Barstool After Dark: If you aint 1st...your last.

The fans were clamoring, pleading, & impatiently waiting for the return of Barstool After Dark... well, it is SOOOO BACK! Partnering with DraftKings, we have ourselves a good old-fashioned "last person standing" for a BIG PRIZE! 22 of Barstool's craziest...maybe even neediest characters will all be in one room with only one prize on the line. That's right, stoolies: if you ain't first, you're last.

Ohio's Tate, Lucas, & new committee member Nick Turani were given the keys by DraftKings to come up with a game to promote DK & hand out a $20k free bet & $10k cash in someone's pocket. Now, maybe DraftKings got their signals crossed, as they couldn't have known the diabolical trio they just gave immense power to. The premise said by Tate above has 22 people vying for the cash starting after the Yak on Monday.

Tate & the boys have come up with a dandy. As he said in his video, everyone will have to keep hold of the DraftKings-sponsored vehicle with no access to any electronic device... yes, no way to even tell time. Then every hour comes the "tasks" or "challenges." So, not only can you go out for letting go, but you could be right there with the group for 15 hours and then a challenge knocks you out. One can only imagine how seedy this thing could get as the numbers dwindle.

These challenges must have the contestants on edge... with evidence of what's to come below.

Okay, WE are all here for the banter of who can do this vs. who has no shot, right? That will be where the chat's mind is at... which could influence the results, as Tate & Lucas have said your superchats will be live, loud, & clear for all to hear. Let me have the rhyme! So, with that knowledge & the trio of masterminds behind the curtain, who gets to the top of the list?

I have decided to already cut the rankings down to 11; I just figured it's better for you & me. Now, who gets left off could find themselves there in the end, I just think there are some glaring issues. For instance: Rico, too unpredictable; Dana Beers, too nice & hungry. Others who come to mind are Hannah Montoya, Nicky Smokes, & Annika, who I think will need their phones at some point. All content people we love, and there is nothing against them, it's just going by what we watch... which we love. So, who cracks the top half & why?

11. Spider

$30k could buy a lot of Spongebob gold! Also, he is a very sneaky genius; he knows how to push buttons and, as a former ref, may have a huge insight into the workings of rules & ways to get around them. He is ready to get that gold collection growing!

10. Doitche

Okay, so you gotta be a unique individual if you want to pull this thing off. His previous chirping on After Dark brings in an added element. Most of these top contenders can sit around all day...duhhhh, but he has the subtlety to jab the needle in the right spot. If he finds himself in the right spot near the end, that could be the tipping point to $30k.

9. Mintzy

I mean, he is lava hot, right? Also, just think about how mad not only that office will be, but stoolies everywhere, well just humanity, as he cashes a +500 bet with his $20k free bet. We know it will be live betting against the Cubs or Bears right in the whole Cave's face. We all see it too well!

8. Nate

Okay, Nate to me is the clear dark horse here. For new stoolies, just take a look down Barstool memory lane & soon you will agree with this ranking. Also, $10k cash... is that not the World Series of Poker entry fee??? Hmm...

7. Megan Makin Money

Okay, besides the fact that it's in the freakin' name! She feels ready to mix it up. Even with comments last week about being invited to Vegas, she feels focused in a way that the top dogs may not be able to handle.

6. Katic

The man survived Indiana football before Curt Cignetti. If you can do that without transferring, anything seems within the realm of possibility. He showed in Beach House & Spring Break that he has another gear. Also, a football locker room makes him immune to farts, burps, partial nudity, & so on.

5. Blutman

For Blutman, this feels like an "it's his moment" type shit. BUT! The reason he falls slightly... ball knower. IF others can extend this thing into the 24-plus hour mark, this could be his kryptonite... BALL!

4. Tommy Smokes

Sooooo, I don't know if you are new around here, but this dude just wins! He is a game show wizard, though he still hasn't reached his dream of Survivor. Could he see this as tape to show his abilities for his pinnacle? Watch out for T-Smokes!

3. Klemmer

So, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't this guy already do this... for free?

2. Meek Phil

Meek's temper gets me a tad worried, but what makes him stronger is his internet troll background of finding someone's weakness & going crazy! Pair that with his desire to win and you have a lethal combination.

1. Mikey Bets

The man has a LIST! Oh, & he works for FRANK THE TANK! If those two things don't prepare you for this exact moment, then I'm not sure what could. Between "The List," his Frank-level patience, & a "down for anything" mentality, he has to have the early odds.

Now, of course, you may say: "What about Dante or White Sox Dave?" Both have great chances, but I worry about if they truly want it, & Dante after two weekends in Vegas could be a little drained. Of course, all 22 have a real shot...or so they think, or else they wouldn't be put to the test. While Bet sits at the top of the list, you have to think he is high risk/high reward. Many feel Klemmer would be the lowest risk as he has a past in this format.

What do you think? Who has been snubbed or who isn't high enough? Let me know in the comments!

We have a weekend to wait until Monday...ahh, it feels so far away! The After Dark fans will surely be ready, though, to cheer their favs & mix it up with some of Barstool's best. Ohio Tate, Lucas, & Turani are going to make sure the $30k is earned, you don't have to worry about that. So tune in Monday right after the Yak... they ain't done till it's 22 down to 1.
