The Van
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.
Three guys were walking home from school when a van pulled up to them. The man in the van tried to convince the boys to buy his merchandise, and eventually one of the boys gave in and bought some. The boy used some of the merchandise he purchased; and seconds later, he felt a strong head pain. His friends never tried to help him or call anyone to come help. What is happening?
Answer
The man in the van was the ice cream man. The man in the van tried to convince the boys to buy the ice cream, so one boy bought one. After the boy ate it, he had a "brain freeze" or "ice cream headache", which is intense head pain.

| I was thinking that either is was drugs, some guy was selling whacks to to the head, or another kid smacked him upside the head. |
