It's a Party!
Situation
Situation puzzles (sometimes called lateral thinking puzzles) are ones where you need to ask lots of yes or no questions to figure out what happened in the situation. These are good puzzles for groups where one person knows the puzzle and answers the questions.Situation
There are hundreds of people invited to the party of the year! The guest list consists of the wealthy and celebrities. The party started without a hitch. People were mingling, laughing, and having an overall good time. Out of nowhere, 10 masked men and women showed themselves. The robbers carried guns and bags. They instructed the guests to place their jewelry and money into the bags. The robbers got away and were never caught because no one called the police. Why?
Answer
The 'robbery' was part of the party. It was a fund-raising party, and instead of simply giving the money in the traditional sense, the guests were 'robbed'. The guests were willing participants and only put what they wanted into the bags.Hide Answer Show Answer
