A nice old black guy

A nice old black guy was sitting at a diner where a waitress's kid was off to the side trying to putt a golf ball into a sideways cup on the floor.

After awhile the kid became frustrated and went to a white customer to ask for help. "Stand with your feet a little more apart," said the white customer. The kid tried and was putting better, but not good enough.

Next the kid went to a Mexican customer and asked him how he could putt better. "Hit the ball with the center of the putter," said the Mexican. The kid tried and was putting better, but not good enough.

Finally the kid asked an Asian customer how to golf better. "Keep your arms straight when you put," said the Asian. The kid tried and was doing better, but still not good enough.

Exasperated the kid tossed his putter aside and sank to the floor.

The nice old black guy had been watching and called out to the kid, "Pst, hey kid, get over here!" The kid walked over to him and the black guy said, "Did you know I was a pro-golfer for twenty years? I could give you the best advice out of everyone! Why did you ask the white guy, Mexican, and Asian, and completely ignore me?!"

The kid looked at him in shock and replied, "Gee Mister, I didn't think you would've helped! My mom always says if there's one thing she's learned being a waitress it's that black people never give tips!"
