Here is a cool little riddle a bartender posed to me a few months ago.
It took me several hours and more than a few Scotches to get it.



If you know the answer try not to spoil it too quickly for everyone else.
Feel free to U2U me if you want to guess.

Please everyone feel free to add your own riddles/puzzles/brain teasers here as well.

is it even possible to understand it if you haven't heard it before?

First clue for Fe is a periodic table symbol for iron ?

I'm a bit wasted...so nothing better comes to mind...

Yes,

Fe is the symbol for iron.
That is what will lead you to the answer.

I'm thinking the answer is related to an item used in a certain sport usually played by older people.


EDIT:

A favorite riddle of mine -

I get it...the riddle is...that it's not a riddle...just a random thought with a purpose to mislead about having a purpose.

Right?

No, but an interesting guess. Jiggerj thought the same thing.
I didn't think about golf at all when I was getting it.

They both feel good. But you wonder who's been there before.

Even if I'd thought of that I wouldnt have believed that was the answer. I've been going bosseyed staring at it thinking it might be one of those optical illusion things
