Pizza on my mind.
Starbusters. DeKalb, IL. Quite possibly one of the dumbest bars I've ever been in. Not the dirtiest, or smallest or least welcoming to rock 'n' roll. Just the dumbest. Lame. Standard. Virtual Bags. Unnecessary.
After the set I found it wholly necessary to wonder off in search of pizza before the Pimps got down to bringing the pain. Luckily for me Huskies Pizza was only a shade south of the bar. I walked over and saw they were in the process of closing even though their closing time was 3:00 a.m. and it was only midnight.
Good spirits were in the air because the gentlemen inside offered me up a slice of pie on the house while they finished cleaning up. I took up a table next to the window and while the manager locked the door. He told me to go ahead and let myself out when I was done because they would be in back.
"HUSKIE PIZZA!!!!"
It came screaming from the edge of the parking lot.
I looked up to see a large (drunk) creature barreling over the 3 foot wall of snow piled at the end of the sidewalk.
"NOOOO!!! HUSKIE!!!!"
He continued to yell while running for the pizza shop. Apparently his hunger sensors were all over the early closing tonight. He knew his time was running short. Then the obvious happened. He hit the ice patch. There was no way he couldn't; it was huge and even I had to carefully glide across it on my journey. His head hit the ground first and his body rolled over itself, but this would not be enough to stop Eater X Jr. Immediately he picked himself up and started sprinting again.
"NO! WAIT FOR ME! NOOO!!! HUSKIES!!!"
He hit the door head on and knocked with a furious panic. The managers were in back and he was out of luck. Too bad. Two minutes earlier he could have earned that other giant slice of free pizza. He slid over to the window in front of me and continued knocking until his eyes locked in on mine.
I put a big smile on my face, tipped my pizza at him and took a big old bite and laughed aloud while I chewed. Physically upset by this gesture, EX Jr. punched the window of Huskies Pizza and stormed off screaming and swearing into the distance.
I finished my meal and headed back just in time for the start of the Pimps.
"That girl looked like the first half of an A&E intervention."
