Fort Atkinson Pub Crawl/Ugly Sweater Party
So Tom & Lisa invited me out for the annual Pub Crawl and decided to do an ugly fall sweater theme this year. It was a ton of fun. Tom & I went to school together from Kindergarten through graduation, Zach is Tom's best friend and I've known him since my freshman year (plus he was my scuba instructor), and then there was 3 other people I went to highschool with plus coworkers and significant others, so we had a group of around 15-20 people. We ended up going to 8 bars before stumbling back to Tom's house and passing out on any available couches or beds.
Highlights included Steve cutting the sleeves off his sweater and then they turned into leg warmers for the girls, then into hats at some point which I wore the rest of the night. I decided it looked like a horn on my head so I continued to scream 'I am the narwhale' the rest of the night and headbutted people. At one point Steve went to one bar while Amber (his wife) went to the next bar with the rest of us and she kept trying to get him to join us, so somehow at some point a photo was taken of her with her leg up on a bumper pool table and me behind her with an orgasmic look on my face like we were going at it. In typical Steve fashion he still stayed at the other bar. There was a blur as Erik was getting a piggy-back ride from Rein down the sidewalk. Rein is not a big guy, Erik is tall and thin. So when Tom, who is over 6' tall and a pretty big guy came barreling out and jumped on Rein's back they both hit the ground like sacks of potatoes. Sadly, I didn't get a photo of this but it was hilarious.
After we survived the night, the next morning we woke up to Tom wretching his guts out. He still claims it was food poisoning despite the fact that nobody else got sick. It must have been the chex mix at the 5th bar...yea that's the ticket.
Steve gets his sleeves cut.
We discuss important matters like global economic trade theory.
Lisa (Tom's wife) tries on the hat.
Rein tries to drink *through* the hat.
Amber (Steve's wife) confuses Lisa's leg for an air guitar during a karaoke cover of Journey by Derrick.
This is either 2 people confusing her legs for air guitars at the same time, or she's birthing.
This is about when we realized she might need an intervention.
Myself, Steve, and Tom, three of the Arrowhead grads in attendance discuss the glory days.
I finally don the hat at bar #3 and the tradition continues for the next 5 bars. Zach looks on like a possessed demon in the background.
Sadly, the more drunk we got the less photos we took.
