best proposition bets

[snorer]

not sure if this is the right forum for it, but I couldn't think of a better one.

what are some good common prop bet scenarios?

I know the "drink-a-gallon-of-milk-in-an-hour" one is a really popular classic.

The other day I heard about a saltine eating one (6 in under a minute being near impossible), and eating a tablespoon of cinnamon. What else is there?

Mostly looking for ones dealing with things to eat, short physical tasks, etc, but looking forward to hearing all.

$20 says I can SIIHP.

Sorry, Snor, I thought I was in OOT.

Here are some I remember:

Balance a dime on a nickel on a quarter

Hold an egg lengthwise in your hand and try to break it

Pin someone to the wall using only one finger

This is what I've heard(and a friend of mine has seen): Quite a few people can drink a gallon of milk in an hour so that's not a good "under" bet, eating cinnamon is also possible but gives ya the runs. The latest prop around here is mustard, 200 grams in 10 mins. Make sure it's HOT and brings tears to your eyes if you are betting on failure.

[snorer]

cool, thanks. I believe for the milk one to work, you have to have a time period after the hour, say another hour, in which they can't throw up. Is that the key, or is it still possible to keep it down?

What kind of mustard is this exactly? Does it have to be spicy or will any generic standard mustard do?

The saltine bet is good because with practice you can pretty easily go both ways. Most people scoff and think it's easy and will be suckers. Some might realise there must be a trick, but if you pool lots of saliva and don't chew very much before you swallow it's managable. It will hurt a bit to swallow, but if you know some degenerate gamblers it's +EV.
