It's a San Diego Chargers (and perhaps NFL) tradition. The team's rookie first-rounder is obligated to take the rest of the team out to dinner, and without fail, at this dinner, every monstrous defensive tackle on the team gorges themselves on lobster tails like they haven't eaten in a month. No one's really shy about running up the bill.

Well, that's a bill you don't see everyday, well at least for me that's something I'll never see. Crazy.

If he tipped 15% (which is considered decent) it would of been around 2,300 dollars.

The other famous Chargers rookie dinner came back in 1998, when a young man named Ryan Leaf was expected to take everyone out to dinner. Leaf was, um, reluctant, we'll say ... so Junior Seau(notes) stole his credit card and made it happen anyway. Leaf had a fit, and his bill was only $3,000. I hope everyone enjoyed their Extra Value Meals that night.

Crazy! Bet after they looked at the bill, they were probably like "Damn, we need to make it higher next time." The guy who was their waiter must`ve felt like he was stealing with all he got.

Usually for large groups there is more than just one waiter working haha.

But damn, that is a hell of a lot of money.

Yea but you still have the main waiter and they get the tip, whether they decide to split ot or not is up to them.
