Seahawks Rookie Byron Murphy II Pranked With $155K Dinner Bill

The rookie defensive tackle was relieved to learn the real tab for the team dinner was $38,000, not the six-figure sum his teammates initially presented him with.

Seattle Seahawks rookie Byron Murphy II was the target of a prank during the team's traditional rookie dinner, where he was handed a fake $155,000 bill.
The prank occurred at Ascend Steak & Sushi, where teammates ordered high-end items like Wagyu beef, caviar, and expensive cognac to sell the joke.
The real bill for the meal was $38,015.82, a steep but significantly lower amount than the fabricated six-figure total.
Murphy, who signed a four-year, $16 million contract with the Seahawks, was able to cover the cost but reportedly looked shocked when first shown the fake receipt.
The prank video went viral on social media, drawing mixed reactions from fans, with some criticizing the extravagant spending and others calling it a lighthearted initiation tradition.
