In this video, we explore the story of how ex-Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar bet each member of Metallica $100 that their fourth studio album, …And Justice for All, would go platinum. The album ended up being a massive hit, debuting at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and going platinum nine weeks after its release. However, according to Hagar, only two members of the band have paid up on the bet.

James Hetfield isnt paying because he already knew it was happening, Sammy wasnt part of it
I saw that tour at the cottonbowl
Yeah, they owe me too for buying Saint Anger. I still SMH at that purchase.
So Funny… Love that 'Hetfield Toy'…
Best band in that photo was and is the Scorpions….change my mind.
AS it turned out And Justice was the last good record they put out.
Don't be a loser. Don't ask people to subscribe, we'll do it if we want.
I went to that Monsters of Rock concert at Alpine Valley, Troy WI. Awesome concert
Joe Biden owes me money.
Metallica never paid Dave Mustainne for first album.
😂
That sucks.
I want a miniature Hatfield singing yeah yeah. Where did you get that?
First thing out of this guy's mouth was, "The Great Sammy Hagar….". That alone already shattered your credibility & integrity as a resourceful & respectable music news journalist. Introducing Hagar's name like that Immediately had me rolling my eyes back & left me with a negative smirk on my face. I'm thinking, "Settle down there pal, he ain't that great! 🤣😂😬.
– especially if he's trying to collect a measly $100 cut of the money that an album that goes platinum brings. "Yo James man, can I get a couple o' Benjamin's, buddy?💵 You know, for old times sake! Please???"
— James: What?!? I don't remember any bet like that! Besides, you said the bet was for $100, not $200.
–Sammy: Well, I don't know WHAT happened to Jason, but him & his career are gone now, nobody is ever gonna see HIM again! & I figured, since YOU kicked him out, well you'd cover his debt to me for him, right?
–James: HIS debt?!? No way dude, Jason QUIT man! At least that's what Lars told me… Go ask Lars why he's not in the band anymore. Maybe HE will give you some money. Get out of my face, loser!I ain't paying you shit!
–Sammy: Unt-uh… Do you know what Lars made me do for the first $100 he gave me? ….Ugh! Just forget it then…😭
These comments are either shockingly negative or random
Poor Dokken
This was actually prior to the Justice album being released
What didn't happen or go down during the monsters of rock in 88 XD to this day metallica is still banned from playing at the colosseum.
garage days tour…..they were still mixing justice during monsters of rock
Shit, Metallica owes me money. 😂
Wrong!!! They were not on the And Justice tour. It was after the Mater of Puppets tour, but AJFA wasn't out. During their set on the Monsters of Rock tour Metallica played a new song which was Harvester of Sorrow. But again AJFA was not even out yet.
I hope Sammy gets the money sevenfold Menifee doesn't want it I hope he gives it to the poor
One of my first shows. Monsters of rock tour in Maine.
Metallica were my favorite band in the 80s before the rest of the world discovered them and they started playing radio friendly commercial music, never would have thought that band would go mainstream in a million years.
The next time Sammy sees Cliff Burton, he will have no need for money.
Metallica was on their Master of Puppets tour
Whew! Jason dodged a bullet on that one.
Metallica owes me money as well. $100,000! Really they do. Money grab U.S.A.
Black album was not close to there best work
I thought Sammy was dead???
Dokken had to follow Metallica? Ouch.
I saw that tour in Seattle at the Kingdom.
The tour was big but Metallica was already on their way to Platinum even without that tour. Every Metal head back then loved Metallica & they got bigger with every album.
Leave it to Sammy to bring up money every 2 mins
James better PAY! AH YEAH YEAH!!!
How the hell did metallica end up opening for dokken?? Gotta love the 80s
Just send sammy a couple bottles of blackened. He'll love that.
Sammy Hagar just trying to get relevant again
Every time Hagar opens his mouth these days…I respect him less & less.
STFU Sam.
All the selloutica crap I had was given to me….otherwise I'd want a rebate and they'd owe me money too!!
OMG…the JH figurine….need one!! Yah yah!
I'm guessing a lot of Metallica fans think Metallica owe them money for everything they bought after Justice.
Metallica sucks asssssssss
I have the same James Hetfield statue.
