The Saint Kilda Fan

(Australian Rules Football)

A guy walks into a Melbourne pub with a parrot under his arm. The parrot is wearing a "Saint Kilda jumper and scarf" and is festooned with "Saints" pom-poms.

The bartender says, "Hey! No pets are allowed in here! You'll have to leave!"

The guy begs him, "Look, I'm desperate. We're both big fans, the TV is broken, and this is the only place around where we can see the game!"

After securing a promise that the parrot will behave, and warning him that he and the parrot will be thrown out if there's any trouble, the bartender relents and allows them to stay in the bar and watch the game.

The big game begins with the Saints receiving a free kick, advancing to the forward line and kicking a goal.

With that the parrot jumps up on the bar, and begins walking up and down the bar giving high-fives to everyone and screeching "Go you mighty Saints!!!".

The bartender says, "Wow, that is the most amazing thing I've ever seen! What does the parrot do if they win a Grand Final?"

The owner replies, "I don't know, I've only had him for Forty Five years."
