The rich man laughs.
The poor man says, "I am willing to bet you all the money you have in your wallet that I can sing a genuine song with a lady's name of your choice in it."

Really good! Had me stummped! And when I saw the answer I thought, why didn't I think of that?
Exellcent job! Yeah same here, I thought why didn't I think of that!!!!
You are the champion. Lots of fun.
In my opinion, the mark of a good trick teaser is when you want to smack yourself for not knowing the answer when you see it and it seems so OBVIOUS, but you're totally stumped when you're thinking about it before hand...this fits that criteria. Good one
OMG! THAT IS SOOO GOOD!
ADD MORE STUFF!

Apr 30, 2003
This is one of those "If I was in a different state of mine I would have been TOTALLY stumped," however, I was only partially stumped. The answer I came up with was "The Name Game" (y'know banana nana fo fanna fee fi fo fanna ANNA...or whatever), but I like yours better.
Happy Birthday! I was thinking something more like an old lady's song! Great Teaser! Keep the good stuff coming!

This reminded me of the old Taxi episode when Loui (the evil dispatcher) was remembering when he was a driver and he picked up this con-artist kid who kept using brain teasers to get money from him. Hilarious episode.

how much is ?50 worth in American dollars? I don't think I get that symbol. does it stand for pounds?
Hey tcolligan, whats a 'Taxi' episode?
£ stands for British pounds! I'm from the uk this is why I chose to use £ rather than $. hope that has cleared things up

I had figured it out right away, along with a couple of other answers. I also thought of "The Name Game," and "Joanna" by Cool and the Gang. Not a bad teaser.
Wow, that was great! I don't think I'd ever have guessed that.

That teaser was clever. When I saw the answer, It was so funny!
When i read this i was really looking forward to hearing this song that the guy was going to sing with the name Joanna Armstrong-Miller in it. Good one
it was a good one but technically its wrong. if u read the actual wording the poor man went home poor and he rich man went home rich. the bet was for the money in his wallet and yet he pulled it out and was holding the wad in his hand. they actully bet for no money.
Congratulations to the last poster. Missed the point entirely. You mook!
i actually figured it out after a minute!

lol, my first thought, before I finished the puzzle, was that the question was "poor man on the bet, but no money, how?"
great one! first one added to my favorites.

UHHH ok, i didn't get that at all?
I was laughing for hours. J/K. Great teasers.
that's a good one!
and funny too
and funny too
For some reason i was thinking that the trick was that it could be ANY song, all the poor man had to do was sing any song and put the name into it GREAT TEASER THOUGH definitely one of my faves
as the brits would say: JOLLY GOOD TEASER!! (no i am not making fun of brits. i'm 1/4 british) GOOD DAY!
repeat, repeat, repeat, this is 2 years old, lol. Great teaser though.
i got a laugh from this one. not bad.....

That was pretty funny. I liked it a lot.
That's hysterical! Plus, it's my birthday today, so that makes it even better!
this is the 1st "trick" teasr that i missed it was incredibly clever now if you will excuse me while i go and kick myself into insensibilty for missing that one *kicks self*
and in a momentary(or not so) bout of childishness: i can do this too: £ and to prove that i didnt copy and paste here are some more. DøGßø¥ =H4xøR LL4M4 ok not all of those are weird symbols but w/e

I want to know where they got the pounds charachter.... I don't have one on my keyboard!?!? good one!
too easy and how do we know that he didn't have just 50 whatevers cus the rich man took it outta his wallet so if he didn't have anything else in it then they woulda gone home with the same amount of money
took all of 10 seconds to figure outr, but not bad.
had me stumped-good one
Hey the person that submited the comment about the 1,193 letter word. This is a question for you. What does that word mean?
Apr 19, 2005
If the rich man pulls all of his money out of his wallet, then the poor man has won nothing! ( He bet on the money "in" his wallet)
Thats a good one. I didn't figure it out but when I saw the answer, I was amazed that I didn't get it.
Cute but very easy.
That was fun More please
taht was gr8!!!
kewl
that was funny!
He He that made me laugh that was a good one!
good one
too funny good job
That was a funny one! I didn't get it though, but I laughed really hard when I saw the answer.
That is funny . I really enjoyed it thanks.
Apr 20, 2005
Great teaser! Can be used to make lots of money in a bar with lots of drunk people!
I agree with ahd62, that's the first thing I thought AFTER I immediately got the answer.
"The other mook"
"The other mook"
That was a great one! Look at all the comments! Really popular! Think I`ll try it on my friends. Who knows I might win some money!!! Just joshing!!!
That was really funny
I have already seen this one so i got the answer right away!!!
Wow... excellent riddle.. why didn't i think of that?? not bad
This was cute
But i agree with the folks that point out that the money had been pulled out of the wallet.
If it said 'all the money in your hand...' then it would work better.
Plus the word 'genuine' is kinda' not the right word, because he could have sang any song and replaced the name or other lyrics with the girls name, or made up a song with her name in it. As long as there is any kind of melodic vocal, it is a genuine song. 'Popular' would have been a better word than 'genuine'.
And i can't imagine ANYONE would have taken a bet like this for so much money, maybe a couple of bucks, but not all the money they had, UNLESS...the rich man was REALLY drunk....then i guess none of these points would matter.
But if the poor guy is going to take advantage of a fellow in this drunken state, he could have just robbed him in the parking lot without having to sing a note.
...but i still found it entertaining.
Joanna Armstrong-Miller had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow....

He took the money out of his wallet--was there more money in there? But good teaser otherwise.
hahaha
this one did stump me, (feels stupid), but this is rather dull, i give it a good grade, but it still is a rather empty.
Very well done!!!!
I agree w/ you Super....If the rich man pulled out 50 from his wallet, then what was left for the poor man to win?, (who mind you was "feeling" poor and not officially poor according the riddle.) Tim, you sure do put a lot of thought into these....too cute.
i loved it
That was brilliant! The hint threw me off, somehow.
I should've known that..it was so in your face ...really good one
HAHAHA...I was singing every song I knew trying to remember one that had the name of Joanna. LOL You got me!! That's excellent!!!
happy birthday dear joanahh armstrong miller doesnt flow enough to be a song
this is really funnie i liked it a lot i wuz actually trying to think of a song that had that name in it lol okay well i liked it
and by the way...toocute4u....ur 10 month old sister could NOT have done better than that because chances are....SHE CANT TALK YET! and arent these comment forums for POSITIVE FEEDBACK or KIND CRITICISM??? so if u dont have something nice or positive to say...please just keep it to ur self...n if u have time to drop nasty notes lyk that....well....then u have too much time...so go do something useful, please!
Wonderful! Really good one! Well done.
hey, toocute4u i think you have some serious anger issues to deal with

banananana-fo-fana
fe-fi-fo-fana

I thought of "We didn't start the fire" by Billy Joel cos it has so many names in it ! But the answer is in the simpllicity itself I guess !!!
Nice one!! good job. My guess was the "A B C " song from kindergarten, since it would have each letter of every name in it. (names spelled using only the 26 English letters, of course)
keep up the good work
keep up the good work
hahaha im not very pasient so i looked at it for about 10 seconds then clicked the hint looked at it for 2 seconds thought about it for about 5 seconds and clicked show answer that was great

Excellent. When I was at U.T. Austin, there was a Prof. Hill in the linguistics dept. whose claim to fame among grad students was that his 2 maiden aunts wrote "Happy Birthday" and he inherited the copyright! Made him rich, but he chose an academic career nonetheless.

Good riddle, amusing answer. I came up with "Joanna" by Kool and the Gang. Is that wrong?
Do not know if it is good when something this easy is not overthought , but woohoooo I got it
that was pretty nice
would really consider that a genuine song though?

With so many comments, may as well add one more. Don't know how many know the history of "Happy Birthday," but it was written by two maiden aunts of the last name Hill, who copyrighted it. When I was at the Univ. of Texas at Austin (years ago), there was a Prof. Hill in the Linguistics Dept. who was their nephew and heir, and he received worldwide royalties on "H.B." Rumor was this made him a rich man.
Pretty easy one.
Luv it. Luv it. Luv it. Good Job...Three thumbs up...
Funny.
Post this on wocka, too.

You really got me good with that one
this is the first teaser going to my favorites. IT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry, i've always wanted to do say that.
that is sort of cheating, but clever nonetheless. probably the rich guy would not accept that as a real song.
Hahaha, nice one. I said the "Name Game"- you know, the one where you rhyme the name with banana?
Yeah, but yours is definitely better.

At first I thought it was the song 'Oh, Johanna!'.Hahaz Nice one.
Not only a very old repeat. It was first used by Adam or Eve.

and then he got sued for infringement...
I was afraid it was going to be something stupid like the alphabet (which would make no sense), but this one worked! I'm just pissed I didn't get it. Very nice
Great teaser. I would have never thought of that.
I almost got it correct, but I did not think of it as Happy Birthday. Excellent Trick. Keep Them Coming.
Very funny.

Nice
I initially thought, for whatever reason, that it was John Jacob Jingle-Heimer Schmit. Eventually, I went through my calender and saw "Mom's B-Day". Consequently, I figured it out!!! Brilliant teaser!
in my favs!!
I am so amazed that so many have never heard this one before. It is a very old one, tossed around a lot. Still funny though!
I must have this one somewhere because I got it in a few seconds. Funny,
Going in my faves even if it is a repeat.

Wow, this one was actually kind of hard! Nice job on the teaser though!

the guys had to sing her name.... he didn't say it would be a real song.....

I've seen this one in Uncle John's Bathroom Reader.
OH MY GOSH YOU GOT ME
Awesome! Had me stumped for a while, but then I looked at the hint and: I guess everyone knows happy birthday? And then yeah
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. I got it very quickly and did not need any hints.
I was thinking The Name Game. I think that that answer should count too haha
