“A prisoner 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 prisoner version is:
   
“A prisoner walks into a bar.”
   
The joke is that the prisoner is probably walking into a bar of a prison cell. “@TheEllenShow Prisoner walks into a bar” was posted on Twitter by Tradoch on April 9, 2012. “A prisoner walks into a bar” was posted on Twitter by Blythe on March 28, 2013. “A prisoner walks into a bar. #saddest #joke #ever” was posted on Twitter by Nein on January 29, 2014.
