What do you call a wreath made of $100 bills?
Aretha franklins.
The joke “What do you call a wreath made of $100 bills? Aretha Franklin.” is a play on words that combines the concept of a wreath with the name of the iconic singer Aretha Franklin. The humor arises from the phonetic similarity between “Aretha” and “a wreath of.” When spoken aloud, “a wreath of Franklin” sounds like “Aretha Franklin.” The joke cleverly connects the idea of a wreath, typically made of flowers or leaves, with currency, specifically $100 bills, which feature the portrait of Benjamin Franklin.
