Title: Coming to town on Tuesday
Post by alex on Jun 17th, 2005, 10:26am
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 [hide]horse ?[/hide] I mean, he could always ride a bicycle, or a Harley. Or a zebra, a giraffe, maybe even an elephant.  :P

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

[hideb]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![/hideb]
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  8)
