When your team gets off to one of the best starts in recent franchise history, there's only one way to celebrate: run up a giant bill at a fancy restaurant and then make the rookies pay for it.

The Dallas Cowboys held their annual rookie dinner this week, and apparently, everyone made sure to show up as hungry as possible because the team managed to rack up a $55,000 check at a steakhouse in Dallas. We know how big the bill was because Cowboys defensive tackle Tyrone Crawford shared a picture of the check on Snapchat.

So who got stuck with the bill?

Safety Barry Church told Mike Fisher of 105.3 the Fan, a CBS Sports Radio station, that the rookies honored tradition and took care of everything.

"The whole team was there, and it was amazing,'' Church said. "The rookies took care of everything. We had an amazing time."

Rookie like Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott were probably more than happy to chip in on the check.

On the other hand, maybe the rookies didn't take care of everything: Wide receiver Dez Bryant claims that everyone paid their own bill.

"As far as I know, lots of the guys just paid for themselves," Bryant said. "Nobody getting punished. Everybody together."

Of course, Bryant might have just said that because he doesn't really believe in hazing. In what might've been the most famous rookie dinner of all time, Bryant got stuck with a $55,000 check after a rookie dinner in 2010, and he still seems kind of bitter about it. This time around, the check was split a little more fairly, with every rookie splitting the bill, instead of just one, which is what happened to Bryant.

Anyway, as expensive as the bill was, it sounds like it was less than Crawford thought it was going to be.

'To create different bonds within our team -- amazing. Then the bill came: $55K. Not too bad," Crawford told Fisher.

The Cowboys' rookie dinner might end up being bad news for the rest of the NFL, because it sounds like this team is building more and more camaraderie every week.

Church said that there were more players at Monday's dinner than there's ever been in his Cowboys career, which dates back to 2010.

"Never before had all the offensive guys and all the defensive guys together at the same rookie dinner," Church said.

The guest list at the dinner included both Tony Romo and Prescott, and let's just say that no one in Dallas seems to care about any possible QB controversy. As Fisher noted this week, everyone in Dallas seems to be getting along. Romo even invited Prescott out for a brief after-party following the dinner.
