Tennis Ball

While out one morning in the park, Santa found a brand new tennis ball, and seeing no one around it might belong to, he slipped it into the pocket of his shorts.

Later, on his way home, he stopped at the pedestrian crossing, waiting for the lights to change.

Banta standing next to him eyed the large bulge in his shorts.
"Oye, what's that?" he asked with disgust.

"Tennis ball," came the breathless reply.

"Oh," said Banta sympathetically, "that must be painful.... I had tennis elbow once."
