An illustrated guide to the Bruins’ $156,679 post Stanley Cup win bar tab - hal - 06-21-2011
http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puck_daddy/post/An-illustrated-guide-to-the-Bruins-156-679-Fox?urn=nhl-wp7657
and the actual bar tab:
I zoomed in and saw that ONE bottle of something cost $100000 and did a little research:
In June 2011 Mark Cuban spent $90,000 on a 15 liter bottle (20 regular sized bottles) of Armand de Brignac in celebration of the the Dallas Mavericks' NBA Championship.[8]. A week later, the Boston Bruins "one-upped" the Mavericks' celebration by purchasing a 30 liter bottle of Ace of Spades "Midas" for $100,000. At the time of the purchases, the Midas bottle was one of six bottles in the world[9].

Some happy bar owners there!
But the Bruins have lousy taste in beer.

I wonder how the workers split the tips? That 18% service change was $18,000 just to serve that one bottle of champagne.

So ONE bottle on that entire list is responsible for approximately 65% of that tab?
That is friggin' INSANE.

It's actually higher than that, closer to 79% when you take into account the service charge (18%) and sales tax (5.4%). Works out to $123,400 for that bottle, and $33,279.74 for everything else.

What really sickens me about that $100000 bottle is that they probably left it 1/2 full...
oh... and this isn;t just ANY bottle:
and remember - the guy drinking it here is 6'9", so the bottle is even bigger than it looks in the pic...

I'm not looking at the bottle.
