Lateral thinking puzzle: a man walks into a bar ...

Another one for you folks:

A man who wanted a drink walked into a bar. Before he could say a word, he was knocked unconscious. Why?

Ailsa

P.S. This and previous puzzles are from Lateral Thinking Puzzles, by Paul Sloane. I highly recommend it.

Because he hit his head on the bar when he walked into it?

Re: Lateral thinking puzzle: a man walks into a bar ...

OMG! Sorry, I was making a joke, I didn't realize it's the real answer!

You know the joke, "two men walked into a bar, which is kinda funny since you'd have thought the second guy would've seen the first guy hit it"

or its variant "So a guy walks into a bar..." Me (interrupting) "Did it hurt?"

Or the one where the horse walks into a bar and the bartender asks "Why the long face?"

Or the termite who goes into the bar, hops up on the barstool, and asks the guy next to him "'Scuse me, where's the bar tender?"
