In the wonderful land of Minnesota, I am crowned King of the Meat Raffle (more on that story later). You are most likely asking, "What is a Meat Raffle?" It is exactly what it sounds like, raffling off meat.
In the great state of Minnesota (and also Wisconsin (remember, moving to Wisconsin is closer to me than staying in your rotting meat state), which is next to Minnesota for those who are poor with geography) we know how to have a good time when at a bar, pub, or out to grab a bite to eat. Apparently we raffle off meat at the same time to increase the amount of good times had by all. I know this idea seems hard to grasp, so I will walk everybody through it.
My story. We only had $1, we played it in the first round, our number was called, we won. I guess the story seems simple, but think about the wonderful imagery above, describing the raffle, and then reread my story. It should sound better.
I know my vegetarian and vegan friends may be disgusted by the thought of a meat raffle. To remedy that, I invite you to move to Minnesota and we can throw an awesome farmers market raffle (yes we have those) or some other non-meat food raffle.
What for charity super good times watching a wheel spin calling out a number to inform you that you won a prize of more meat than you know what to do with event does your rancid meat city have to offer?

- Some person unveils a table full of meat (everybody is in awe at this point).
- The host(s) informs everybody what charity, athletic booster, school program they are raising money for (giving money to good causes and possibly getting free meat for it is a good thing).
- The host(s) then walk table to table and stool to stool asking if people want to buy any meat raffle ticket for just $1 a piece (when they ask, there is this understanding that everybody wants to play. Why wouldn't you want to play? And guess what, you feel the same way).
- You buy a ticket, or possibly more. However, there will be multiple games, so pick your favorite method (I chose the single ticket, mainly because we only had $1).
- After they sell all the tickets they have for the current round, they spin the magic meat raffle wheel (it has numbers on it that should correspond to your ticket if you are the winner and you know how to read integers).
- You check to see if you won. If you lose, try again with the next round (Cyclical excitement).
- If you win, you walk up to a table with a ton of meat on it and pick your cut/package and they put it back in the freezer/fridge with your name on it to pick up before you leave (you now successfully conquered the meat raffle).
