Elite Group Chat

Kruger: Bidding starts in five. Get those bets in.

Prism: *money emoji* *bear emoji*

Kruger: P, you can’t bet on Arsen. He’s not up for auction.

Prism: Because he’s mine.

Kruger: Curb the aggression, P. You don’t need to shout.

Arsen: You’re cute when you’re territorial, princess.

Prism: *bear emoji*

Jess: Placing bets on our friends is rude.

Max: $100 on Ryan.

Jamie removed Max from the chat.

Jamie: Betrayal is a punishable offense.

Win added Max to the chat.

Jamie: Scratching you both off my Christmas card list.

Max: Like you send Christmas cards.

Kruger: I’m putting my money on Jamie.

Jamie: Bro! I’m sending you two this year!

Kruger: Because anyone who bids on Ryan will have to deal with Rory.

Jamie: Christmas cards are now canceled.

Rory: I’m not jealous.

Win: $100 on Ryan. Sorry, Jamie, but the last time we were out, three girls asked Ryan for his number.

Rory: WHAT?

Wes: You weren’t supposed to mention that…

Rory: RYAN STEPHEN WALSH

Kruger: See, this is what I’m talking about.

Lars: My money is on Jamie.

Landry: $100 on my dad.

Rush: Women do like the grumpy bearded type. $100 on Coach.

Wes: $100 on Coach

Jamie: I’ll forgive this, Wes, because you obviously have a weak spot for grumpy men.

Wes: *smirk emoji*

Rory: I’m still waiting for an explanation.

Ryan: Baby, they asked. I denied. Told them the only number I knew was yours.

Kruger: Smooth, bro.

Madison: The lights are dimming! It’s going to start.

Madison: My money is on Jamie. *wink emoji*

Jamie: You bros keep your cash. I already won the jackpot.
