Unicorn Jokes and Puns
Have you heard the one about the unicorn who joined the orchestra? Everyone from the brass section say playing the horn went to his head……. da dum tsst! Enter hysterical laughter, unimpressed eye rolls and dads jaw hitting the floor after nearly suffering a stroke, induced by the grand daddy of all dad jokes.
They may not be the first thing that strikes the tongue when entertaining your crowd of friends at a bbq. But unicorns can provide a rather unique repertoire of comedic value that might just have your guests knee slapping and cackling for hours.
The cool thing is, although unicorns are often associated with children’s fantasies and stories, they moonlight as a potential treasure trove of humorous one liners and witty puns that can be enjoyed by the whole family. Cheeky, naughty, child appropriate, there is a unicorn joke for all occasions.
Let’s explore some of the possibilities available to us. From that sneaky gem you keep tucked away for the perfect moment, to the quips tailored for specific events. They’re all here, and ready to be unleashed on your audience.
What Are Unicorn Puns?
The difference between a pun and a standard joke is that a pun explores the different meanings of a particular word, or words that are part of a sentence in a way that makes the sentence become humorous.
For example, if you know someone who loves golf, you could say to them “we should go clubbing sometime”. Initially people would assume you mean going out night clubbing. A golfer however, might pick up on your pun which is a clever way of saying “we should go for a game of golf” (as golfers use golf clubs).
So what does this have to do with unicorns? Well plenty, if you’re here to discover how you can weave a unicorn into a funny tale. Here are a few examples that might peak your interest. But be warned, you might just get the pointy end.
- I tried to grow maize in my backyard, but my plant only grew one harvest. You might call that a Uni – corn.
- I love living next door to a unicorn. They make the best neeeeiiighbors.
- What do you call a grandfather unicorn? Pop – corn

- Unicorns ought to be banned from Facebook. All they do is poke people all day.
- A unicorn and a Mare were caught robbing a bank. The unicorn admitted he was Co-horsed into doing it.
As you can see, a bit of wordplay can create some amusing results. The trick to puns is finding your foundation word and then building the joke around it, while also keeping the two separate meanings relevant. If you can string a few different puns together in the same joke, you’re on your way to becoming legendary at the pun game.
