I found myself in a pub in Patiala and a group of American tourists came in.
One of the Americans said, in a loud voice, "I hear you Sikh think you're great drinkers. I bet $5,000 that no-one here can drink 3 bottles 🍾🍾🍾of Jack Daniels in 10 minutes"
The bar was silent, everybody looking askance but the American noticed one big Sardar leaving, and no-one took up the bet.
20 minutes later the Sardar who left returned and said "Hey Yank, is yer bet still on?"
"Sure" said the American, "3 JD in 10 minutes for a bet of $5,000 ."
"Grand, " replied the Sikh, "so pour the whisky and start the clock."
It was very close but the last drop was consumed with 12 seconds to spare.
"OK Yank, pay up." said the Sardar.
"I'm happy to pay, here's your money" said the American. "But tell me, when I first offered the wager I saw you slink away. Where did you go?'
"Well sir", replied the Sardar, " $5,000 is a lot of money to a man like me, so I first went to the pub across the road & tried 3 bottles of Jack Daniels to see if I could do it !!!
