphy and told him that he had been feeling ill. The doctor examined him, ran some tests, then he shook his head and said, “I’m sorry to tell you Paddy, but you have Green 24.”
“What’s that?” asked Paddy. “It means that your internal organs have started turning green and that you’ve got 24 hours to live.”
Paddy went home and told the wife the bad news. She thought for a minute and responded, “Well, will you come to bingo with me tonight? Otherwise, you’ll never be able.”
Begrudgingly, Paddy agrees, and they went to the church hall to play bingo. To his great surprise, Paddy won a line and a $10 prize and began to think this wasn’t such a bad day after all. Twenty minutes later, Paddy won the full house and $150.
He entered the lucky draw, which was worth $500, and won that as well. Father O’Malley called him up onto the stage and said, “I don’t believe it Paddy, you have won three competitions and a total of $660 in one night. You must be the luckiest man on earth!”
Paddy replied, “Well, no, I’m really not the luckiest man alive, I’ve got Green 24.” Father O’Malley looked down at the piece of paper he was holding and exclaimed, “Saints preserve us; Paddy has won the raffle too!”
