900 DOLLAHHSS!!

We went out the other night with katie and Eric for a couple cof drinks and ended up doing a mini-bar crawl! We went into this super-local bar in our town that I have never been to and ordered a beer. The place was just sketchy enough that Rob and Eric decided to play a couple of rounds of Keno (for those of you who aren't familiar with Keno it is a state lottery game that only the real dive bars offer). So, Rob had me pick some of the numbers. He picked 6 and I picked 10,12,59,63. Well, on the 3rd game we hit all 5 numbers . $900 later, we walked out of the bar with our tail between our legs as the locals were not real thrilled with us. You have to understand that these people probably sit in that bar ever night playing this dumb game and then here come these new "kids" who sit down and win big after being there for only 20 minutes. I guess I can understand their frustration.
So, we celebrated with scorpion bowls at the local chinese food place and then went home only to wake up with terrible hangovers. A word of advice...don't drink scorpion bowls. But if you must, don't drink them after consuming beers. "Beer before liquor, never sicker"
Beacuse our winnings were over $600 we had to go up to Boston to "cash-in". We went up to the Natick mall yesterday and received a check for a little less than $900 (damn taxes). Then we went to The Cheesecake Factory for our celebratory dinner. Too Fun!!
