Mission: Nuggets
Quote: ontariodealermaybe you guys ought to expand this to an open event.....one of my fellow craps dealers here says 100 nuggets no problem.
Wow there may be more money making opportunities. Maybe the Wizard can add Professional McNugget AP to his resume'.

From now on I'm going to stick to forum members only.

probably a good idea.
Quote: WizardSo, I told her I would pay for all the McNuggets and give her $50 if she succeeded. Nothing to lose on her part. Since she was a little hungry anyway, she said "sure." This video is what happened.
Funny how her t-shirt says 'Pierce' :)

I think you're onto something here. Offer this
challenge to homeless people and we'll make
prop bets on how long before they hurl. I
guarantee you'll make national news with
it in no time, and you're also feeding the
homeless. Kind of. It'll be like the Vegas
version of the Hunger Games.

I noticed that as well. Maybe she is a lurker of the forum and was there to root him on.
Quote: Beethoven9thCool, sounds like a valiant effort though. I applaud you. I'm sure it was the change in climate that had the most effect.
You did say "rematch" in the video. Are you really going to do it again next year?? :)
No, I thought about it, but changed my mind. Wizard and I have a different prop bet running, that I am very confident I'll win, but don't know if I am to discuss the specifics of that one or not.
EDIT: By the way, I especially appreciate you saying that given that you lost on me. The climate change was killer, like I said in the post-game, I think I'd have only been about 50/50 to do it anyway, at that point, even if not for the choking.
I was also kind of stupid not to have blown my nose more often, it was pretty full the whole time. I just didn't want to keep blowing my nose on camera, or I would have probably blown it three or four times as much, so that's just bad decision making.
I'm not going to try this again because, well, I don't want to, but I can confidently say that I would be a huge favorite at home. Despite not drinking Friday and getting some decent sleep, I was also a little more tired than I would have liked to have been. I should have scheduled it for in the morning, I'd spent about five of the previous seven hours staring at Video Poker!
Great day on VP yesterday for low stakes, an absolutely monster day, but more on that in my soon to come trip report.
Quote: odiousgambitPierce, I apologize for the others. The terrible remarks that have been made, "never live it down", and all that, despicable.
And that guy who said the disgrace reminded him of this video ought to be ashamed!

There's nothing to apologize for, I'm not offended by either statement. Any loss is difficult to live down.

I believe it was coincidental, a "Pierce The Veil," shirt, I think it was. That's a fairly popular band.
Quote: Mission146Any loss is difficult to live down.
Well, there is that aspect but truth be told, you were a great sport and the whole thing was a tremendous bit of fun thanks to you!
Quote: Mission146I consumed 26 drinks last night comprised of beers and mixed drinks, and ate a breakfast basket of scrambled eggs, biscuit, bacon and home fries and did not regurgitate, nor was I anywhere close. In summation, I never threw up any of the nuggets and felt no better or worse after the Challenge than I felt before it. My breathing passages failed me, my stomach was just fine, I drank a 50oz beer within an hour and a half after the competition. I went to a bathroom to actually TRY to puke them up prior to drinking (nutritional value) and was not even able to bring myself to puke.
Wow, good showing! We should party together next WoV gathering. You could probably drink me under the table...I agree though, drinking competitions are not a good idea...
I hope the rest of your trip has been enjoyable at least.
Quote: Mission146There's nothing to apologize for, I'm not offended by either statement. Any loss is difficult to live down.
I don't see why it's difficult to live down. At least you tried. Unfortunately I think that that this thinking is common, and it prevents people from trying things that they might fail at (even though they might succeed too!) Congrats for trying, in public and on camera, no less.
I bet against you, but that's only because the feat sounded really difficult. And it was only $50.
Quote: WizardI just checked my Paypal account and can confirm that BBB paid in full. Thank you for the prompt payment.
You're welcome! I look forward to the opportunity to win it back!
Quote: beachbumbabsYou're welcome! I look forward to the opportunity to win it back!
That you shall have. In fact, that remind me of another betting opportunity I need to post about...
Quote: PaigowdanI had ordered a McRib Sandwich and ate it during the early stage of the challenge. I seldom eat this, I usually eat at home, or at steak houses or Italian restaurants when out, but hey, I was there. I live near an In-n-Out Burger, and occasionally grab one of their burgers. I have been sneaking more meat into my diet, too.
You can see my wife in the video as the lady in the lower left photo-bombing the video at 3:10 - 4:00.
You live on or near Eastern south of the 215? Perhaps Silverado Ranch?
Was just wondering :)
Quote: PaigowdanI live at Dean Martin Drive and Jerry Lewis Way (seriously), near Trop and I-15, - right by the Wild Wild West, which itself is right next to an In-n-Out burger.
There were two possible in-and-out burgers it could have been and I chose the wrong one :)
Got to admit, In-n-Out is a great burger.
Quote: PaigowdanThere's a third one on Maryland Parkway.
Got to admit, In-n-Out is a great burger.
I have to 100% agree with you. The burgers are always good there.
Fatburger isn't too bad and sometimes Red Robin can be good too.
Mission said he could eat 100 nuggets? Did he do it?
Who bet on what?
Quote: sodawatercan someone give me the cliffs notes of this thread?

3 months or so ago, another thread caught Mission's attention and he said he could eat 100 McNuggets in an hour and hold them down for 10 minutes. The Wiz challenged it as a prop bet. Other people got in on both sides of it after Mission said he didn't want all of the Wiz's action. There was some discussion of where and when, and it ended up being staged at the McDonald's at the D downtown Vegas last Saturday. Several people turned up to witness. Mission got very clogged (says he started that way and it got worse) and became unable to continue midway through due to saliva congestion making him unable to breathe. Speculation is that it was either a food allergy and/or the dry Vegas climate that caused the problem. Officially, Mission did not complete the challenge and the prop bet win was "No". We are in the process of settling the bets.
mission should have been dunking the nuggets in water like pro eaters do.

I'd say those two nights in Vegas are the only times this year I've drank anything close to that, but my tolerance has always been good. I usually only drink one or two glasses of red wine once per week, sometimes a little more.
Thank you, and the rest of the trip was great. The Challenge was great, it's a minor consolation that I know I'd have succeeded but for my sinuses.

Tested it with ten once, too gross, wouldn't have got through twenty of them.

Ahhh.....a red wine drinker, I knew I liked Pierce :-).....open up some Caymus and have a great Holiday Season!

Hmmm... The more I look at the picture the more I notice Missions perfect form. This guy may very well be an Advantage Puker.
Quote: AxelWolfI do love the fact that you buried your head in the trash can. This certainly set up some doubt what came out. Well played sir, well played.
Thank you for the compliment, as you know, I'd almost had a toss before that in which actual true vomit (definitely comprised of nuggets) came up, but not out. I mainly buried my head because I didn't want to make a mess on the outside of the trash can, the grounds people would have had to clean it up.
I never think of such things when I'm about to vomit.Quote: Mission146I mainly buried my head because I didn't want to make a mess on the outside of the trash can, the grounds people would have had to clean it up.

Neither did Morgan Spurlock. He went all over the parking lot.
He is very honorable and someone I wouldn't hesitate to make another wager with.
Thank you, DRich. I appreciate those kind words. Merry Xmas. *thumbs up*
Quote: DRichJust wanted everyone to know that Beethoven9th settled up his Mission Nugget bet with me. I checked my mail this morning and received a nice $100 Xmas present.

Internet wagers among strangers often go unpaid.
Nice to see bets like this settled. Well done Beethoven!
I wonder, how often do "honor system" bets on this forum go unpaid? For something like the NFL picks game, where many people will end up owing one person money... how many don't pay?
AHHHH the long con...... well played Beethoven, Well playedQuote: DRichJust wanted everyone to know that Beethoven9th settled up his Mission Nugget bet with me. I checked my mail this morning and received a nice $100 Xmas present.
