The Pink Gorilla Joke (and other LONG LONG JOKES)

[Jason Tandro]

This joke is a hand-me-down from my father. He originally heard this on a four hour bus ride from Baltimore to DC. The entire four hours. Since this joke can be as long or as short as you want, I am gonna give you the short version.


A man is driving down a country road. His car breaks down and he is forced to walk a mile to a nearby farmhouse. He knocks on the door and an old man opens it.
"What do you want?"
"My car broke down, can you give me a lift to town?"
"I don't have anything but my old tractor and she's outta gas."
"Is there anything you can do for me?"
"Well, I can let you stay here overnight, if you're not afraid of the Pink Gorilla."
"Pink Gorilla?"
"Well there's an old legend that in these hills there used to roam a gigantic Pink Gorilla."
"Oh please," says the man. "There's no such thing as a Pink Gorilla."
"Oh really? Well it just so happens that I caught it. I can show it to you if you want."
"Hah! This'll be good. Sure let's see the Pink Gorilla."
"I keep him up in the Mountain Cave. Let's go."

And so they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and suddenly the old man stops and says. "Wait a minute... I forgot my flashlight!"

And they head back to the farmhouse, and the man grabs the flashlight. And they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and suddenly the old man stops and says. "Wait a minute! I forgot the key to the cave!"

And they head back to the farmhouse, the old man grabs the keys, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they reach the cavern door. The old man puts in the key and the door opens with a CREAK! Then the old man turns on his flashlight with a CLICK!

And they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they walk, and they reach a metal grate. The old man goes, "Darn it! I forgot the key to THIS door!"

And so they go back to the cave door. Turn off the flashlight with a CLICK! Shut the cave door with a CREAK! And they head back to the farmhouse. The old man grabs the keys.

[Now this is where you get creative and extend the story as long as you want. What makes this joke is the old man constantly forgetting things and remembering and then reversing the order of all the sound effects on the way in and out respectively.]

Finally they get to the lair of the Pink Gorilla...

The old man opens a door, and inside the door is a Pink Gorilla!
"I keep him chained to the cave and feed him once a week," says the old man.
All of a sudden, the chain breaks. The man screams and the old man begins to run back through the door.

And they run, and they run, and they run [back through everything you put them through] and they run into the farmhouse, run upstairs hide under the bed. The Pink Gorilla rips the roof off the house, lifts up the bed and sees the two men hiding underneath. The Pink Gorilla places his gigantic fist on the man and says:

"Tag your it!"

Yes, this joke is the spawn of the devil. There are many more like it. The Tis Bottle and CLANG CLANG CLANG joke come to mind.

i heard this joke once which id have to say is.. interesting. due to explicit content (and just plain weird content) i wont write it, but the general idea is excruciatingly precise details that go on for a few minutes, and then a really shit punch line.

I know which one you're talking about. The one that has a dvd full of celebrities telling this joke in their own way?

Edit: Thanks imdb, The Aristocrats.
