Inane bar question

[TruffleShuffle]

I asked this question to several people at a local watering hole tonight. About 4-5 years back, I was at an establishment and came upon a certain monetary bill that was lying in a trough that served as a urinal for said bar. This is a trough with a continuous weak stream of water (not unlike a dentist's faucet) but also with a nearly continuous stream of men who need to drain themselves.Say you were in a bar, using the bathroom, and a similar situation arose. What denomination would the bill have to be, for you to reach in there and grab it as your own?

$5

20

I don't know how much drinks are at a bar usually but I figure I could get a couple drinks out of $10 to help make me forget I did that.

Urine, while smelly, is fairly sterile. I doubt I'd do it for $5...$10 maybe...$20 definitely.

[TruffleShuffle]

I had to vote $100 because the bill was a $20, and I didn't reach in and grab it. Probably part of that had to do with peeing into the trough and seeing other people pee into it. But in hindsight maybe I should just grabbed it, run it under the faucet for a little while, and then headed to the bar and spent it.

Probably 10

[OleMissCub]

Went with 1,000

Most of the bills in your wallet right now are about as clean as one that would be in a urinal, most are covered in germs from the constant changing of hands.

Urine is a sterile liquid, so it's not that big of a risk to reach in and grab it.

[treebird]

i would probably be willing to do this for a 1 or a 2, as well

 

spare change is where i draw the line, unless it's like a bunch of quarters or those dollar coins or something. i guess you could just rinse those off and theyd be good as new. hmmm . . . .

[CubinNY]

I've touched way worse when I worked in a group home. I said $100.

[Chocolate Milk]

Would have to be more than 5. Depends on how long I've been at the bar.

Not once it's been sitting there, such as in a urinal. Then there's quite a bit of bacteria in it.

i'd do it on a double dare for free

[Transmogrified Tiger]

i'd do it on a double dare for free

 

So you're grabbing Monopoly money out of the urinal?

if the peer pressure is just right

[wolf stansson]

Just rinse it off, dry it on the hand dryer and then wash your hands.

 

5.

More akin to a physical challenge, but that would at least net you $40 and control of the round.

Imagine if they people had to grab the flag out of a urine trough? Marc Summers would still be washing his hands today.

[soccer10k]

It depends on how much I've already had to drink that night but I said $10.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Are we picking this up with our teeth or something? After having kids, I'd grab a single out of there without thinking twice.

[Roast]

It'd have to be a hundred for me. I work as a janitor at a church now and then and urinals are disgusting to have to clean. I don't care how sterile urine is. So yeah, 100.

[Derwood]

Finding money is great. I once found a wad of bills in the parking lot of a Toys R' Us that totalled $350. Merry Xmas to me...

I'm not a proud man, but I'd like to relay this story.

 

Picture it, Halloween 2005 in the Lincoln Park area. I'm dressed up like Capt. Jack Sparrow and stumble my way into the men's room.

 

I'm doing my business when I notice cash sitting in the urinal to my left and the sink to my right. I'm not one to stop mid-stream for money (it was a long night of drinking), but I make a note to grab it ASAP.

 

In comes a lady who was tired of waiting in line for the women's room. She does her business and goes to wash up. She notices the cash that I've laid claim to in my mind. Me being the enterprising lad that I am don't even pretend to stop the flow I got going on, look at her and say, "I call dibs."

 

The final total that I absconded with? Seven dollars. I even washed off the cash from the urinal before putting it in my pocket.

 

Suffice to say, I voted for five dollars.
