Why did the gamer cross the road?
Q: Why did the gamer cross the road?
A: A meeple was already on the field behind him.
This joke refers to Carcassonne - the board game. In that game there is a rule that you cannot place a meeple into a field that is already occupied by a meeple. If there was already a meeple in a field, you would have to go across the road to put a new meeple down.
The humor here, therefore is derived from the fact that few people would recognize the reference. This makes the listener feel like they have privileged information.
