When he gets there, the devil comes over to welcome him. The devil then says, "Sometimes it gets pretty uncomfortable down here."

The man says, "No problem. I'm from Winnipeg."

So the devil goes over to the thermostat, turns the temperature up to 100, and the humidity up to 80. He then goes back to the Winnipeg man to see how he's doing. To the devil's surprise, the man is doing just fine.

"No problem...just like Winnipeg in June," the man says.

So the devil goes back over to the thermostat, and turns the temperature up to 150, and the humidity up to 90. He then goes back over to see how the Winnipeg man is doing. The man is sweating a little, but overall looks comfortable.

"No problem. Just like Winnipeg in July," the man says.

So now the devil goes over to the thermostat, turns the temperature up to 200, and the humidity up to 100. When he goes back to see how the man is doing, the man is sweating profusely, and has taken his shirt off. Otherwise, he seems OK.

He says, "No problem. Just like Winnipeg in August." Now the devil is really perplexed. So he goes back to the thermostat, and turns the temperature down to MINUS 150 DEGREES. Immediately, all the humidity in the air freezes up, and the whole place (meaning Hell) becomes a frigid, barren, frozen, deathly cold wasteland.

When he goes back now to see how the Winnipeg man is doing, he is shocked to discover the man is jumping up and down, and cheering in obvious delight. The devil immediately asks the man what's going on. To which the Winnipeg man replies.....

"THE JETS WON THE STANLEY CUP!!!"

"THE JETS WON THE STANLEY CUP!!!"

I fundamentally reject the premise of this joke.

Ottawa is already hell.

He would’ve just woken up.

A rare sighting of my hometown in the wild! The only reason anybody has heard about Winnipeg is because of hockey.

Winnipeg gets all sorts of random shoutouts; several episodes of the Simpsons, that time the docs in Grey's anatomy liased with st. Boniface hospital, she- hulk went on a date with a guy banned from Winnipeg. It's kind of funny how much is just randomly mentioned in pop culture.

The Office had an episode where they went to Winnipeg, too. I guess it's the butt of a lot of "where the fuck is that?" jokes.

In my head I'm substituting NYC for Winnipeg, and Superbowl for Stanley Cup.

The New York Jets are getting better. Also, the Winnipeg Jets are currently second in their division, so they very well could go far this year.

I was thinking. Every year. And every hockey season Canadians are lambasted with how good the Maple Leafs are going to be and how good they are. Kinda gets boring after the first couple seasons. Hahaha. Sorry for the rant. Hahaha.

When people say America, especially given this context and talking about Canada aswell, it is given that “America” means the United States.
