Mental Hospital Outing
The recreational director of a mental hospital wanted to take a well behaved group of inmates to a baseball game. The General Manager of the club was a little leery of this. When the Recreational Director said:
- If I prove to you how well behaved they are, will you let them in?
The General Director agreed.
The group of inmates came in and sat down. The Recreational Director shouted:
- Stand up, nuts!
Everyone stood up.
- Sit down, nuts!
Everyone sat down.
- Look behind you, nuts!
Everyone turned around.
Pleased with that, the General Manager let them in. About the third inning or so, he heard a tremendous commotion! People were running helter skelter. He asked what happened and was told that someone had called out:
- Peanuts!
