Bar bets

[somethingstupid]

All,

I think you'd have to be retarded to accept a bar bet that someone else proposes.

Here's my favorite ever:

Bet someone a beer that they can't stand perfectly still for the time it takes for you to walk three laps around them. They'll oblige, you walk two laps around them, go to your table and sit down. Unless they want to stand in one spot for the rest of the night, they're buying you a beer.

A good bar pool trick is this: Put the eight ball on top of a five-dollar bill in the center of the table. Bet someone the five that with the eight ball on top of the five-dollar bill, you can hit the cue ball from one side pocket in to the other without banking any other rail and without touching the eight ball. If they agree, pick up the five, roll it tightly, place the eight on top, like a tee, and shoot the cue ball through the "tee" from one side pocket to the other. The eight will fall out but never touch the cue.

casper,

My point is that unless you hang around a lot of stupid people, these are a waste of time. And they'd have to be incredibly dense to accept > 1 of your wagers.

Take a bottle of any spirits, bet them you can take a shot from the bottle without opening it.
Then turn the bottle upside down and pour a shot into the bottom of the bottle and drink.

You vastly underestimate how many stupid people there are in a typical bar.

So this would work with any spirits bottle? Even the ones with flat bottoms?

Want to drink free for life?

Spend $50 to get "Your Name" tattooed on your ass.

Works like this:
You : "I've got your name tattooed on my ass."
Mark : "No way"
You : "Bet you $$$, I got your name tattooed on my ass."

Collect winnings, walk to adjacent college bar during spring break, repeat.

This sounds like an old New Orleans homeless person trick. I bet you a quarter I can spell your last name. Ok. Your last name: Y-O-U-R-L-A-S-T...
