JOKE ABOUT RALEIGH COUPONS AND THE CRUCIFIXION
A CENTURION, JUST GETTING OFF OF WORK, NOTICED A LOT
OF COMMOTION UP ON MT. CALVARY, SO HE DECIDED TO SEE
WHAT WAS HAPPENING. WHEN HE GOT TO THE TOP OF THE
HILL, HE SAW CHRIST UP ON THE CROSS AND STOPPED TO
HAVE A CIGARETTE. HE REACHED INTO HIS POCKET TO FIND
HE WAS ALL OUT OF CIGARETTES, SO HE ASKED CHRIST FOR
ONE. CHRIST REACHED INTO HIS SIDE AND THREW A PACK OF
CIGARETTES DOWN. THE CENTURION SAID THANKS AND,
"HEY, YOU SMOKE RALEIGHS, TOO." CHRIST REPLIED: "SURE,
WHERE DO YOU THINK I GOT THIS SWELL CROSS."
