“Two vampires walk into a bar…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A vampire version is:
 
“Two vampires walk into a bar. ‘I’ll have a pint of blood,’ says one. ‘I’ll have a pint of plasma,’ says the other. ‘Okay,’ says the bartender. ‘One blood and one blood lite!’”
 
The joke has been cited in print since at least 1990. One version has two vampires and another version has three vampires (who order “two bloods and a blood lite”),
 
“Three vampires walk into a bar…” is another bar joke version.

22 October 1993, Milwaukee (WI) Sentinel, “Bach isn’t popular in Texas music store” by Alex Thien, pg. 3C:
Audrey Cummings says it works for her every Halloween, this story about three vampires going into a bar.
 
“What’ll you have?” the bartender asks.
 
First vampire: “I’ll have a pint of blood.”
 
Second vampire: “I’ll have a pint of blood.”
 
Third vampire: “I’ll have a pint of plasma.”
 
The bartender scratches his head.
 
“OK, let me see if I have this right,” the bartender says. “That’s two bloods and a blood lite, right?”

they sit down at a table, and the wait person comes over.
“what’ll it be, gentlemen”
 
the first vampire says “I’ll have a glass of packed red blood cells”
 
the second says “that sounds good, I"ll have the same!”
 
the third says “I’ll just have a glass of plasma”.
 
so the wait person yells to the barkeep:
 
“Two bloods and a blood lite!”
