I believe this to be true, but hey, what do I know?
There is a tradition in horse racing circles to name horses so the commentators inadvertently say something rude or amusing when describing the runners in the manner of the two ronnies sketch with the butler âyour nuts my lordâ (youâre).
One owner tried to register three horses at the same time. They were called
Hercules
Pericles
andâŚ
Testicles

I also remember a horse called âShy Talkâ.

Obviously named after flying rats (pigeons)!
And there were horses in Australia named: Lovin Deqoqueâ and Get On Deqoque.

At a rent-a-boat company, the operator said into the microphone, âBoat 99, your hour is up, please head in.â
An employee walks up to him and says, âWe only have 75 boats, there is no boat 99.â
The operator then said into the microphone, âBoat 66, are you in trouble?â

How could there be a record of when boat 99âs hour was up?
Itâs a joke, not necessarily logical. Best not to over analyse these things.

They could have a system whereby every boat below a certain number started their hour on the water at the top of the hour, and boats with higher numbers started their hour at half past.
I hope that enables you to access the humour in the joke.

A bookie once asked Brian Clough if he could name his horse after him. Clough said no, so the bookie named the horse Blabbermouth.

There was once a story doing the rounds that someone had attempted to name a race horse âNorfolk and Chanceâ but this was understandably banned by the Jockey Club (are they really the regulators?) DGP

Not in the least. In your scenario you allow for the existence of a boat numbered 99 whilst the employee has already confirmed that there isnât one.
Blimey, fixed it for youâŚ
