As the two of them sat up on the stage, the Queen leans over to the Pope and says, ""Watch this! With one motion of my arm, I can make this whole crowd go nuts!"" The Queen then turns to the crowd and does her famous ""Queen wave."" Sure enough, the crowd goes nuts. After thinking for a minute, the Pope leans into her and says, ""With one motion of my arm, I can make this whole COUNTRY go nuts!"" He then proceeds to backhand the Queen.
