Bounties, an interesting wrinkle to an interesting sport

Lately I've been on a roll in my bracket car and I've won a couple outlaw 6.00 index races in a row. One at Rockingham, Shadyside, and this past weekend at Mooresville (low car count but two rounds of buy backs had it go 5 rounds). I'm going through nitrous like it's going out of style at the moment. I've had so much luck in it recently that an acquaintance and fellow die-hard index racer decided to put up $100 to anyone who eliminated me from the race. I thought it was fun and have no objection. My question is: How would you all react to something like this? Has anyone ever had a bounty on them? And do you think I should have earned the bounty myself by failing to lose?

I hope this doesn't come off as chest-beating, I just thought it was fun and would love to hear other's thoughts.

(I can move this to another thread given it's not STK/SS related but I wanted to put it where it'd get more traffic)

Be proud of those bounty times, 40 years ago plus in my bracket racing days my tree prowess earned a few that had that target planted on my back, and these days I am working my tukus off attempting to get back to those not so simple tree stealing abilities! Be honored some recognize the talent, luck, and abilities brother!

We need more, not less of that.
