Was an okay story to tell since I'm bored.
I showed up and took a cab straight from the airport to the stadium about 3 hours early...thinking I could find a restaraunt to eat in first. All they had was Friday's at the Park and you needed a ticket to get in. I didn't have a ticket yet, I was planning on scalping.
Took Rude's advice and wandered around the tailgate party asking for food and beer and reminding them it was my birthday. Ended up hanging out with a guy who owns a bowling alley a few towns over, his wife, 2 of the guys who worked for them and their girlfriends. Probably drank 12 miller lites, ate 2 brats, potato salad, chips, etc. Spent 3 hours out there, got a sunburn. Almost threw up.
Went to the game and towards the end ended up in the bar at the stadium challenging people to the punching bag machine for money. I think I got like a 961 at some point. Bet a dude 100 dollars I could beat him left handed. Lost miserably.
Stumbled out and found my old tailgater friends. Sat with them for another hour and drank while they begged me to come back to their town and hang out for the night and the owner of the bowling alley thought I was the funniest guy he's ever met and begged me to take his daughter out. He was a little drunk but literally told me he had a cute daughter my age and was perfect for her. Offered me a job as a bartender at the bowling alley if I moved to town and married his daugter
I eventually got up to go get a cab to my hotel room because I wanted to go out on the town for the night and he got legitimately pissed that I wouldn't come back and court his daughter and hang out at the bowling alley.
On the way to the cab, some lady offered me some homemade string cheese. I took a bite out of it and she yelled at me because you HAVE TO peel it and eat it, not just take a bite off the top.
Slept in my hotel room for 3 hours. Went downtown to water street and drank until I couldn't see. I have some nigerian cab drivers phone number because he has a "business opportunity" for me and I haven't #### right in 2 days thanks to all that beer.
