Riddle # 122
Difficulty: Medium

Code: Select all

A man walks in to a bar, its a cold dark bar, not many people seem to be there, and those who are, are to drunk to realise it. This man, quickly realising he does not belong in this bar, walks up to the bartender and asks him for a glass of water, the big, butch, hairy bartender turns around, looks at the man and pulls out a gun from behind the counter. He quickly points it at the man. The man, simply smiles, says thankyou and walks out.
