And Card Roulette season has commenced...

Card Roulette - the ultimate rush, the climax of any meal/soirée. The only time outside of a sporting endeavor (whether you partake in it or you're just watching it) where it's appropriate to go for the double handed high five.

Card Roulette (yes, I always double capitalize Card Roulette - get used to it) takes place when a group of friends go out for a meal or beverages, and it might just be the best thing since Ralph Lauren came out with its Purple Label.

So here's how it goes...

1) A group of unsuspecting buddies are enjoying their meal and beverages, not paying attention to what everyone is getting (except for the token "what are you guys having" friend, but no one pays attention to him anyways) and just having a good time;

2) Upon completion of the feast, the server brings the bill when all of a sudden, and unbeknownst to everyone, one of your idiot buddies yells out "Card Roulette, CARD ROULETTE EVERYONE";

3) Because nobody wants to be the one that didn't play Card Roulette, everyone takes out their Platinum credit card (NOTE: I'm sure there are some non-Platinum holders that play the game when they go to Burger King or something, but that's not the point here) and puts it in some kind of container;

4) Server then picks one card on which the entire bill will be charged;

5) Once the cardholder has been identified, all but one at the table scream of joy and double high five each other, a parade led by a Korean high school marching band emerges from nowhere, and confetti is thrown all over;

6) The "winner" then proceeds to tell all his friends how much he hates them for taking the $95 filet mignon and for ordering that bottle of red no one even touched while he only had the penne and four Bud Lights;

We had a quick game the other over lunch and I'm very happy to say that Young Bucks won the draw. Bomber and I proceeded to high five each other. It was a good one to loose though, only $130.

We will be keeping score using this entry in the comments section.

Let the games begin people.
