Back in my teenage days, one of the neatest hustles was making a bet that one could not eat 2 pieces of bread in 2 minutes.

Nothing else, just the bread. (i.e. no liquids)

I once saw a guy lose $2,000 betting he could do it.


Of course, I also saw a guy win $300 when he bet that he could dent the bumper of a Monte Carlo by pounding it.

... With his forehead!

I could do it, easy...
If I chose the bread. ;-)

Perhaps. Sorry, the deal is white bread.


Every time I saw it, ended in failure.

I am sure that somebody, somewhere, could figure out a gaff.

Some day, somewhere … a guy is going to come to you and show you a nice brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is never broken, and this guy is going to offer to bet you that the jack of spades will jump out of this deck and squirt cider in your ear. But, son … do not bet him, for as sure as you do you are going to get an ear full of cider.
