A man walks into a bar and asks the bartender:

Man: “If I show you a really good trick, will you give me a free drink?”

The bartender thinks for a moment and agrees.

The man pulls a tiny rat from one pocket and a tiny piano from another. The rat stretches, cracks his knuckles, and starts playing the blues.

After finishing his drink, the man asks again:

Man: “If I show you an even better trick, will you give me free drinks for the rest of the night?”

The bartender agrees, convinced nothing could top the first trick.

The man repeats the act, then pulls out a small bullfrog. The frog begins singing along perfectly with the rat’s music.

While the man enjoys his drinks, a stranger approaches him.

Stranger: “I’ll give you $100,000 for that frog.”

Man: “Sorry, he’s not for sale.”

Stranger: “$250,000 cash.”

Man: “No.”

Stranger: “$500,000 cash.”

The man finally agrees and sells the frog.

Bartender: “Are you crazy? That frog could’ve been worth millions!”

Man: “Don’t worry. The frog wasn’t anything special. You see… the rat’s a ventriloquist.”
