A retired couple on vacation are traveling through South Dakota and came up to the exit to the state capitol, Pierre.
The husband says, "Do I need to take the Pee-air exit?"
"Yes," replies the wife, "and just to let you know, it's pronounce Peer."
"Sorry honey, I may not know a lot but I did take two years of high school French. I know that it was a long time ago but I'm fairly certain that it's pronounced Pee-air."
"I'm telling you, Larry, it's pronounced Peer. My second cousin, Hattie used to live in South Dakota and she says everybody calls it Peer."
"Well, Hattie couldn't possibly know everybody in South Dakota. I'm sure the hicks she hangs out with just don't know any better. Hattie ain't the brightest candle on the birthday cake, y'know."
Naturally, as couples that have been married for so many years tend to do, an argument over a simple thing can't be dropped and neither of the couple is willing to concede. Finally the husband says, "Listen, it's about time we got something to eat. Let's pull into that fast food place and while we're here we'll ask one of the local yokels what the proper pronunciation is."
So the retired couple go inside, places their order and the husband asks, "By the way, how do you pronounce the name of this place?"
The blonde behind the counter got a confused look on her face and then said, "Burrrrgeerrrrr Kiiiiing."
