On my way to the fair, I met 7 jugglers and a bear, every juggler had 6 cats, every cat had 5 rats, every rat had 4 houses, every house had 3 mouses, every mouse had 2 louses, every louse had a spouse. How many in all are going to the fair?

Wouldn't it just be you? Because you're on your way to the fair.
Just because you met 7 jugglers, and a bear, doesn't mean they're joining too

You... there is another joke like this using a bus driver dropping off riders. ''You're the bus driver'' you pick up 3 riders and 2 get off... next stop 3 more get off and none get on... next stop 5 get on etc... etc... then after you have them baffled with remembering numbers you ask then... ''Who's the bus driver'' and most say I don't know..lol

You alone. You said you met these jugglers and so on along the way. You never said that *they* were going to the fair?

no

No, none of these is the right answer. There may have only been one, though it is possible he was overtaking slower travelers heading in the same direction and chatting with them briefly. There is no clear indication of how many jugglers are moving in each direction, but if there is a fair, would not some jugglers be likely to head for it? Of course, the traditional answer is one because it is assumed that all he meets are going in the opposite direction and the whole object is to set up a massive misdirection, such as Obama loves to do.

Ur answer choices dont add up? But this plays off the old famous riddle once used in the Die Hard movie sequel part 3... As I was going to St ives riddle.... The correct answer is one man....the other animals arent going any where.
