This pun works better if told, especially to someone who knows how to count in French. Do note: pronunciations are important.

America, Spain, and France were participating in a cat swimming contest. America's cat was named One Two Three, Spain's cat named Uno Dos Tres, and France's cat was named Un Deux Trois. When the gun went off, all three cats were thrown into the water. They thrashed around until they made it to the end. One Two Three won first, Uno Dos Tres second. However, Un Deux Trois was nowhere to be found. After searching, someone finally pulled him out of the water and the announcer said, "Un Deux Trois quatre cinq!"
