Memphis

So I went to Memphis for my friend Connolly's bachelor party. I can't squeeze it all in here, but I'll get the highlights.

Thursday night I picked up my buddy Barth and we headed to the Ontario airport because the tickets were cheap. We drove around looking for a liquor store that was open to get some for the plane ride. It's a sad day when all the liquor stores are closed in Ontario, CA. We figured everyone had cut out early to do meth.

We went to Del Taco (Barth's favorite) for chicken tacos because barth had a coupon. The value meal came with meth.

we went to the airport, which closed, so Barth and I left, got two 24 oz. BL's, and much to our excitement, the circle K sold liquor. And meth.

We drank the beers in the airport parking lot, then slept in the car until 4 am (a total of 3 hrs). We got on the plane and took a xanax.

We met another friend, Tank Top Todd, at the airport, got a cab and our driver was "Old Man Memphis" he told us all about some bad smelling harmonica player who couldn't read. I think it was secretly about him.

Bam - Memphis. Dropped off our bags, went to Beale street, got $5 32 oz beers, watched two black guys play guitar in an alley, and ate bbq. awesome awesome bbq. we hung out there for entirely too long, met up with the rest of our 20 person crew, and went to music fest. Front row for The Cult, All American Rejects, and also saw Steve Miller Band, got a t shirt for doing 19 pull-ups, ... I think there were more bands.

back to Beale. Went to some bars. blacked out here. Me and Barth got kicked off the dance floor for some reason. but I recall the underage girl I was dancing with said i was a good dancer.

according to pictures we were the sole people on Beale during torrential downpours. everyone hid in the bars while it rained. I like rain. we had a fake shootout, and despite my drunken state, I was told I won. Got lost, a homeless guy walked me home. slept for 3 hours and then we had Saturday.
