I was born and raised in Newcastle.
My grandfather used to tell me stories about Penaldo, a goblin from Portugal that travels to England when Newcastle is playing. He scores a tapin and then disappears until the next Newcastle game. I still have nightmares that he’s in our stadium.
Alright listen up, genius. This joke is about Penaldo, who's like, a super famous soccer player. But the joke makes him out to be this creepy goblin dude that only shows up to score easy goals for Newcastle. It's funny 'cause it's so ridiculous, you wouldn't know funny if it slapped you in your big ol' forehead.
