Laura almost spent twenty five hundred dollars wine bidding on a Josh Allen jersey. Mark bought a thirty five hundred dollar banjo drunk at happy hour twenty five years ago and woke up with it in his bed. Bill almost spent five grand on a bottle of whiskey at a charity aucti…","meta_description":"Three quarters of the table went to see Teddy Swims at CMAC. Kevin did not get hungover.
