“A pair of dice walk into a bar…” (bar joke)

“A guy walks into a bar…” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” A dice version is:
 
“A pair of dice walk into a bar. The bartender asks, ‘What are you having, fellas?’ One die answers, ‘Doubles.’”
 
The infrequently told joke was cited on Twitter on June 20, 2009.
