Epic Bar Tab

[triangleforge]

You know you've accomplished something when you get handed a bar tab for $156,679.74 -- including a $25K tip.



It's kind of funny to imagine the Boston Bruins settling this one at the end of the night after winning the Cup: "OK, who had the four Jagers, two Bud Lights and a bottle of Crown Royal?"

One imaginative version of the story here:

I keep getting the mental image of Steve Carell saying "Put it on my tab"

I can't fathom $156K of boozing.

The bulk of it is whatever the hell a bottle of ACE Midas is.

Apparently, a 30L bottle of champagne, one of only six in the world. Probably as appropriate a moment to pop the cork as any, especially if you've got a Stanley Cup handy to pour some of it into.

Makes sense then, bit crazy of a price but then again that would be a bit crazy of a celebration.

Don't get to drink bubbly from lord Stanleys cup too often. Might as well go big.

But almost all the beers are light beers? I'd expect better....

No, no, no...

I think you're all mistaken.

That's SacDuc's and DanTheMan's tab from West Coast DIMBY... 

...and slowpoke with all those cases of Mickey's.

Hey, that comes out to a mere $3600 a liter.

That's insane... and I thought I've been drinking a lot on vacation.

i wonder if they all chipped in and who the guy was that "forgot" his wallet. lol

would like to see the Maverick's bar tab as a comparison...

Wow!  Googled it, and Bruins put em to shame! 

"After the Dallas Mavericks won their first ever NBA championship, owner Marc Cuban treated his team to a six-figure celebration.

The team rang up $110,000 at Club Liv in Miami's Fountainbleau Hotel, and $90,000 of the tab was from a single bottle of champagne: a Nebuchadnezzar of Armand de Brignac - a 15L bottle that is the equivalent of 20 regular sized bottles. Cuban also left a $20,000 tip for the wait staff after partying with the team until 5 a.m."

of course they did...cause hockey players are tougher and there are more of em!!!

I'd be proud of either bar tab! But I wouldn't waste the bulk of it on bubbly.

Cuban is a hoot. We kinda get sick of his BS here in DFW but he was strangely quiet during the playoffs and a class act at the end. He can afford the tab.

[thought]

how about $47k for dinner for 6?

They had to throw the espresso in there when Johnny Walker kicked in a little to much.
