Hello guys, welcome back to my blog. Today I am going to tell you about some funny Mexican jokes that I picked up while going through Reddit threads.
I like this kind of joke because it is not mean, it is just wordplay, and honestly good wordplay is what my whole blog is about. So if you are looking for funny Mexican jokes that are simple, easy to remember, and safe to say in front of anyone, you are in the right place.
I am only sharing the jokes that are pure puns here, nothing that makes fun of people in a bad way. I think a joke should make you smile, not make someone feel small, so that is the rule I followed while picking these.
Juan-Liner Jokes (My Favorite Kind)
A lot of funny Mexican jokes online are actually just puns on the name “Juan,” and I find these honestly very clever. It is a simple trick, but it works every time.
The most famous one asks, what do you call two Mexicans playing basketball? The answer is “Juan on Juan,” which sounds exactly like “one on one.” I laughed the first time I read this one, it is such a simple trick but it lands so well. (Source)
This is basically the same style as a “dad joke,” if you ask me, the kind of joke that makes you groan and smile at the same time.
The Roberto Joke
Here is another one that is 100% just wordplay, no bad meaning at all. What do you call a Mexican with a rubber toe? Roberto. Say it out loud a few times and you will get it, “rubber toe” turns into “Roberto.” (Source)
I think this one is smart because it only works if you actually say it in your head. It is a hearing joke more then a reading joke, if that makes sense.
The Little Caesars Pizza Joke
This one is more silly then clever, but it still made me smile. The joke goes, what do Mexicans use to cut their pizza? Little Caesars. It is playing on how “Caesars” can sound close to “scissors” when you say it fast. (Source)
Honestly this one only works if you say it out loud with a bit of an accent, but that is what makes these funny Mexican jokes fun to tell at a party, everyone tries saying it their own way.
A Spanish Language Pun
This last one is actually in Spanish, and I think it is a good one to know if you are learning the language too. The joke asks, “Como se dice ‘nariz’ en ingles?” which means “How do you say ‘nariz’ (nose) in English?” The funny answer is “no se,” which means “I don’t know,” but it sounds just like the English word “nose.” I think this is honestly a genius little trick, language puns like this are rare to find.

Fun Facts About Mexico
Okay guys, small break from jokes. While I was researching for this post, I also found some real facts about Mexico that I did not know before, so I made a table for that too.
| Fact | Detail |
