"Personal Blessing" joke

All the town residents had dressed up in their Sunday best for the Pope's visit. Everyone lined up on main street, hoping for a personal blessing from the Pope.
One local man had put on his best suit, sure that the Pope would stop and talk to him. He was standing next to an exceptionally down-trodden looking bum, who not only looked awful, but didn't smell very good either.
As the Pope came walking by, he stopped, leaned over and said something to the bum, then continued on right past the local man. He couldn't believe it, then it hit him. The Pope didn't talk to him because he's concerned for the unfortunate people; the poor and the feeble ones.
Thinking quickly, the local man gave the bum $20 to trade clothes with him. He put on the bum's clothes and ran down the street to line up for a second chance for the Pope to stop and speak to him.
Sure enough, the Pope walked right up to him this time. He leaned in close to the local man and said, "Didn't I tell you to get the hell out of here!"
