A Rabbi, A Hindu and a Lawyer are on a walking trip through the countryside. After several hours on the road they become tired. The trio comes upon a farm.
They go up to the door and ask the farmer for some lodging for the evening.
The farmer tells them that the barn has quarters for two of them only the third man must sleep with the cows and pigs.
The trio draws straws to see who gets sleep in the small room. The Hindu and the Lawyer win. The Rabbi closes the door behind and walks away towards the animals. After an hour the Rabbi returns and knocks on the door. “I can’t sleep out there, my religion does not permit staying with pigs, they are dirty animals.”
The Hindu says, “I’ll go and stay out.” After an has passed the Hindu walks back and knocks on the door. “Gentlemen, I can’t stay out there, we hold cows to be sacred and therefore I must not sleep near them”
The Lawyer says, “Ok I’ll stay out”
He closes the doors and walks away. Another hour passes and the Hindu and Rabbi hear a knock on the door. When they open it they find the cow and pig standing there.
