A man lies dead in a field with a straw next to him. What happened?

Suspence · Daedalian Member

Is this your ordinary everyday drinking straw?

I see!!! I guess this one's been around the block.

Might I suggest that when you come across a puzzle you already know that answer to, you just leave it alone rather than posting the answer, even if you use invisable text? I know most of us have seen this one before, but some might have enjoyed it.

So what's the answer? I came to this thread after the solution reply was edited.

SaberKitty · one can always be hopeful...

Moggy,
why don't you ask some questions to figure it out

Mog · Kupo?

Okay okay, I'll ask some questions. So, IS it your normal everyday drinking straw? If so, was it filled with anything that would bring about his death?
