"Cricket match at the World Cup, while in South Africa.
At the station, the 3 Trinis buy a ticket each and watch as the three Guyanes buy just one ticket for them all. "How allyuh goin on only one ticket?" asks one of the Trinis. "Watch an' see nah," answers one of the Guyanese. They all board the train. The Trinis take their respective seats but all three Guyanese cram into a toilet and close the door behind them. Shortly after the train departs, the conductor comes around collecting tickets. He knocks on the toilet door and says," Ticket please." The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on. The Trinis see this and agree it was quite a clever idea. So after the game, they decide to copy the Guyanese style on the return trip and save some money. When they get to the station, they buy one ticket for the return trip. To their astonishment, the Guyanese don't buy a ticket at all!!! "Whey boy! Whah happen tuh all allyuh? How allyuh travelling without a ticket?" says one perplexed Trini. "We know how fuh wuk de ting, y'all doan bodder wid we" answers a Guyanese. When they board the train the three Trinis cram into one toilet and soon after the three Guyanese cram into another nearby toilet. The train departs. Shortly afterwards, one of the Guyanese leaves the toilet and walks over to the toilet where the Trinis are hiding. He knocks on the door and says, "Ticket please." The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The Guyanese calmly collects the ticket and goes back into his toilet.
