Playing spades with asofel as my partner.

Me: "$20 says you'll pick up the next 4 tricks"
asofel: "Dude, I can see my cards, there's no way I can do that"
Me: "Sure you can. Take the bet"
asofel: "Uhh... ok"

Loses next trick.

I almost bet skipper bob that I was going to finish
exactly 4th tonight in trout.
I am really good at 4th.
but I wanted odds......
would have been dumb.

I once bet my son(13) $20 Canadian, (we were in Montreal),he couldn't eat a mouthful of blue cheese. We were at some sort of welcoming/happy hour hotel thing.
the resulting vomit made it pretty dumb....

Coin-flipping, whether I can phase my hand through a wall (I said yes getting 10000:1), the WNBA All-STar Game(East), the Pro Bowl(AFC), timeframe for a cure for AIDS(I give 10:1 and get the over on 10 years), the definition of temerity (I got it right). Whichever of these you thing is stupidest is the stupidest bet I've made (that I can think of anyway).

Macdaddy and I were drunk one night. We bet $100 on flipping a quarter (we used to flip a quarter for basically every meal we ate too). I won, but in my excitement I jumped and punched upwards into a hard wooden ceiling. I think my nuckle was either fractured or very badly bruised, hurt like a bitch for 3 months.

5 dollar coin flips are fun, what time is it, will a Copag card burn, who is the dorm tramp going home with tonight, and I can get a higher grade in Biology than a devoted Bio major.

Betting on whether or not I got a higher score than my friend on Physics test. I now have to ask a girl to prom.

Pretty sure Uallgointap and Juha Helpi were flipping quarters for 1K a toss on the last night of last year's Bahamas trip.
