Three Americans and three Indians are travelling by train to a cricket match at the World Cup in England. At the station, the three Americans each buy a ticket and watch as the three Indians buy just one ticket between them.
"How are the three of you going to travel on only one ticket?" asks one of the Americans.
"Watch and learn," answers one of the Indians.
They all board the train. The Americans take their respective seats but all three Indians cram into a toilet and close the door behind them. Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes around collecting tickets. He knocks on the toilet door and says, "Ticket please."
The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in its hand. The conductor takes it and moves on. The Americans see this and agree it's quite a clever idea. So after the game, they decide to copy the Indians on the return trip and save some money (being clever with money, and all that). When they get to the station, they buy a single ticket for the return trip. To their astonishment, the Indians don't
buy a ticket at all!!
How are you going to travel without a ticket?" says one perplexed American.
"Watch and learn," answers an Indian. When they board the train the three Aussies cram into a toilet and soon after the three Indians cram into another nearby. The train departs.
Shortly afterwards, one of the Indians leaves the toilet and walks over to the
toilet where the Americans are hiding. He knocks on the door and says,
"Ticket please."
