Yes it was a different variation. Here is another from the same time....

Paddy arrives in Rome on his vacation and heads to Vatican City to find a bar.
Paddy: "I will have a pint of whatever the Pope drinks"
Bartender: "Sir, the Pope only drinks Benedictine"
Paddy: "Ok, I will have a pint of that"

10 minutes later Paddy stands up and falls over.
"Geez, now I know why they carry him around in a chair"
