The riddle competition at the end, between Bilbo and Gollum, is inspired by the Norse legend of the riddle competition between the wise giantess Vafþrúðnir, and Odin, the Mayor god in Germanic Mythology (who is also an inspiration for Gandalf). Bilbo wins the competition by asking what lies in his pocket, a question, to which, only he could know the answer. This is exactly the same way Odin wins over Vafþrúðnir: by asking "what did Odin whisper in his dying son Baldr's ear?" A question, to which, only he would know the answer.
