Message: <blockquote data-quote="Telor" data-source="post: 248299" data-attributes="member: 1786">One of my favorites:At a dinner table with some kind of court:In order to prove that they are smart enough to solve a problem for the kingdom the group was given a wine glass (must be a wine glass - the kind that have a wide base above the stem and narrow at the top) and an olive. A tumbler is placed before them and they are not allowed to touch the tumbler with anything.They must use the wine glass to place the olive in the tumbler.Do you guys know the solution to this puzzle? I won't post it right away to give people some time to figure it out on their own.While I was waiting for my table at an Olive Garden, the bartender gave me this puzzle and said no one (that he has given the puzzle) has ever solved it without help. I solved it in 5min and he gave me a few drinks on the house. -Telor</blockquote>
