Cajun Jokes
Who doesn't love a joke, right? I promise you that Cajuns do. Cajun jokes are the funniest ones that I have ever heard. Yes, some of them can be a bit edgy, but that's at least part of what makes them fun. One factor that almost all Cajun jokes have in common is that one of the characters (usually the one that is wild, or perhaps not as bright) is names Boudreaux or Thibodeaux. If you ever hear a joke being told that deals with a Boudreaux or Thibodeaux, odds are that you are hearing one of the good Cajun jokes.
Here are some of our favorite Cajun jokes. If you have one that we should add to the list, would you email it to us please? We would really appreciate it, and we will give you credit for submitting it to us, if you wish. Enjoy!
- Thibodeaux was fishing one day when he had a heart attack and died. The next day Thibodeaux's wife, Ada, placed the obituary in the Crowley, Louisiana newpaper that read, "Thibodeaux done died!" The newspaper called Ada and explained that she could add some details since the obituary could be 10 lines long. She corrected the ad and the next day it ran stating, "Thibodeaux done died! Boat for sale!"
- Tee-Boy was playing with some sticks behind his house when he noticed that the outhouse was leaning over towards the bayou. Being the curious little boy that he was, Tee-Boy got the idea to kick the outhouse really hard. He reared back, gave it the biggest kick that he could, and suddenly that outhouse tipped all the way over and fell into the bayou. Within seconds, the outhouse sank to the bottom of the bayou, and Tee-Boy ran to hide in case if anyone was watching. Later than day, Tee-Boy's papa approached him and asked if Tee-Boy knew anything about the outhouse. Tee-Boy looked at him and replied, "Papa, just like George Washington, I can not tell a lie. I kicked that outhouse as hard as I could, and the thing sunk straight to the bottom of the bayou." Tee-Boy's papa gave him a stern look and said, "You are going to get it boy! Go and fetch me a good stick out the tree!" Shocked, Tee-Boy asked, "But Papa, George Washington didn't get into trouble when he told the truth, so why are you going to whip me?" His papa explained, "When George Washington chopped down that cherry tree, his papa wasn't in that tree either!"
- Boudreaux was lying on his death bed. The doctor had already told him that he surely wouldn't live for another week. Suddenly, and much to Boudreaux's glee, a wonderful aroma hit Boudreaux like a tidal wave. He knew that the smell meant only one thing- his wife had just made a pot of gumbo. Boudreaux wanted a bowl so badly, but he was no longer able to walk, so he crawled out of his bed and into the kitchen. Just as Boudreaux was reaching for the pot, his wife barked out, "Boudreaux! Shame on you! You know that gumbo is going to be for the funeral."
- Thibodeaux was driving down the road one day when he saw a beautiful woman standing in the middle of it. Thibodeaux hit the brakes and aksed the woman, "What's wrong Miss?" The lady explained, "My life is over. Nobody cares about me. I want it all to end, so I'm just praying that someone will run over me on this road." Thibodeaux begged her, "No Miss. Please don't do that. You are beautiful, obviously smart, and you have a full life ahead of you. I'll tell you what. Jump in my truck and I will sneak you onto the boat I am working on. We are heading to France, so you can hide during the journey and we will slip off together in Europe and live a wonderful life." The lady agreed, and Thibodeaux snuck her onto the boat as promised. For over three weeks, he fed her three meals a day, brought her water, and romanced her in the life boat after the crew went to bed. Eventually, the captain of the ship caught the lady and asked her, "Miss, why are you hiding down in that cabin?" The lady explained, "I'm so sorry. One of your crew, Thibodeaux, has been hiding me here, feeding me, and romancing me at night on this whole journey to France." The captian giggled and told her, "No, no. We're not on our way to France. This is just the Chalmette ferry!"
- Boudreaux was driving down the levee one evening when he saw a cop pulling up on him with this lights on. Boudreaux pulled over, stepped out of his truck, and asked the cop what was wrong. The cope explained, "Boudreaux, you were doing 75 down this levee, and you know the speed limit is just 40!" Boudreaux told the cop that he was wrong, and asked his wife, Marie, to tell the cop that he wasn't speeding. Marie told the cop, "Sir. I can not tell you if my husband was speeding or not. I have learned to never talk about him when he's been drinking like this."
