A receipt from Ibiza night club 'Cabaret' has been attributed to Barcelona star Lionel Messi after photos of he and a bartender at the club in question surfaced online.
A Messi fan account posted the picture of a receipt totaling a staggering €37330, the night after Messi was spotted partying at the location along with teammate Luis Suarez and former teammate Cesc Fabregas.

Skeptical to say the least, but as a Google Image reverse search suggested there are no earlier copies of the photo online, so it appears to be new.
So let's take a closer look.
Whoever it was had one hell of a session.
41 bottles of Dom Perignon champagne, 27 pizzas, and €10 bottles of water to stay hydrated. Good grief.

While the image has gone viral on social media, nobody as of yet has debunked it, and Messi was photographed with Suarez and Fabregas at the location last night, so it's possible, and we would love to believe that the Barca star treated the whole club to pizza and champagne.
We just can't get our head around six people ordering 27 pizzas. Actually, he almost certainly wasn't there without security, but then what about the 41 bottles on Dom P!?
It's a crazy amount. €37,000 is a healthy annual salary in most parts of the world, but considering how much Messi makes he could easily afford to drop that on a night out.
After tax, that is, which hopefully was not an issue this time.
