“A number 12 walks into a bar…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…”  is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A number version is:
 
“A number 12 walks into a bar and asks for a beer. ‘Sorry I can’t serve you,’ states the barman. ‘Why not?!’ asks the 12. ‘You’re under 18.’”
 
The joke has been cited in print since at least 2002.

TGIF! It’s been a rough week, so I’m in need of some additional material. I’m hopeful that this will spark some of you to help add to my collection.  A sandwich came into a bar one night. The bartender stepped up and saw plainly that the new customer was a sandwich and shouted, “Hey get outta here we don’t serve food in here!” A number twelve walks into a bar and asks the bartender for a pint of beer.  “Sorry, I can’t serve you,” states the bartender.  “Why not?!” asks the number twelve with anger showing in its voice.  “You’re under 21, ” replies the bartender. Enjoy!
