Bachelor Party

So this past weekend Elizabeth and I both had our separate bachelor and bachelorete parties.

I dont really know any of her details but I have a good story from mine.

So here it goes....

The night starts off great, my friends decided to all meet up at our new apartment and have a few drinks before we head off to the Texas Rangers Baseball game. We all load up into 2 cars and head down to the game. Since Liz is from Arlington I am the "Arlington expert" so i have the bright idea to park at a wal mart that is about 3/4 mile to the stadium. Liz and I have parked there a few times before to save some money.

So the boys and I start the trek over to the stadium and get to the ticket window to buy tickets. We wait for about 20 mins to get tickets. The guy at the window was acting like the game was almost sold out and we were lucky to get tickets so he sold us some $10 tickets in the upper deck on the complete opposite side of the stadium. So the next forever walk begins. We get to our seats and they are directly in the sun and it was a million degrees. We sat there for ummmm about one min and then we went on the next walk to get better seats that were in the SHADE!!!

....watching baseball.....making fun of our med school friend that had to check an old mans prostate......more baseball............


The game is over and we start the trek back to the car. We leave the stadium and this really attractive girl comes up to me and was like "hey can we buy your tickets" and i say ma'am the game is over.... "she goes well we want tickets to get into the post game concert, how much will you take for them?" me being the master negotiator that i am say ummm like 2 bucks....well she goes ill give you $40 for your 8 tickets and my buddies all say DEAL!!!!!

We are now on cloud 9 heading back to the car and $40 richer to buy some dinner after the game......

We get back to Wal Mart thinking a great night is ahead of us and.............. The cars are gone..... Oh Great!!

We go into walmart and Miss Personality at customer service holds up a piece of paper that has a number on it for the towing company.... we call it and find out that the place is about 2 miles from wal mart....

So the walk to get our cars back begins..... everyone is in such a great mood at this point....


We finally make it to the place and survive the GHETTO!!! We go in and talk to the really classy lady behind the triple thick bulletproof glass that has a sign saying "treat people the way you want to be treated, Nicely" We found out the cost of the towing charge is $244.10 a car...... They really are living by their sign aren't they???.... So after our almost $500 get of tow yard bill....we all want to get the HELL out of Arlington and not spend anymore money in that town. We end up at Whataburger in Grapevine at midnight. which capped off the great night...

At least we have a good story to tell.....

I bet you would of had a even more exciting story to tell if Ronnie had planned your party. I take that back, you probably would of had to keep your mouth shut.
