Have you ever won a bet that you made money on? What is it about men when they get a little alcohol in their bloodstream they suddenly know everything? Well here are a couple of challenges that if done properly will expose the welchers out there. So if you bet for money, make sure you see theirs before the bet. Usually, a group of witnesses will always stop someone from welching because of pride.

Bet #1- I cant tell you how many times I won this bet. The tonality and way you say your proposal will make it or break it.
You state: I bet I can determine the score of any sporting even before it even starts and be 100% accurate every time.
Most guys will say what? You repeat parts of the sentence but not the whole sentence. The reason for this is they heard you the first time, unless there is noise in the background- they heard you.
You again state with a confident demeanor: any event (give your own examples- football, baseball, etc) 100% accurate EVERY TIME.
At this point you will get questions like “oh yeah why aren’t you a millionaire?” or “bullshit”, generally they won’t believe you. That’s when you take out however much you want to bet, and tell them in whatever manner you want to bet you.
Once their money is on the line, state zero to zero and quickly take your winnings.

Bet #2- This is an oldie, but I have been surprised to learn that not as many people have heard this one as I thought. This works best with a bunch of drunk guys trying to impress the ladies with their testosterone levels. First you steer the conversation to talking about how much you can lift and feats of strength you have done (real or not).
After which you state: I can knock down that wall.
Here’s where your acting needs to come into play. Some may have heard this one most of you have probably heard it, but you would be surprised how many haven’t. After the bet is laid you go knock (as in knocking on a door) in a downward direction on the wall.

Does anyone else know any bets like these? Please share.
