Basically every round you buy tickets and during the round, the host spins a giant wheel, and if it lands on your number you win meat!

Most times draft beer and wine is included in your ticket and you are encouraged to bring your own food like pizza or party trays. If you aren't going with a group of people this is a great way to meat "pun intended" new people in the area.

Also if you plan on going, get ready to hoot and holler and have a good time. Plus make sure you bring a cooler just in case you are a big winner and you will be taking lots of meat home with you.

Most times these events also have 50/50 raffles and auctions so bring extra money. You may also want to make sure you have plenty of singles to buy tickets for each and every round.
