I’m in San Pedro on Ambergris Caye in Belize. I heard about an interesting activity that they do on Thursday nights at Wahoo’s Lounge called Chicken Drop. At first I thought, why in the world would you drop a chicken?  It turns out the dropping is different from what I expected. <\/p>\n

Before the chickens arrive you can spent one dollar to place a bet on a numbered square. A single chicken is then put into the arena and we all wait for it to poop on the floor. If it poops on your number then you win $100 (most likely as a bar tap). <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If the chicken does not feel like relieving itself then a backup chicken is called for, and so forth until there is a winner. There is a whole ritual around it where you shake the chicken first or blow on its behind. Apparently this helps!<\/div>\n

If you are in San Pedro on a Thursday then you should check it out. <\/div>\n
