Credit Card roulette is a staple on all of our group trips. You'll appreciate this MM - I ended up biting it and buying the carbo-load for 8 guys before last year's Twin Cities Marathon.

Sometimes we do it in reverse: waiter pulls out 1 card at a time - last one in the hat buys. For a really stupid meal - like Morton's in Vegas with waaaaay too much booze consumed, we'll say 2 out of 8 split it. (We do this simply because for a meal like that, there is no way for one loser to recover.)

I always chuckle when I lose one at an iDine place. Big winner and big loser - all at the same time!
