A Scotsman, an Englishman and an Irishman want to get in to the Olympics, but they haven't got tickets.so they hatch a scheme to pose as athletes.
The Scotsman picks up a manhole cover, tucks it under his arm and walks to the gate. "McTavish, Scotland" he says, "Discus" and in he walks.
The Englishman finds a long pole and slings it over his shoulder... "Waddington-Smythe, England" he says, "Pole vault" and in he walks.
The Irishman looks around and finally sees a roll of barbed wire. He picks it up and tucks it under his arm. "O'Malley, Ireland" he says, "Fencing". .
