יומא-יא

Israel had high hopes of winning a medal when it competed in the slalom race at the last Olympics. In a trial run, Uri, the Israeli entrant, was the fastest skier passing through the 20 gates. Conditions were perfect on the day of the finals. The crowd waited with great excitement. The Swiss skier was clocked at 56 seconds. The Frenchman sped down in 55.8 seconds and the American came in at 55.5 seconds. Then came Uri’s turn. The crowd waited and waited. Finally, after a minute and 49 seconds, he crossed the finish line. “What happened,” his disappointed coach asked. Uri responded: “Which one of those גויים put a mezuzah on each gate?”
