Wedding speeches can go one of two ways: they can fail miserably and send a crowd to sleep, or they can be the most memorable moment of the entire wedding. We’ve seen some incredible best man speeches over the years, but how about “best gran”? One grandma was keen to prove that OAPs can still crank up the humor – by telling a dirty joke that had her audience in tears of laughter!

Adding a bit of comedy to a speech is a great way to get people on your side. We’re sure this grandma is popular enough already, so she probably decided for the less-than-serious approach so she didn’t lose her crowd’s interest.

After taking to her podium, Grandma informed the audience that she was going to tell them “a little story”.

Now, the moment Grandma gets going, we know she’s a born story-teller. We can imagine her sitting on her favorite couch in the evenings, with her extended family sat on the floor around her, giggling away at her tales. She might have a slightly bigger crowd to please this time around, but in just seconds, she’s won everyone over.

Grandma started her story:

“You see, this lady was badly in need of a husband, so she thought ‘I’ll put an ad in the paper’…”

Of course, “this lady”, the bride, is the grandma’s granddaughter. We think she felt the need to include this little disclaimer with what was to come next!

Grandma proceeded with the tale:

“And she put the ad in the paper. And it said, ‘Wanted: A husband. He must not beat me. He must not chase after me when I go about with my friends, but he must be good in bed!”

People were already giggling by this point. Grandma continued:

“The next day she hears a ring and goes out. And she sees a man sitting in a wheelchair. And she looks at him and she thought there must have been an accident down the road. And she said “You’ve got no arms and no legs, what are you sitting here for?” And he said “You’re the lady who put the ad in the paper, and I’ve come to apply for the position!”

The cleverer members of the audience might see where Grandma’s story is going by now. She has the attention of the whole room as she continues:

“She said, ‘But you’ve got no arms!’ And he said, ‘Well, I can’t beat you, can I?’ She said, ‘But you’ve got no legs!’ And he said, ‘Well, I can’t chase after you when you go out, can I?’ And then the tears rolled down her cheeks and she said, ‘I wanted somebody that was good in bed!’ And with a smirk on his face and a big grin he said, ‘Rang the doorbell, didn’t I?'”

At this, the crowd erupts into laughter. Nobody would expect such a dirty joke from a grandma, which is what makes her “story” all the funnier. Grinning from ear to ear, Grandma steps down off the podium to applause from the whole room. She’s succeeded in making everyone laugh – her work is done.

We’d love to have such a cheeky, witty grandma in our life! You can check out this old lady’s hilarious approach to story-telling in the full video below.
