"But I paid, doN'T you remember?" 
 says the customer.

"OK," says the bartender, "If you said
  you paid, you did."

The man then goes outside and tells
the 1st person he sees that the
bartender caN'T keep track of whether
his customers have paid.

The 2nd man then rushes in, orders
a beer and later pulls the same stunt.

The barkeeper replies, "If you say
you paid, I'll take your
word for it."

Soon the customer goes into the
street, sees an old friend, and
tells him how to get FREE
drinks.

The man hurries into the bar and begins
to drink high-balls when, suddenly, the
bartender leans over and says, "You
know, a funny thing happened
in here tonight. 2 men were
drinking beer, neither paid
and both claimed that they
did. The next guy who tries
that is going to get punched
right in the nose."

"DoN'T bother me with
your troubles," the final patron
responds.

"JUST GIVE ME MY
  CHANGE AND I'LL
  BE ON MY WAY."
