Shot glass + jalapeņo + habanero + pretzel has you eating something
significant 50% (4 out of 8) of the time, not counting chips. Let's say
an average of 1 spin/employee--some dups, some no goes -- so you get
$300 for a good cause and have to eat 150 mouthfuls of something--I've
no doubt, Dustin, you can take the heat. But that might be a lot of
stuff to swallow.

How about $1 gets various options, the hottest being a shot of Tabasco?
$2/jalapeņo, $3/hab, $4/mustard, $5/salsa and $10/Dave's mumble sauce?
If you get a 150 spins with an average of $3 that's $450!

This could be fun! How about for a premium the spinor get to pick a
spinee, so to speak? On top of the base price? Hmmm, might run out of
spinees fast that way!

Good luck! Keep us up to date!

Hot regards,

Riley...who got about 10 plants in the ground this weekend. Didn't have
to worry much about last frost date either. First day they wilted from
100+ degF!
