Guess Herbie\'s Bar Tab Inaugural Game Thread (with prizes)
 
So in the spirit of simple games like commute - it's the inaugural "Guess Herbie's Bar Tab" game. Here's how it works - I give relevant details and variables and you guys all get to guess three things

1. How much my total bar tab for the evening will be (including tip)
2. How many Jagerbombs I will personally consume over the course of the evening and
3. What time I will end up getting home

I will also be keeping track of winners as we run these. The prize for winning is a free Jagerbomb (or other drink of your choice) should I ever actually meet any of you in person. So if you win 3 times I will buy you 3 drinks.

So - on to the game

Details -

Tonight I am going with two friends (both guys) to a bar that has $3 Jagerbombs on Thursday nights. It is within walking distance of my friend's apartment (where we will be staying tonight) and none of us have to work tomorrow. Beers at this place run about $3 as well. I will only be drinking beer and jagerbombs. We will be arriving there sometime between 9:00 and 9:30 pm. I do not know any of the bartenders at this bar so the chance of free/discounted drinks is very low. Last call at this bar is 3:45 am - place closes at 4:00 am.

Variables -

One of my friends is unemployed so I may end up buying some of his drinks. Also - one of our female friends may come out with us and I have a propensity to buy drinks for my female friends when I'm drunk. My allergies have been acting up lately so I am not feeling 100% - maybe 85-90% of optimal but nothing that should seriously impede the drinking.

Ask any questions you may have and submit your guesses - answers will be accepted until tomorrow morning when I wake up and check the thread.

How old are you?
Will you buy food on your tab?

Also - in thinking about this I will allow multiple people to guess the same answer for question #2 and will give fractional points (that round up if/when redeemed for prizes)

Depends on service/drunkenness but usually 20-30% to people I don't know

These friends are kinda weird about beer and don't do pitchers - it's really dumb but renders pitcher prices irrelevant.

Also - I'm headed out and probably won't be back to answer any more questions so just go ahead and keep guessing but the Q&amp;A is over.

Worst part of this thread is obv the fact that, with the 1 hour time difference, Herbie will be getting home from an awesome fun bar night right about the time I'll be dragging my sorry ass outta bed for work
