A related - and supposedly true - story that I think is hysterical:
Vic Power was a major league baseball player in the 1950s and early 1960s. Though Power was Puerto Rican, he was very dark-skinned and regarded as a black ballplayer through his career.
During his time in the minor leagues in the Jim Crow south, he and some teammates went into a restaurant to eat. The waitress looked at him and said, "Sorry. We don't serve #$%^$$### here."
Power looked at the waitress and replied, "That's not a problem. We don't plan to order any."
