the chances of asking 30 random people thier birthday, and having 2 have the same b-day is about a 70% lock, its really easy to get bet in at a bar.

ASk this question in the Probability Forum. They'll tell you that the break-even point for this is 23 people (to get a 50/50 chance at 2 people having the same b-day). Anything more than that is gravy.
