You have to figure out what's going on here and why:

A man walks into a bar and orders a glass of water. The bartender pulls out a gun.

Could this riddle be something to do with the movie "Coyote ugly" ?

The man has the hiccups hence the glass of water,the bartender wanted to scare the hiccups out of him though...Sorry.

Nicely done damnsuicidalroos.

Okay, here's another...and no fair if you have already heard the answer!

A man is walking. The music stops. He dies!

What's going on here?!

Some sort of very high stakes Musical Chairs?

A military execution - with drums stopping when the riflemen open fire?

Good guesses, but no keep trying!

ooooh, I know this one! It helps to ask questions...

oh, is it in a comuter game, where the little guy is walking, and while the game play goes, the game music plays. when he dies, the music stops because it is game over.

Okay....here's a clue since nobody has even been close so far:

The man is blindfolded

Good luck!

Umm...something to do with walking off a cliff?

What about a firing squad?

I read the answer to this somewhere, the blindfolded/blind version. It's so convoluted/intricate though, nobody would guess it. =\

Yeah, I asked my friend, and she had heard it before and told me. It is pretty obscure though.

Okay- here it is:

The man was a tight rope walker at the circus. He used the music to know when he was on the rope. It was suppose to be stopped when he reached the end platform, but it stopped early causing him to fall to his death.

Thanks for participating!

Sorry, you need to explain the gun part to me.
