22. A classic banjo joke:

Sun Jul 6, 2014, 06:16 PM

Jul 2014

A banjo player parks his car in a questionable neighborhood, leaving his banjo visible in the back seat. He locks the car and goes around the corner to the convenience store to buy a six pack, confident he won't be gone long enough for anything bad to happen to his vehicle.

A few minutes later, he returns to his car, he sees shattered glass on the sidewalk. "Dammit!", he cries s he reaches the car! Someone had broken the window and put in five more banjos!

Heard this one from a banjo player. I've also heard it with accordions in place of the banjos.
