: Two Irish gentlemen, Pol and Padraig (just for a change), were on holiday in Italy. Being good Catholic boys, they visited the Vatican City and were lucky to hear the Pope speak to the assembled masses in St Peter's square. Later that night they got talking to the barman in the hotel bar. They were surprised to learn that the Pope would often pop into that very bar for an after hyours drink when it was less likely that he would be spotted.
"To be sure," said Pol to the barman, "so you're saying that you have served the Holy Father himself?"
"Certainly, signor," said Beppe, the barman, "he was in here only last Thursday. I served him myself."
"You served the Holy Father?" asked Padraig. "So you'd know what his favourite tipple is?"
"Yes, signor. Il Pappa drinks only creme de menthe."
"Well, in that case, Beppe, my friend and I will partake of the Pope's holy tipple," said Pol. "Two pints of creme de menthe..."
They spent the rest of the evening in the bar drinking pints of creme de menthe...
When they woke up on the men's room floor the next morning, they found that someone had been sick all over them. Green sick... Padraig sat up and groaned. His head felt as if it were about to explode.
"Jesus," said Pol, similarly afflicted. "If that's what the Holy Father likes to drink, no wonder they carry him everywhere in that chair."
