Southern Ingenuity

Three Southerners and Three Yankees are traveling by
train to the
Super Bowl.
At the station, the three Northerners each buy a
ticket and watch as
the three Southerners buy just one ticket.
"How are the three of you going to travel on only one
ticket?" asks
one of the Yankees.
"Watch and learn," answers one of the men from the
South. They all
board the train. The three Yankee men take their
respective seats but
all three Southerners cram into a toilet together and
close the door.
Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor
comes around
collecting tickets. He knocks on the toilet door and
says, "Ticket,
please." The door opens just a crack and a single arm
emerges with a
ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.
The Yankees see this happen and agree it was quite a
clever idea, so
after the game they decide to do the same thing on the
return trip and
save some money. When they get to the station they buy
a single ticket
for the return trip, but see, to their astonishment,
that the three
Southerners don't buy any ticket at all.
"How are you going to travel without a ticket?" says
one perplexed
Yankee.
"Watch and learn," answers the men from the South.
When they board the train the three Northerners cram
themselves into a
toilet and the three Southerners cram into another
toilet just down
the way.
Shortly after the train is on its way, one of the
Southerners leaves
their toilet and walks over to the toilet in which the
Yankees are
hiding.
The Southerner knocks on their door and says, "Ticket,
please."
(And I'm still trying to figure out how the South lost
that war!)
