Bets

60 Nugs? Damn, I bet his stomach hated him for a day.

Anyways, I say he doesnt eat everything. Is there gum in the vending machine, and if so does he have to eat that as well or just chew on it? Should be interesting.

Well, how'd it turn out?

puked after 24, which causes all sorts of settlement questions

Doing the dirty dozen is good fun. It's where you bet someone they can't keep a dozen of something (like big macs) in an hour. The bets can start off small but can escalate over time between friends. The funniest one so far has been betting my lactose intolerent friend to eat a dozen ice cream sandwiches.

Haha as a severly lactose intolerant individual myself that is absolutely hilarious. I think I might die if I ate a dozen ice cream sandwiches. And jimbo, 24 of what? What do you think was the snack that really led to his demise? I'm guessing it was the combo of Famous Amos cookies, Cheetos, and Welches fruit snacks.

Hey Jimbo, 5'5" 110 lb chick here. I can take down 21 hot dogs in 10 minutes. Never too early to start the hiring process for next summer :)

This kind of stuff makes me glad that I work with guys. It just wouldn't happen in an office with all women...

OMG. That's really impressive. We should stage a WSO eating contest. ;)

There were 31 items in the Vending Machine. He had to eat one of each. There was no gum. No idea what made him finally yack.

"Oh - the ladies ever tell you that you look like a fucking optical illusion?"

I was bet $50 I couldn't run a mile on the treadmill in the building's gym in under 6 minutes with no warm up. I did, although I was definitely hurting for 30 min after.

$50? SOMEBODY JUST GOT ROBBED!!! You could have atleast got $300 for that.

"Oh - the ladies ever tell you that you look like a fucking optical illusion?"

he wasn't allowed to boot and rally? how much was the bet for?

I think he got 2400. There were side bets going on too on how many he could do. When he yacked the entire office cheered really loud.

once bankerchick meets seamlessweb... it'll be more like 5'5" 220

lol @ seamlessweb.

apparently traders are the worst of the lot. in the CBOT, it's pretty standard to have bets where a group of people take turns passing a cup, not before spitting in it and adding $x to the pot, and the first person to swallow the entire cup gets the pot.

dunno if you guys heard this story as well, but a week ago or so, a CME member was caught peeing in the yellow listerine in the member's bathroom. they suspect he's been doing it for a while. makes you wonder what kind of people wind up as traders. :)

60 nuggets is pretty good, but my junior year in college I watched my two roommates consume 45 and 65 BK nuggets, respectively. McD's nugs might be greasier though.

My lone eating claim to fame is polishing off an entire package of Double-Stuf Oreos in 5 minutes. For a guy that weighs about a buck forty-five, I thought it was impressive. Won myself $20 in the process, too.

I have heard tell of the Wendy's double-triple challenge, a challenge wherein the combatants purchase two Wendy's triple cheeseburgers and combine them to make a six patty pile of arterial blockage. First person to finish the combined burger and a Biggie fry wins. Wendy should throw in a free coronary stent with the order.

Failed miserably at the vening machine challenge when I was an intern. Videoconference between 3 branches and each one put up a challenger. Little Debbie got the best of me.

Has anyone seen actually seen it done? Firmly convinced it is in fact impossible.

In how much time?

We had an intern in our office claim he could eat 3 from chipotle in 40 minutes and then he would have to hold it in for another hour. He got 3 down literally at the 40 min mark although some people were uncertain whether it counted if it was in his mouth or should be swallowed. Anyway he puked 5 minutes later so that stopped any further arguments burritos

The gallon challenge is always a classic. I've had a few friends try to drink a gallon of milk within an hour without puking. Never seem it completed.

Oh the gallon challenge is awful. A friend took some muscle relaxants before he tried it to stop his stomach from throwing up the milk, and he just pounded the gallon in like 30 minutes. Turns out its impossible for the average human body to process that much milk so quickly and he had to be rushed to the hospital and have his stomach pumped.

I'm working on the trading floor at a hedge fund. One of the interns ate 9 dilly bars (dairy queen ice cream bars) in 15 min. for $200. He looked pretty bad after. Plus there was ice cream on his monitors and key board.

The milk challenge is very possible. I just lost a bet with my pre-law friend. He did it in 28 minutes. I lost $16 (that's why I'm ib and he's law). He is a really skinny guy so he looked cartoonish afterwards. Didn't throw up, but was in the bathroom for 3 1/2 hours. However, doesn't compare to Joey Chestnut who does the milk challenge in 41 seconds on youtube.

So you and Jimbo are at the same shop?

Yes, I'm back. Feel free to resume any lines of retarded questioning.

No, he works at one of my brokers.

1. 20 crispy cremes under 1 hour with no drinks.
think we got about 700 in the pot

2. triple meat triple cheese burger, XL fries, XL drink with no ice ...all down in under 5 minutes.
I layed 5:1 on 100

Getting people to attempt to down 6 saltines in 1 minute is always a moneymaker.

Damn, I think that would be impossible even with drinks. Those things are so good, but turn to bricks in your stomach.

I'd take this bet w/o hesitation.

heard someone ate a fly for $50 at a BB

three big mac meals. a disgusting victory.

$50 for a tiny fly? holy shit what kind of pansies work at BBs these days?
I could clean up!!! :)

I can just imagine what hungry/homeless/3rd world citizens would think:
Highly paid American Bankers giving money to each other to eat imported american sweets and goodies.

I've seen people that would eat your waste for that $50.

haha lol

i just conquered this.
