Wine Hazard

The title of today's post kind of sounds like something you would try to avoid on a golf course,but it actually occurred in an Atlantic City,NJ casino. A man and his business associates were ordering dinner and he asked the waitress if she could suggest a bottle of wine to go with dinner,she pointed to a bottle on the menu (the man didn't have his glasses,and they say women are vain?),he asked her how much and she said thirty-seven fifty,he said that would be fine...until the four figure bill came! The waitress had meant $3,750 not $37.50 as the man had assumed. After disputing the charges the restaurant eventually lowered the wine's price to $2,200. I think he would have been better off playing the slot machines! In case anyone is wondering the bottle of wine was Screaming Eagle,Oakville,2011.
