A man working in the produce section of a grocery store is approached by a little old lady.
The little old lady asks him, " Young man, I want to buy some lettuce but, I don't need the whole thing. Can you just sell me half?"
The man replies, "I'm sorry ma'am, we can't sell half a head of lettuce. You have to buy the whole thing. Just throw out what you don't use".
Elderly woman: "Oh, dear that would be wasteful. Can't you just sell me half?" After pestering him a few minutes, the man gives and says,: "o.k. lady, I'll see what I can do".
He wanders over to the butcher shop and loudly exclaims:
"Hey, Vince ! Can you cut this for me? Some crazy lady only wants half a head of lettuce". Suddenly, he realizes that the old lady had followed him. He then says," And this dear, sweet lady would like the other half".
The boss had taken notice of the whole incident and calls the man into the office.
Boss: "I saw what went on. That was some quick thinking. Where you from boy?
Man: " Lancaster, Pennsylvania, home of ugly women and hockey players."
Boss: "Hey, my wife is from Lancaster!"
Man: " Really? What team does she play for?"
