    Here is a really hilarious pun:

    In ancient Rome it was customary for candidates for office
    to seek support among the crowds of the marketplace.
    Since the marketplace was usually bustling with activity,
    it was quite common that the solicitation would
    be overheard by other shoppers and merchants.  One year, a candidate,
    alleged to be the son of a cook, was campaigning
    among the stalls and booths.  While he was attempting to convince
    one man to vote for him, a passerby said: "Ego quoque tibi favebo"!!!
