College stories

[TheMalcolmConnection]

I graduated and work for a computing firm during the day, but that doesn't prevent me from drinking my share of beer.

Here's a funny NON-college story:

That Monday night of the Redskins/Cowboys game, I went down to my favorite watering hole to have a few beers. Normally, the place is empty on Monday nights so I just sat there talking to a few people I knew.

The more beers went down, the more I realized that every time the Redskins did something good, the more people were cheering (we have a large contingent of Cowboys fans where I live. Sometimes I feel they only like the Cowboys because they are super-rednecks and they think that liking the Cowboys somehow makes THEM cowboys.) Anyway, one thing led to another and all the Redskins fan owned the bar. We were buying pitcher after pitcher.

I don't even remember the end of the game.

I remember calling my brother and getting him to pick me up. On the way home I kept asking them to pull over because throw-up was imminent. It was the night of those hurricanes so the ditches along the side of the road are full of water. I got out of the car and put my hands on my knees and leaned over.

Before I knew it, I was falling forward and into about a 4 foot ditch of raging water. I gashed my arm, and was covered in mud.

I couldn't make it into work the next day and my brother took a picture of me laying in his guest bed covered in mud. I came back in to pick up my car, and lo and behold, it was towed because I parked it overnight in a government employees spot.

Fun times, fun times.
