The man says, “Actually, I’m German, but how did you know my name is Walter?”

During the Olympics in Rio last year, a journalist was walking through the Olympic Village, and passed a guy carrying a long pole over his shoulder.

"Hi! Are you a pole vaulter?"

"No, I'm German, but how do you know my name?"

He was carrying a massive stick so I said to him "Are you a pole vaulter?" to which he replied "No, I'm a German. How did you know my name was Walter?"

Joke shamelessly stolen from u/tunafriendlydolphin ♡

Another guy comes up to him and ask, “Hey, are you a pole vaulter?”

The guy with the stick replies, “No, I’m Ukrainian… but how did you know my name is Walter!?”

He replies, "No, I'm German. How did you know my name?"

I asked, are you a pole vaulter?

To which he replied ‘No. I am German. But how do you know my name?’

I asked him "Are you by any chance a pole- vaulter?"

He looked surprised "Nein, I'm German, but how did you know my name vas Valter?"

There are two Olympians speaking to one another:

Olympian 1: Are you a pole vaulter?

Olympian 2:No, I am German but how did you know my name was Vaulter?

A guy across the street yells to him "Hey mate, are you a pole vaulter?"

So the first guy shouts back "No, actually I am originally from Austria but how did you know my name is Walter?"

(You've got to lay the accent on quite thickly for the last part)

They're all Pole vaulters.

He asked the man "Excuse me, but are you a pole vaulter?"

The man replied "Actually I am Ukrainian, but how did you know my name vas Valter?"

“No,” says the man, “I’m German. But how did you know my name is Walter?”

Yes I am, but how did you know my name was Valter?

At the Olympics, I saw a man carrying a long stick. “Are you a pole vaulter?” I asked.‬

‪“No,” he replied. “I’m German, but how did you know my name is Walter?”‬
