A man was getting ready to tee off on the first hole when a second golfer
approached and asked if he could join him. The first said that he usually played
alone, but agreed to the twosome.
They were even after the first few
holes. The second man said, "We're about evenly matched, how about playing for
five bucks a hole?" The first man said that he wasn't much for betting, but
agreed to the terms. The second man won the remaining sixteen holes with
ease.
As they were walking off, the second guy was busy counting his $80.00. He confessed that he was the pro at a neighbouring course and liked to play suckers. The first fellow revealed that he was the Parish Priest.
The pro was flustered and apologetic, offering to return the money. The Priest said, "You won fair and square and I was foolish to bet with you. You keep your winnings."
The pro said, "Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?"
The Priest said, "Well, you could come to Mass on Sunday and make a donation......and, if you want to bring your mother and father along, I'll marry them!
