A cowboy rode into a town on Tuesday. He spent three days and three nights in town and rode out on Tuesday. How did he do this?
That's my riddle... Can you guys help? Please...

Does it have to be a horse ? I mean, he could always ride a bicycle, or a Harley. Or a zebra, a giraffe, maybe even an elephant.

He rode into town on Tuesday, walked out of town on Thursday, walked back into town on Sunday, and rode out on Tuesday.

| hidden: | | I agree with SWF. He stayed Wednesday, Sunday, and Monday. The question doesn't say that he stayed for 3 days and 3 nights in a row! |
And, where's the name?

ahh but SWF ur way doesnt seem to work
he walks in tuesday so he has Tuesday night, wednesday night and leave thursday
2 nights 1 day
sunday walks in, so sunday night and monday night
4 nights 2 days
but depending on his arrival times of each time he walked in, it could be 3 days
however it all depends on the relative point of view in calling something a night, and something a day
so either way... sry.. i just got carried away...

If it was Friday's horse (from Dragnet), then we could say that Friday rode out on Tuesday

You gotta know you're up to something when you name your horse after a weekday
