The Big 1
"Nah, that's all right Jake maybe later, I'm gonna get a drink." you tell Jake as you walk over to the bar for a refil.
You return to the table and take a seat. "So what are you guys hunting tommorow?"
The group gets real quiet. "Well that's just it, tommorow is going to be a special hunt. Once a year we put up a $10,000 pot. The person who gets the catch gets the pot."
"Ya but what's the catch?" you still wonder.
"Well the catch is not just any animal. The catch,.....well it's a person."
Your mouth nearly drops and hits the floor from shock that these guys can't be serious but from the look in their eyes you can see they are.
"A living person?" you ask, "like you or me?"
"But if the person is able to live through the 24 hr time period then they get the $10,000"
"But WHO then is your hunt?" you ask still stunned from the hunt.
"Well, how bad do you need ten thousand dollars? Or do any of your friends want to make some money? Actually tommorow will be different from last year's hunt this year the price tag is $20,000 there will be 2 people we hunt. If one makes it out alive that person gets all the money but if noone lives then the hunter gets the money. So how about it?"
Are these people crazy? They expect you to say oh ya sure I'll let you hunt me down and shoot at me, but then again that new car you been looking to buy would be paid for in full.
