Credit Card Roulette is a game of chance where every party involved contributes their own credit[1] or debit card into a hat or billfold. The waitress or waiter will choose at random the card which will pay the entire bill.[2][3][4] A second version of the game is played where the waiter or waitress pulls one card at a time and the last card picked pays the bill. (Known as the “Carter Fireball”) [5][6] Some groups may take the losers from previous meals that day out of contention for later that evening's game of chance. Exemptions are not accepted outside the 24-hour statute of limitation grace period.
History[edit]
Although the game's origins are unknown, it has increased in popularity within the last 20 years.[citation needed] Some believe it was started by Matt Formica, a longtime risk averse gambler,[7] who would put in five or six of his own credit cards, one of which was canceled, and offer the waiter a very large tip if he picked one of the cards that 'worked'. However, if he picked the canceled card the meal was free. A society column article about Jerry's game ran in the Morning Herald in Uniontown, Pennsylvania on June 8, 1960.[7]
