I’m not very good at using Vine regularly but occasionally I have it in me to make something worthwhile. (One of my favorites remains the time that Big Gulp went to Baltimore and Dave had some fun scaring Sara.) Well this past weekend I was out for my friend Ryan‘s bachelor party at Foxwoods Resort & Casino. One of the highlights was when our friend Jarrod decided to bet $100 on black in roulette…and lost. He then went around playing craps and casino war, winning his $100 back, betting it on black again…and losing.

I was able to take out my phone quickly enough to get a pretty good summary of the action in 6 seconds. The moment of placing the bet and the ensuing sadness are captured thanks to a well-timed jump in the action (make sure the video is unmuted for maximum enjoyment):

I also find it funnier with each loop. Good call, Vine.
