This is a cute brain teaser that young and old alike can enjoy: A cowboy rides into town on Tuesday, stays three days, and then leaves town on Tuesday. How can that be? The answer is that the horse's name is Tuesday. Corny, yes, but it will make your kids think!

I've heard it as Friday, but the gist is "A cowboy rides into town on Tuesday, stays for a total of three days enjoying himself at the saloon playing cards and drinking whiskey, then rides out on Tuesday. How is this possible?" His horse's name is Tuesday.
