excellent
my friend and i worked 2gether on that one and got it!!!
i thought that like sam was the name uv da lawyer as well....but urs is much betta!!!
Couldn't it be someone else who was in jail, like a friend or relative of them or something? But still really great!
That was a good one.. clever and tricky but not to tricky!!.. Great Job!
great teaser!! that one was fun! It was kinda hard, but not too hard! good job! keep it up!
Urrn. Pretty good but I heard that one only about a million times before.
You caught me on that i thought it was his legal time to go out that is to say that his prison sentence is finished...
Ha Ha Ha Good One
I got that one right away. Easy but still clever.
i had him visiting someone, so close
very easy, you just have to read carefully
I liked it
Good one ! The hint was very useful! I liked it!
Ooh! I thought he was PLAYING MONOPOLY with his lawyer!
I liked this one, but I feel the hint was entirely unnecessary. Let 'em figure it out on their own.
Wow, what a fun twist! Unfortunately, I didn't get it. I thought maybe Sam was convincing his lawyer to bribe the judge, who was the lawyer's wife, or something. Great teaser!
WOW that was EASY!!!
nice one though,
i love being able to solve them

I thought Sam was visiting his friend in jail
Lawyers have to be able to think like a criminal. I guess this one went too far.
Got it easy when I read "lawyer in jail" Cool one though.
I thought either his jail time was up,or the judge changed his/he mind.
i thought it was a third party they were talking about. but your answer is more cleverer than my answer. nice one
I got it with out the hint, but I liked the way the hints were written. Thanks
I've seen so many of these type teasers that the answer was easy.
You got me. Last thing I would have thought of. Thanks for posting.
Fun!
I thought he was in there for public intox, and by the time they were done talking he had sobered up...
if I'm visiting my lawyer in jail, I think I might get a new lawyer.
The answer came rather quickly to me, but I am still wondering why he is visiting his lawyer?
I would probably never visit mine.
I would probably never visit mine.
I thought that possibly he was now going to his trial? Great teaser.
What is not mentioned is that Sam's ankle bracelet is beeping right now...
Would have to agree with qua006.
Too easy
Fun , but really easy.
I said he wasn't the one in jail. Close but I guess the lawyer was important too.
It was fun.. but it was too easy! I didn't even have to think about it!The answer was obvious.
Or else, they could both just visiting the jail, for some other reason
it was pretty cool
THis teaser kinda seems like it belongs in situation....
Very, very, easy! Got it as soon as I read it!
That was the first thing I thought of then figured it couldn't be right because it was too easy. Once I noticed it was in the "trick" category I was sure I was on the wrong track. Not sure "Trick" is the best fit for category.
Very very easy. Stero type teaser. Seen way to many of these.
I almost never read jokes or do quizzes that have anything to do with attorneys, but... (Just kidding!) Have a great weekend, everyone!
Seems like just yesterday! Thanks for posting!
a little too easy
A similar joke was used in the Simpsons episode "Duffless."
Another one for the kiddies, me thinks?
