“A guy walks into a bar…” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” An elf version is:

“An elf walks into a bar. The hobbit laughs and walks under it.”

“An elf walks into a bar. A hobbit walks under it” was posted on Twitter by Astara aka Sinaea on May 10, 2008. “An elf walks into a bar. The hobbit laughs and walks under it” was posted on Twitter by The Bodega on November 23, 2012.

The joke has been printed on several images. “Hobbit” is replaced with “dwarf” in some versions of the joke.
