The Pope and Tiger Woods died on the same day and, because of an
administrative mix up, the Pope went to hell and Tiger Woods went to
heaven. The Pope explains the situation to the administrative clerk in hell, and
after checking the paperwork admits that there is an error.
"However", the clerk explains, "it would be 24 hours before it can be
rectified". Next day the Pope is called and Hell's staff bids him farewell.
On the way up, the Pope meets Tiger Woods coming down from heaven
and they stop to have a chat.
"Sorry about the mix up", apologies the Pope
"No problem" replied Tiger Woods
Pope: "I am really anxious to get to heaven"
Tiger: "Why is that?"
Pope: "All my life I have wanted to meet the Virgin Mary"
Tiger: "You're a day late"
