Lightning will generally follow the path of least resistance. It acts just like water flowing downhill, which rarely (if ever) flows in a straight line. Lightning will follow a crooked path in order to reserve energy, jumping to and from charged particles in the air, until it reaches the ground.

How does lightning pass through a lightning rod to the ground?
Lightning follows the easiest path to discharge its energy. Ionized air during a storm causes the lightning to seek that quickest path. A lightning rod's sole purpose is to attract any lightning in the presence of ionized air to come toward the rod. So for example, lightning will seek the closest metal or tall object (including humans).
