I thought this was a good one.

Once there was a man named Sandy. One night, he was out drinking in a bar. The bar closed at 3:30 am. It was already 2:45 so he decided to head out. He took a step toward the door and fell flat on his face. He got up and took another step but again, he fell flat on his face. He gave up and crawled the whole way home. When he reached his door, he went to stand up and again he fell flat on his face. Sandy crawled to bed. He tried to stand up there but this time he fell flat on his bed. The next morning Sandy's wife said to him, "I see we were out drinking last night." How did Sandy's wife know?

the bartender called, Sandy had left his wheelchair at the bar.

Haha I got really confused where this post went but yeah that’s correct. Theres also another answer. Its a very obvious answer too

[Guest]

As she said "I see WE were out drinking", of course she knew. She was part of it!

The bruises in his face?

yeah I guess that could work but thats not how she used the word WE. No hits on the second answer yet though.

He didn't get undressed? So his clothes still smelled like bar, and he was covered In street grime?

you never stated that he left the bar at 2:45 am. He actually left his home at 2:45pm so his wife probably knew where he was going

Sandy had left his false leg at the bar and the bartender called to tell his wife to come and get it.

That could work too. But heres a hint.

think of why he has the wheelchair

[Guest]

His legs don't work very well, and he's forgotten this, so he tries to walk but he falls over

[phaze]

get the cast in the first place?

jake is an amputee with no legs

[Guest]

jake is an amputee with no legs

Jake is? you mean sandy? and yeah thats the other answer congrats.

[Guest]

Jake is? you mean sandy? and yeah thats the other answer congrats.

So my answer was correct too then.

[bonanova]

Jake is? you mean sandy? and yeah thats the other answer congrats.

The OP says that he took a step toward the door. Should we take that as "was about to" or "tried to" take a step?

And should we assume she knew, not because he was an amputee but, because the bartender made a call?

And what would the call be about, if not a wheelchair? That answer is already given.

[Guest]

I agree with the previous post, that is just why he couldn't walk home it does NOT explain how his wife knew and is thus not a second answer.

Well when you are drunk you dont remember certain things. And thats just an addon to the first answer.

More explanation:

He was too drunk and forgot he didnt have legs and a wheelchair. So, he went to take a STEP towards the door but fell. His wife did have to go and get the wheelchair so thats how she knew. so the second answer is absically answer 1.5 haha. sorry for the confusion.
