An American walks into a British pub and clears his voice to quieten the crowd of drinkers.
He says, "I hear you Brits are a bunch of hard drinkers. I'll give £500 to anybody in here who can drink 10 pints of Stella back to back."
The pub is quiet and no one takes up the Texan's offer.
One man called waneyboy even leaves. 30 minutes later, wayneyboy returns and taps the texan on the shoulder. "Is your bet still good?" he asked.
The texan says yes and asks the bartender to line up ten pints of Stella. Immediately wayneyboy tears into all ten pints, drinking them back to back.
Amazed, the texan hands over the £500 and says "If you don't mind me askin, why did you disappear for half an hour? Where did you go?"
wayneyboy replies, "Oh...I had to go to the pub down the road to see if I could do it first."
