Bets

So one of my broker's interns is going to try to eat all the items in the vending machine (pretty standard bet) in one hour. Market is apparntly 25/26 on # of items.

Another guy took down 60 chicken mcnuggets in under 15 minutes. That's impressive.

 

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.

 

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.

 

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.

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

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.

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.

Once more into the breach, dear friends.
 

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 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.

1. 20 crispy cremes under 1 hour with no drinks.

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

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

 

Lol this thread is a classic.

my summer internship $900 for me to eat a large eggwhite with bacon and jalapeno pizza in 2 hours. I made about 2/3 of the way before my body said enough. Their were a few side bets on if i could do it too. The guys from the desk i was on all bet for me and the desk next to us all bet against me.

dude total dibs on that shit... i won $300 homecoming weekend for shotgunning 12 natty lights in an hour, had to keep it down for 15 mins after... coke could be interesting because of the sugar content but i think i could take on this one

Are you serious? You need to come over to england so you can learn how to drink, that sounds like a pretty typical night (minus the shit tasting beer)
