Bill Please .. WTF $54,000.!!!

[Guest FourAces]

Now I've eaten at this steak house and it is expensive however, the average per person at this dinner was about $1,000. I think for two of us our highest bill was about $225 and that included drinks. I wonder how much Dez left for a tip

-----------------------

Back in July, there was a big to-do about Cowboys rookie wide receiver Dez Bryant(notes) refusing to carry pads for fellow wide receiver Roy Williams. It's tradition in the NFL that rookies perform menial chores for veteran teammates, so Bryant's refusal drew some attention and criticism.

The mini-controversy blew over quickly. Bryant apologized, Williams accepted and everyone moved on. Williams did mention, though, that Bryant would have to pick up a dinner tab, and at the instant that Bryant refused the pad-carrying, Williams suddenly got a little hungrier and a little thirstier.

After the Cowboys beat the Texans, it was finally time for that dinner. The end result? Bryant probably wishes he'd have carried those pads. From Calvin Watkins at ESPN:

Monday night at Pappas Bros. Steakhouse, Bryant took the offensive players out, then Williams invited the defensive players and when the night was over the bill came: $54,896.

"They got the young fella," said Bryant's adviser David Wells. "What could he say? He had to pay it unless he wanted to wash dishes for a month."

Players ordered basically everything on the menu and even took home bottles of wine.

Looks like Williams got the last laugh.

If they were ordering everything I could easily see a bill getting that high.

Champagne can be drunk very quickly and can be very expensive.

There are dudes in New York who ring up $100,000 tabs at nighclubs on a regular basis.
