Alright, listen up, buttercup. This joke compares the Toronto Maple Leafs, a hockey team, to the Titanic, the ship that sank. Both looked great at first, but then, uh oh, things went downhill fast once they met the ice. Get it? Because hockey is played on ice, and the Titanic hit an iceberg (which is ice). It's funny because the Leafs often fail to live up to expectations. I bet you have high expectations too, and often fail to live up to them.
