The Empty Grave
A drunk leaves a bar and decides to take a shortcut through a cemetery. It is raining heavily and very dark, no moon.
It is Halloween night.
He doesn’t see an open grave and falls into it. He tries to climb out of it but the rain has turned the dirt to mud, it is too slippery to climb out.
He gives up after a while and goes to sleep.
A while later another drunk leaves the same bar and decides to take the same shortcut through the graveyard.
He, too, falls into the same open grave and tries to climb out, but the mud is too slippery.
The first drunk awakens and watches as the other drunk tries but fails to climb out.
He gets on his feet, taps the second drunk on the shoulder and says, “Give it up, you’ll never get out.”
But he did.

Pardon my ignorance, but I don’t get it. What am I missing here?
