A golfer is having a terrible time. First he slices the ball into some bushes, then into a sandtrap, then into the stream, then into a mud puddle, then across the highway. Eventually, he hits it deep into the woods and can't find it.
"Don't you think you should just leave it?" his caddy inquires.
"No," the golfer says. "This is my lucky golf ball!"

Did you hear about the track runner who ran a 100-mile race? He was in the lead, and had only one more mile to go, but he got too tired to finish, so he turned around and ran back.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That guy's such a terrible athlete...
(How terrible is he?)
...If he ran a bath, he'd come in last.
...If he played a piano, the piano would win.
...If he beat an egg, we'd all be surprised.

Zoe, Louise, and Vicky go to the Summer Olympics, but soon discover that all the events are sold out.
"I have an idea," says Zoe. "We could pose as athletes; that way, they'd have to let us in."
The others agree that it's a good idea, and Zoe decides to go first. She hurries across the street to the city dump, where she finds a pie plate. She goes up to the security guard and says, "Henderson, discus throwing." and the guard lets her by.
Next, Louise goes to the dump and finds a length of metal tubing. "Allen, pole vaulting." she says, and the guard waves her by.
Determined to follow her friends, Vicky valiantly searches the dump, until she finds an old, rolled-up wire fence. She walks up to the guard and says, in a very confident voice, "Parker, fencing."

Myles is walking along the pier, carrying two lobsters in a bucket. A game warden walks up to him and says, "Do you have a fishing license?"
Myles says, "I didn't catch these lobsters, they're my pets. Every morning, I stand by the pier and whistle; they hop out of the water, I take them for a walk, and I toss them back in at the end of the day."
"Hm, interesting." says the warden. "Would you mind showing me, please?"
"Absolutely." Myles says, and with that, he tosses the lobsters into the water.
"Okay," the warden says. "Now, show me how you whistle for the lobsters to come back out again."
Myles says, "What lobsters?"

A horse walks up to the racetrack betting booth, and plunks his money down. "I want to bet $100 on myself to win the ninth race." he says.
"That's incredible!" the astonished clerk says.

"No," the clerk replies. "That you actually think you have a chance of winning the race."

A man rents a deep-sea fishing boat and goes out for a day of fishing; he's hoping to catch a bunch of fish and bring them home for dinner as a surprise for his wife. Hours pass, and he doesn't catch a thing, so he gives up and heads back home. On the way home he passes a fish market. He turns to the fish seller and says, "Say, would you mind throwing two sea bass, three salmon, three catfish, two albacore tuna, and one red snapper to me, please?"
"Well, certainly sir, but why do you want me to throw them to you?" the fish seller asks.
"Because when I get home, I want to be able to tell my wife I caught these fish!"
