Crimson Challenges #1 and #2 : Hot Sauce and Butter
 

Crimson came up w/ a fun idea in this thread.

This thread is to finalize details, raise money, and then post results (video, etc.) of thread.

I accepted Crimson's offer #1: $100 to drink bottle of hot sauce of my choosing

and offer #2: $200 to eat 4 sticks of butter

Time limits - 1 hr

Other food and drink during challenge - allowed

Puking - must not puke for 5 minutes after finishing


Anyone who has any other suggestions re: details/parameters for these bets, please chime in.

Crimson is in Santa Cruz and can do these next week. If any 2+2ers would like to go watch/verify, that would be great, but I trust Crimson. Crimson, please post when would be good for you to do this.

I will see what Safeway has in terms of hot sauce. The 1 million scoville sauce proposed is unreasonable. I am thinking something hotter than Tabasco, but not crazy or dangerous. Something like Dave's Insanity Sauce. I will followup in this thread.

Crimson, I will trust that you don't cheat. You will have to trust my judgement on payment. If you complete the tasks, you get full payment. I will pay you some portion of the amounts if you make what I consider a valiant attempt. If there is any dispute, I will be the final judge regarding payment.

We will put some details in place like "sealed bottle of sauce, opened on video, etc." OOT will contribute feedback as to whether the video was altered, etc (ie: cut and edited so you can dump sauce). Rather than try this nonsense, Crimson, just make your best attempt and I will take care of you fairly.

Here is the current donation tally. The more the better, as I hope we will be able to fund many such challenges if these videos turn out to be as amusing as I believe they will:

Hopefully you have PokerStars, Crimson - that is the easiest place to do these transfers.

felson $25
mason55 $50 (contingent on being satisified w/ hot sauce choice)
citanul $30 (contingent on downloadable videos)

That currently leaves $195 that daryn and I will split. Would love to have a bunch of you jump in for $20-30 pledge (for use in this and other challenges). If we get over 15, I will just take the five of us here and the next 10 for $20 each, then roll the pledge list forward to future challenges.

Also, if someone could host the videos, that would be great.

I'm sure I'm missing all sorts of details. If there's anything important, please post. However, I want to keep this as simple as possible, just a gentlemanly fun stunt, not something where Crimson tries to angle or I try to weasel out of payment on a technicality.

I'd pay money to see someone try to drink a bottle of that in an hour.

Re: Crimson Challenges #1 and #2 : Hot Sauce and Butter
 

My thought is that 5 minutes is not long enough of a "must not puke" limit.

I've puked a lot, and been on the verge of puking, and I bet I could hold it off for 5 minutes, but like say... a half hour, there's no way I could fend off letting go for that long.

does the weBoggle incident come to mind for anyone else here?

Yeah but if IIRC Diablo didn't mention anything about not trying to weasel out of payment or angle shoot for the Weboggle incident.

that and the fact that he won that bet fair and square according to the rules that were presented

Re: Crimson Challenges #1 and #2 : Hot Sauce and Butter
 

i'm curious about other food being allowed. Use 4 butter sticks in some cookies and I could do that no prob in an hour. Or 4 butter sticks melted over popcorn. Or do the stick have to be eaten in cube form and other foods are allowedto be eaten with it? The latter would be fine.

I would like some video action before contributing any cash.

Yeah, see, this is the thing. If Crimson makes a batch of cookies with the four sticks of butter, he will not get paid. We all know what we mean wrt eating four sticks of butter. If he needs something to drink with it, or wants to eat something along with the butter, that's fine by me.

And the fact that Diablo didn't make whoever it was pay, but was just f'ing with him.
