An elderly farmer went into town to catch a movie. At the ticket booth, the attendant noticed something on his shoulder and asked, “Sir, what’s that on your shoulder?“
The farmer replied proudly, “That’s my pet rooster, Chuckie. He goes everywhere with me.“
“I’m sorry, Sir,” said the attendant, “We can’t allow animals in the theatre, not even a pet chicken.“
Undeterred, the farmer walked around the corner, discreetly tucked Chuckie into his pants, and returned to buy his ticket. He found a seat between two elderly ladies named Mildred and Marge.
As the movie started, Chuckie began to stir. The farmer unzipped his pants so the rooster could peek out and enjoy the film.
“Marge,” whispered Mildred.
“What is it?” asked Marge.
“I think the man next to me is behaving strangely,” Mildred whispered back.
“Why do you say that?” Marge inquired.
“He unzipped his pants,” Mildred replied, “and he seems to have something out.“
Marge chuckled softly, “Oh, at our age, we’ve seen it all.“
“Yes,” Mildred sighed, “but this one is eating my popcorn!“
