I didn't really *bet* them- they were just trash talking each other:
"you gimme $5 I'd eat one". Of course, none of them had $5 so the
banter went on for several minutes. I finally slapped a $20 on the hood
of my truck & told them *I'd* pay the $5 if it would shut them up. They
lined up & I set the conditions: I got to pick the chile and puking
would mean I kept the money. The first one ate it & was in *agony*! he
was running around eating the grass trying to get the burn to quit. The
rest stood there mumbling to each other: "it can't be *that* hot, can
it?". Four more took the challenge. I told them I onlyhad sympathy for
the first one because the rest should have known better after watching
him.
I think 3/4 got the $5 (one puked in the corn field on the way home) and
all FOUR decided it wasn't worth the $5 :-)
