Veteran Tour Guide Delivers Weirdly Sexual Joke In The Middle Of The Day To Complete Silence

Attendees of a walking tour in Amsterdam were left standing in silence after an aging tour guide performed a complete stinker of a joke. 

The 2pm group had already enjoyed an hour of historical knowledge and engaging stories when 45-year-old Irish tour guide, Ted, decided to push the appropriateness of the humour. 

As the group walked past the red light district, Ted asked the group how much on average 20 minutes with a prostitute would cost? After various guesses, Ted shared it would be 50 euro “but if you get in early with Crystal and mention my name you can get it down to 30!” 

The joke was received with crickets and a wet cough. Even after Ted said “I’m joking” the crowd still stood in silence, unsure how to react. 

One attendee, father of two, Simon Gillies remembered the moment very awkwardly. 

“It’s like he forgot it was the middle of the day and I wasn’t there with my 2 teenage daughters” Simon shared. 

"We were all painfully sober too"

“And.. the way he delivered it felt like he did it every tour, I have a feeling it never does too well.” 

Another attendee, Cassie Bryan, thought it was hilarious - but chose not to laugh because there were literal children around.

“I was laughing so much on the inside, I felt like I was in a TV show.” 

“Also why was he Irish?” 

Ted, continued the tour as if he didn’t completely bomb, and didn’t hold back on more sexual jokes with the group. 

“Even outside the red light district, he was referring to the slant houses as 'gay houses' because they 'weren't straight'" said Deidre, a 72-year-old American retiree.

"I don’t know if that's a common joke around here or not, but again, it did not land” Cassie explained. 

“Part of me thinks he should start the tour at one of the coffee houses"
