Bridge & Humor: Alligators

Once there was a millionaire, who collected live alligators. He kept them in the pool in back of his mansion.

One day he was playing bridge with his friends, and he announced:

“My dear guests, as today I won a lot of money in the game…I have a proposition to every man here. I will give one million dollars to the man who can swim across this pool full of alligators and emerge unharmed!”

As soon as he finished his last word, there was the sound of a large SPLASH!!

There was one guy in the pool swimming with all of his might as the crowd cheered him on.

Finally, he made it to the other side unharmed.

The millionaire was impressed. He said, “My boy that was incredible! Fantastic! I didn’t think it could be done! Well I must keep my end of the bargain…

The guy says, “Listen, I don’t want your money! I only want to find my partner,  who was who pushed me in that WATER!!!
