Old Jews Telling Jokes: "I Must" (VIDEO)

First Posted: 03/18/10 06:12 AM ET Updated: 05/25/11 04:05 PM ET

We love "Old Jews Telling Jokes." The series, started earlier this year, takes us back to the Borscht Belt--showing elderly folks (who are luckily not your grandparents) telling jokes you'd expect to hear in the Castskills circa 1955. Here, Barnett Hoffman tells "I Must," with a zinger that'll have you spitting out your matzoh balls.

Thanks, we love it. The Catskills, Yiddish and this genra are fading away.

Well, nobody here should quit their day job, but this is a tough room!
I enjoyed it.

These old men can't tell jokes and distort the memories of the real great Jewish comedians of the Catskills. I remember several times laughing so hard that I was afraid I would rupture my stomach, and I was a teenager then. These old farrts should refrain from telling jokes, it is lame.

haha,

Kinda makes me miss my ex father-in-law. He was in World War II and your typical old Jewish man. Lovable and sweet. He'd always say, "Is that your face or did your pants fall down?"
