DBAHO Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Ok then; A batboy who chugged a gallon of milk in an effort to win a $500 bet with Brad Penny has been suspended by the Marlins. The kid drank the milk in the alotted time frame (an hour), but couldn't hold it down, thus losing the bet. Now that he's been suspended, we're guessing the players will take care of him, as it sounds like he provided them at least $500 worth of entertainment during the ordeal. Penny is not happy with the suspension, and has a good point. ''It's kind of ridiculous that you get a 10-game suspension for steroids and a six-game suspension for milk,'' Penny said.

LosMediasBlancas Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 That's f***ed up. Where was a bat boy gonna get $500.00? What kind of a f***ball makes that kind of bet with a kid? Where's Penny's suspension? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Sounds like it was more of a deal than a bet. You chug this milk, and we'll give you $500. It said he provided $500 worth of entertainment, so they must've paid him the money. On another note, I wouldn't recommend doing the gallon challenge. My buddy did it last year and he was sore for about a day. He was about a sip away from doing it before he "lost" it. The sound was funny, though, as it sounded like someone dumped a bucket of water into the toilet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelasDaddy0427 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 That is hilarious... Although you also have to feel for the kid... I can't even chug two glasses without throwing up... I can't imagine trying a gallon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love milk, don't drink it by the gallon, but it's never made me sick. Must be a guy thing.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santo=dorf Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I drank 2/3 of a gallon in 20 minutes. I couldn't go on, and eventually it came back up. :puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not the brightest, though, as evidenced by the fact that he said he's going to try it again this year. QUOTE(Texsox @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 11:24 AM) it was probably the "vessel" he drank out of . . .

Punch and Judy Garland Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I believe you physically can't goldmember, that's why its a sucker bet. Stupid suspension though. Sounds like simple dugout fun. When did this happen if it was Penny and the Marlins. Was it when the Dodgers just played them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 You guys should spend a summer on a trading floor. This stuff happens all of the time when people with money get bored. I remember seeing someone try to eat 20 Big Macs in an hour, 60 recies cups in an hour, this same milk stunt, hold a CBOE rules and regs book over their head for 45 minutes, and many many people getting tails.

I thought I could do it with 1%, but the problem is when you start burping it hurts your chest and you can feel the milk trying to come up.

WilliamTell Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Yeah that's really stupid. I've dranken half a gallon in 5 minutes and I didn't feel anything, but I've never tried the second half before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend is a big boy, and he couldn't do it, though he came close. This same kid ate 5 whoppers with everything in an hour and drank something like 8 cups of pop a minute or two. EDIT: And he ate breakfast about an hour before the whoppers and ate a big dinner later in the day.
