Dead giveaway
Shloyme Silberstein gets rich and wants to show off. So he orders his driver to drive him to a new exclusive golf club with his new Cadillac. But a sign at the door unmistakably states that Jews are not permitted access.
Shloyme says,“Wait here for me.”
His driver responds, “But don’t you see the sign? They will kick you out immediately!”
Shloyme says, “But I don’t have to tell them I am Jewish.” And he leaves for the gate.
So the driver waits … one hour … two hours … three hours … Finally, after three and a half hours, Shloyme is kicked out by two burly guardsmen.
The driver asks, “What happened?”
Shloyme says, “Everything was fine until we played the eighth hole! Accidentally I shot my ball into one of these ponds. I shouted: ‘Oh my God, what should I do now?’ And then the waters parted and everybody knew!”
