shaggy dog story

A long, harrowing tale often beset by misfortunes that the protagonist endures, only for all his/her/its/their victories to be rendered pointless in one move.

The quintessential shaggy dog story goes like this: One day, a man was hiking when he had a terrible fall. Then, he was discovered by a shaggy dog. The man worked through the pain to take the dog home. After tending his injuries and feeding the dog, he discovers in the papers that a rich couple were looking for a shaggy dog, and were offering a reward for anyone who found it. The man then sold everything he could think of to buy a ticket to the owner's residence area. He even paid extra for handling the dog. When the man landed, he scraped just enough money to get a car. He went to the dog's owner's mansion, but missed the gate. When the man got to the door, he and the dog were shot dead by a guard.

play stupid games, win stupid prizes

A warning that dictates that intentionally doing something agreed to be foolish or stupid will only result in negative consequences for the person doing the idiotic thing.

Jack apparently looked down the barrel of his pistol to see why it wasn't firing. It seems he didn't remember the maxim of "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" and blew his brains out on accident.
