Sukkot 1957 – Elvis Presley had been on a visit to Israel. He was fascinated by all the booths he saw and by the religious men waving their lulavim and etrogim. When he got back to the U.S.A. he told Tom Parker, his manager, how wonderful his trip had been. Inspired by it all he sat down and wrote the top hit – “I’m all shook up”.

• Why did the lulav break up with the etrog? It just couldn’t handle the shaking.
• I’m not saying my sukkah is small, but I have to go outside to change my mind.
• Did you hear about the guy who built a sukkah in his treehouse? It was an elevated experience
• Why did the farmer build a sukkah in his field? To enjoy a corny celebration.
• What did the lulav say to the willow? Shake it up!
• What’s the best part of building a sukkah? The framework of fun.
• Why don’t lulavs play cards? They always get shuffled.
• Why was the sukkah so good at problem-solving? It was always thinking outside the box.
• What do you call a lulav that can sing? A palm-ster.
• How do you make a sukkah laugh? Tickle its rafters.
• What’s the best way to keep your etrog safe? Lock it up in a fruit crate.
• Why do sukkahs always look so happy? They’re full of festive spirit.
