I heard this old story someplace, not even sure if it’s true or where to give credit.
It was the night of the children’s christmas play and little Johnny was upset because he didn’t get the part of Joseph. He got assigned the inn keeper.
Because he was still bitter, when Joseph and Mary arrived at the inn to ask if there was room, little Johnny threw the play by saying, “sure, come on in!”
Jospeh didn’t know how to respond, but with quick wit, stepped in, looked around and said, “this place is a dump, I’d rather stay in the barn”.
