Curious, he buys a ticket. The tent goes dark. Suddenly, trumpets blare and all eyes turn to the center ring. There, spot lit in the center ring is a table with three walnuts on it.
Standing next to it is a retired Portuguese Sailor. The Portuguese Sailor suddenly unzips his pants, whips out a huge organ, and smashes all three walnuts with three mighty swings! The crowd erupts in applause as the retired Portuguese Sailor is carried off on the shoulders of the envious crowd.
Ten years later the salesman visits the same little town and he sees the same faded banner. This time, instead of walnuts, three coconuts are on the table. The Portuguese Sailor stands before them, then suddenly unzips his fly and smashes the coconuts in the same manner, as before. The crowd goes wild!
Flabbergasted, the salesman requests a meeting with him after the show.
"You're incredible," he tells the Portuguese Sailor, "but I have to know something. You're older now. Why switch from walnuts to coconuts?"
"Well," says the Portuguese Sailor, "My eyes aren't what they used to be!"
