After weeks of trawling through thousands of hilarious, quirky, not so funny and often inappropriate jokes, Hughesy will announce the winner of Nova 100’s $25,000 Joke tomorrow morning, Friday 10 June at 8am. But will listeners agree with his choice?Which would you choose: Wife Got Hit By A Bus, How Do You Make A Tissue Dance, Ugly Baby On A Bus, Proof That Dog is Man’s Best Friend or tomorrow’s final joke?
Every day this week Hughesy has selected a favourite funny, with the last jokester to be advised at 7am tomorrow, and the winning joke announced an hour later. The four finalists are:
1. Wife Got Hit By A Bus
The police came to my front door last night. They were holding a picture of my wife. They said, is this your wife sir? Shocked I said yes. They said I am afraid it looks like she’s been hit by a bus. I said, I know but she’s got a lovely personality.
2. How Do You Make A Tissue Dance? Put a little boogey in it.
3. Ugly Baby On A Bus
A lady gets onto a bus holding a baby. As she buys a ticket, the bus driver tells her it’s the ugliest baby he’s ever seen. Horrified she grabs her ticket and heads to the back of the bus. She turns to the guy next to her and tells him the bus driver is the rudest man she has ever come across. He advises her to tell the driver what she thinks as she shouldn’t put up with his insult. He offers to hold her monkey while she does. (joke paraphrased for length)
4. Proof That Dog is Man’s Best Friend
I locked my wife and dog in the boot the other day and guess who was the only one happy to see me?
With over 13,000 jokes registered via the Joke Hotline or mobile & static Joke Booths over a five week period, Nova 100 received a diverse range of jokes including numerous inappropriate blonde, Mexican and animal jokes and many versions of a man walked in a bar and pirate jokes.
Hundreds of jokesters stuffed up their jokes or forgot the punch lines, many registered jokes that could never be aired as they were sexist, racist, too rude, in poor taste or just not funny and others were incoherent as callers were obviously “tired and emotional” particularly during the hours of midnight and 2am.
