Here’s a good Philadelphia joke I thought I would share with you guys, sent to me by Miranda from Team hater.
A guy from Philadelphia dies and is sent to Hell. He had been a horrible
man his entire life. The devil puts him to work breaking up rocks with a
sledgehammer. To make it worse he cranks up the temperature and the
humidity.
After a couple of days, the devil checks in on his victim to see if he is
suffering adequately. The devil is aghast as the Philadelphian is happily
swinging his hammer and whistling a happy tune. The devil walks up to him
and says, “I don’t understand this. I’ve turned the heat way up, it’s
humid and you’re crushing rocks; why are you so happy?” The Philadelphian,
with a big smile, looks at the devil and replies, “This is great! It
reminds me of August in Philadelphia. Hot, humid, a good place to work. It
reminds me of home. This is fantastic!”
The devil, extremely perplexed, walks away to ponder the Philadelphian’s
remark. Then he decides to drop the temperature, send down a driving rain
and torrential wind. Soon, Hell is a wet, muddy mess. Walking in mud up to
his knees with dust blowing into his eyes, the Philadelphian is happily
slogging through the mud pushing a wheelbarrow full of crushed rocks.
Again, the devil asks how he can be happy in such conditions. The
Philadelphian replies, “This is great! Just like April in Philadelphia. It
reminds me of working out in the yard with spring planting!”
The devil is now completely baffled but more determined to make the
Philadelphian suffer. He makes the temperature plummet. Suddenly Hell is
blanketed in snow and ice. Confident that this will surely make the
Philadelphian unhappy, the devil checks in on him.
He is again aghast at what he sees. The Philadelphian is dancing, singing,
and twirling his sledgehammer as he cavorts in glee. “How can you be so
happy? Don’t you know its 40 below zero!?” screams the devil.
Jumping up and down the Philadelphian throws a snowball at the devil and
yells, “Hell has frozen over!! This means the Eagles won the Super Bowl!”
