A wagon train was heading west using the southern route to the gold fields of California.  They had hired an experienced guide named Al and were making good time.  The going was rough but they hadn’t run out of water or food yet and the people hopes were high.

Then just past Santa Fe their luck ran out.  They were attacked by a large band of Apaches and before they could get the wagons circled to begin defending themselves Al was shot through by an arrow.  He was mortally wounded but still directed the pioneers in mounting a defense and before they lost too many horses or people the Apache were driven off.

Al was laid on a pallet in the middle of the circle and the grateful leader of the people he had saved  said “Al, it looks like you’re a goner.  Is there anything that we can do for you to show how grateful we are?”

Al answered weakly with his dying breaths “yes, I always wanted to have a town named after me.  Can you give the town that grows in this place my name?

And the people said “of course we will Mr Burquerque.”

And that my friends is how Al..burquerque got it name.

I stayed up all night to see where the sun went. Then it dawned on me.

Many years ago there was a pitcher for the Milwaukee Braves (in those days the Braves were in Milwaukee) named Milt Famey.  And it seems he liked to have a few Schlitz beers between innings during games just to quench his thirst.

On one particular hot and humid day, Milt was downing more than normal and it began to affect his performance.  He began to start walking batter after batter, until finally, the manager had to yank him from the game.  He was drunk and they lost the game.

In the post game interview when the manager was asked why they lost, He held up a can of beer and said “Schlitz, the beer that made Milt Famey walk em.”

Bonus Pun:

Jokes about German sausage are the wurst.

Mahatma Gandhi was a very thin man because of his diet, and as a result of his poor nutrition he had bad breath. As a holy man he also walked barefoot everywhere he went.

He was a super-calloused fragile mystic plagued by halitosis.
