You know what’s better than an evening bar crawl where you drink yourself silly? An evening bar crawl where you recoup every last penny you spent on booze with this series of nine pub bets you’re always guaranteed to win.
They were cooked up by R. Paul Wilson, the writer and host of one of those ‘how not to get hustled’ shows. So some might call a few of these bets a straight-up con. But they’re not. Technically. Every single one is solvable as long as the other person thinks outside the box. It just so happens that’s usually impossible when the person you’re betting is drunk as a skunk, so consider these as just slightly tipping the odds in your favour.

Title should say; ’9 ways to get beaten up by drunkards’
The guy is British but trick 8 is about a stack of quarters and showing USA coins… where’s one supposed to get them from in order to trick people in a UK bar? he could have done it with UK coins…. I do like the last trick though… very unexpected.
That was great – I was thinking “I’ve seen all these on ‘The Real Hustle’”
The guy off The Real Hustle is the dude behind the video..ha! (had no sound to hear him)
