The Doubleheader

The morning started out with breakfast at the hotel and some lounging out by the pool. Brian noted that he had not waited 30 minutes before swimming. We headed back to Scottsdale for the Brewers versus Giants game.

Following the night game, we went to Dos Gringos, a packed bar with tacos and a trailer park atmosphere. On the walk in, we saw a group of people getting arrested for underaged drinking in a car and also a police officer searching for a gun. We were quite tired from the doubleheader. The following exchange occured inside Don Gringos, while a guy started to make fun of a decent looking girl:

Us: "Boooooo"
The Dude: "Why are you guys Boo-ing me?"
Us: "Boooo"
The Dude: "You don't understand."
Us: "Boooo"
The Dude: "Someone had to say something to her."
Us: "Boooo"
The Dude: "You would have done the same."
Us: "Boooo"

The girl thanked us, and just as we thought we had game, she and her friends left. We had some tacos and beers and then went back to the Big Bang piano bar. Once we arrived there, Bill called Mike and let him know that he had arrived. Mike went to the airport and picked Bill up. During this time, a humorous encounter occurred.

Mark had found some beads and was wearing them. A girl came up and asked for them. Mark didn't really care about the beads and was ready to give them away when the girl said "I'm not going to show you my boobs." Mark gave up the beads anyways. The girl's sister-in-law then informed Mark that this girl was married. Mark didn't really care since all he did was hand over the beads. About ten minutes later, the husband walks down and notices the beads. He immediately asks his wife if she showed her boobs to get the beads. She denied it, but he didn't believe her. So the girl finds Mark and asks "Did I show you my boobs?" In constant search of humor, Mark falsely answered the question "Yes! I wouldn't have given you the beads otherwise." So sure enough, the husband gets upset and their party leaves within five minutes.
