  1. There will be some really happy punters taking home a dinner 🙂

  2. Classic. Do they have somebody who comes in selling little pots of prawns and crab-sticks in the bar as well?

  3. Class act. Love a meat raffle. Don’t know what you’ll go home with but it’ll be meaty

  4. Is this a regular thing in the UK? My relatives have never mentioned it.

  5. That looks more like the top table at Henry VIII banquet… tidy.

  6. man i wish i was one of the old boys who drank down the social on a sunday and socialised, instead i sit on my own watching football.

    Love the concept of a meat raffle, i imagine it was originally for end of the week stock from a local butcher?

  7. Random question, but how much is a raffle ticket? And does your Club end up making some profit left over after the butchers have been paid?

    I have never participated in a meat raffle but it seems a fun idea – imagine winning the ingredients for your Sunday roast dinner!

  8. Oh right.

    I’ve heard the phrase “meat raffle” before.

    Didn’t know it was literally this.

  9. I passed a sign on the road that said “meat bingo every Monday”. Is this what that meant? Bingo where the prize was meat?

    I had a much darker interpretation…ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ

  10. Since moving back to Canada, I so miss meat raffles at our local.

  11. The working mens club I worked at did fur and feathers bingo. It was the most popular one all year.

  12. Being Scottish I’d never heard of a meat raffle until I worked in guernsey, what a great idea

  13. Imagine winning Mushrooms in a meat raffle 💀

    I was once given a couple of nice steaks that an old boy had won in the meat raffle. He was staying at a travel lodge so had no use for them. He didn’t have an explanation for why he’d bought a ticket 😄

  15. Ah they used to do a meat raffle at a club my parents went to.

    Very random what they came home with but one time they hit the jackpot and came back with a few pounds of steak
