not really a prop bet, more of a Crimson challenge/"I'll pay you if you can do this"

for one year,
1) every time he orders food from a sit-down restaurant, he must order it "ala mode"
2) he must do this even if he knows the restaurant does not have ice cream
3) if the server questions him on it, he must indicate that he is serious and his preference is for the ice cream to be put directly on the food
4) if the server refuses/brings it on the side/whatever, nothing happens
5) he does not have to eat the ice cream
6) he must keep a blog of any interesting happenings

he said his price for this is $2K

No I realize I have to allow drinks.

I just wasn't going to allow the drinks to be included in the $50 pre tax food purchase.

But we still haven't worked out ALL the other details.

just allow one soda to be included and make him refill it rather than buying another if he needs more.

I found this thread and was so excited.

Not so much after reading. I expected better from 2+2. Let's step it up please.

You cant allow drinks IMO, and you must stipulate that you cant take off things from the itmes.

I suggested a similar prop bet earlier in the thread only it was taco bell. When I suggested it in my head I was going to angle shoot the hell out of it. Just order a bunch of small drinks and pack them full of ice before you drink them, and order nachos bell grande minus cheese, meat, sour cream, and beans (so basically a plate full of chips). But thats too weaksauce so I just let it drop.

If he cant angle shoot, unless hes some sort of competitive eater, theres no way he can do it IMO. $50 is a [censored] TON of food, even if he chooses his menu items wisely.

If someone can drink 50x16oz of liquid in an hour without puking or going to the bathroom, more power to them.

Bleh. How about I bet I can go undefeated in a season on 5 min. quarters with whoever the worst team is. Difficulty All-Madden. Play all games back to back.

ok, but you can only use running plays, and you are never allowed to kick a field goal.

Can I do it on Madden 06 on the ps2?

Actually I wouldn't do that to you.

Would there be any defensive limitations?

I'm trying to hash out details of a prop at work.

Little help me be pleasing.

Prop was taken from an earlier post in this thread.

I bet a coworker he could not eat $50 worth of mcdonalds in 1 hour.

we started to talk about the details and are trying to come to some conclusions.

1. Any food on the menu is acceptable expect for salads.
2. Food must be consumed in 1 hour without being sick until all food has been consumed.
3. $50 dollars is PRE TAX.
4. Who should pay for the food?
5. We were trying to figure out odds ...I initially gave him 2:1 (my $200 to his $100) but then we had to figure out who purchases the food.
6. Should drinks be allowed to be included in the $50?
7. Should I be concerned that he seemed happier to be able to buy like 100 nuggets over 12 big macs or whatever it would work out to monetarily?

Help me out here.

He weighs about 260lb and is relatively built what are his chances in your opinions?

Thanks

Casper

I think this will be easy for him considering the chicken strips at mcdonalds, those things are pretty expensive and are pretty small for their price.

Maybe we can play online for 1k? Ship money before hand to a respected poster.

Im up for a prop bet involving taco bell. I bet X dollars that I can eat Y dollars worth of food.

X and Y are up for negotiation. I set Y in the range of like $50

i'll bet up to $200 that you can't eat $50 worth of taco bell in one sitting

i'll bet 200 that i can eat 50 plus dollars of food in one sitting

2 hours is ******edly long for this bet. Youd have to give odds for it to be fair in that case. When you say "buys the food" do you mean he picks out what you have to eat or you just mean he pays the $50. Cuz if I get to pick the menu items I'd prolly book this bet with you (assuming the time limit was lowered)

somehow I think making four posts in a row basically begging to make a food prop bet isn't going to help you get action

how much would you need to climb a 3 story restaurant in the middle of your lunch in the middle of a busy city?

Here's a couple random ideas:

* For six months, only self propelled transportation is allowed (e.g. walking, running, or riding a bike). No public transportation and no hitching a ride with a friend or stranger. No motorcycles, mopeds, or Segways allowed.

* Everyone was talking about losing weight. Try gaining 50 lbs in six months.

* Dress like a full out transvestite for thirty days. Must maintain normal lifestyle.

* Absolutely no personal body hygiene for thirty days. This includes showering, shaving, brushing teeth, wearing deodorant, body spray, or cologne, household cleansers, car freshners. Must wear the same set of clothes for the same period - which can't be washed. Wiping your ass is allowed. Must maintain normal lifestyle - no vacations allowed.

Obviously, the length of this bet varies from person to person. For someone who works in a formal office setting, thirty days is a long time. However, for some poker players, this may be norm.

* Become a Freegan for thirty days. Absolutely no help from friends. Which includes dumpster diving in their trash. Never know what was "accidentally" thrown away.

* Combine the personal hygiene and freeganism into one bet: Become homeless for thirty days.

I had an idea of maintaining a specific BAC for a length of time, but I'm not sure on the feasibility/safety or even stupidity of it.

The timeframes are just thrown out as ideas. For the record, I'm not interested in betting.

i would do the person hygine bet for up to 500 but i would need 3-1 on my money

Wow that's a long thread but good.

Here is a good challenge that I think would be very difficult to do but technically possible.

Maintain a full polyphasic sleep schedule (Uberman - up to 6 30 minute naps each day) for 100 days (or longer).

Obviously verification would be a bit of a problem and I think this would be tremendously difficult for anyone with a career but I've seen crazier prop bets.

I might be down for this. I have never tried it before but it sounds really interesting and if I could do it for even a little while it'd be pretty productive even if I eventually lost.
