‘Cause we all have that kind of money lying around.
In remembrance of the 100th anniversary of the Titanic’s abrupt meeting with the bottom of the Atlantic (on April 15th), a Houston-based restaurant called Cullen’s is recreating the meal from the ship’s last night above sea level.
The event, called the “Titanic Experience,” involves a 10-course dinner (that seems like seven courses too many) served in Macy’s Table, which, apparently, is a room suspended from the ceiling of the restaurant. Guests are also given the chance to sample a bottle of Armagnac brandy from 1900, because it’s just…necessary, I guess?
Luckily, you can invite 11 other people to your dinner, so each person can pay a nice, even $1,000 for a single, yet absurdly large meal. Cost effective planning, Cullen’s.
No word on whether or not anyone has actually bought the dinner yet, but I want to meet the person who does. They must be a special breed of person. (via Jezebel)
Would you ever spend a load of money on special occasion? Or are you always thrifty when it comes to your celebrations?

I would not spend that kind of money for that reason. BUT I would like to join the “titanic experience” The money issue is totally rediculous the economy sucks anyway why would people spend this much?
guest
You know, as absurd as it seems…if I had the money, i think I totally would!
guest
If I was ridiculously rich, then heck yeah I would do it!
guest
Does it come with that sinking feeling too? I mean, after you spent all that money.

@jaimecaitlyn@xanga - ’cause they’re rich and the recession hasn’t affected them at all, lol.
guest
@daydreams_nightmares – Lol! Very true

This “experience” is meant for individuals who have a similar socio-economic status as the people who had the original dinner. So yeah. The people were rich, so the experience will be had by current rich people.
