An 80-Year-Old Man Went To The Doctor

An 80-year-old man went to the doctor, who was amazed at what good shape he was in.

The doctor asked, “Why do you think you have such good health?”

The old-timer said,

“I’m a turkey hunter and that’s why I’m in such good shape. I’m up before daylight and out chasing turkeys especially for Thanksgiving.”

The doctor said, “Well, I’m sure that helps, but there has got to be more to it. How old was your father when he died?”

The old-timer said, “Who said my dad’s dead?”

The doctor said, “You mean you’re 80 years old and your dad’s still alive? How old is he?”

The old-timer said, “He’s 100 years old and he hunted turkey with me this morning, and that’s why he’s still alive…he’s a turkey hunter.”

The doctor said, “Well, that’s great, but I’m sure there’s more to it. How about your dad’s dad? How old was he when he died?”

The old-timer said, “Who said my grandpa’s dead?”

The doctor said, “You mean you’re 80 years old and your grandfather’s still living! How old is he?”

The old-timer said, “He’s 118 years old.”

The doctor was getting frustrated at this point and said,

“I guess he went turkey hunting with you this morning too?”

The old-timer said,

“No, Grandpa couldn’t go this morning because he got married.”

The Doctor said in amazement,

“Got married!! Why would a 118-year-old guy want to get married?”

The old-timer said, “Who said he wanted to?”
