Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
That was my initial thought when I saw that post. I know where I can find them.. but I don't want to be the only 29 year old drinking with a bunch of 20 year olds on a college campus
There are always townies who come just to see the bands and sit away from the stage, it wouldn't be weird at all. But obviously it's not like that everywhere. This Wednesday some drunk-ass lady who was probably in her 40's worked her way up the stage close to me and threw her empty beer cup right at the singer as he was singing and got kicked out so fast. The singer just laughed and kept going, it was fucking hilarious how inebriated she was and trying to argue it wasn't her fault as she was being pulled away. But maybe she was just in town for homecoming and not a crazy townie, I don't know. The point is YOU could be that crazy lady and be a hit with the kids!

Bands? Our nickel nights don't even have a live DJ. They were always like 7-9 on a Wednesday.

Well, the "college town" I frequent would be the OSU campus part of downtown Columbus. I have places for very cheap beer, but 15 cent beer night is nonexistent, to my knowledge. I'm willing to start the trend tho. I could be that person.

Notice the use of the word only. She is fine with making this happen as long as she has a wingman/woman
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

Pick me! Pick me!!
I am 232983ish.
I would be HONORED to have you as my wing woman. I could only imagine what that night would be like. What we would be wearing. What inappropriate things we would be saying/doing. You and I (and wine) together...

Is there a limit to how many you can buy at once? Can i plunk down 15 bucks and say: "100, please."
The first time I ever got drunk, I was at an Indian cafe and asked for a six-pack, meaning to go. You should have seen my face when the guy cracked all six at once. What a fun lunch that was!
This concept of 15 cent beer confuses me. Beer usually costs much more than that. Is it realy bad beer? Or do they give you like a teaspoon.
What about tipping? Is 3 cents the usual tip (20%). Or if the server's really cute do you leave the whole nickel?

Some nights there's a five dollar cover to get into the bar, some they put a free "pass" if you get a the bar before 10pm on twitter/facebook. A lot of the time if everyone in my group isn't ready to go/not back from class/whatever some will just get stamps and walk home or something, but if there's nothing else to do we'll just sit and get drunk there. The main reason for not always staying right after we get there is because the music doesn't start until 11pm so you're kinda just standing around waiting (you don't exactly have to camp out more than even 5 minutes to get a spot by the stage, it takes a couple minutes for everyone in the bar to walk over there after they start too.)
The beer rotates between coors/miller most nights, but recently they've had bud light too. The cups are probably a little less than an actual serving a beer, maybe 10 ounces if I had to guess. Tipping is a different story. I like to give a decent night's tip to one bartender at the beginning and then go back with exact change the next couple of times I go up. Some people don't tip and say it should be expected on these cheap nights, and some get multiple beers and then leave a dollar every time. As far as I know there isn't a limit on how many beers you can get. I've never ordered more than 8 at a time, but I've seen people get like 10 or some other large quantity and then just set them down on the stage and post up there all night (while having people save their spots for restrooms breaks of course).

I've been to the bars in Columbus after one of my buddies got free tickets to a blue jackets game, we just drove over to Ohio and stayed with his cousins. They were actually pretty fun, but I still prefer my Bloomington bars

I used to work at a bar that had one of those nights. Most people only put a dollar or two for a bunch of beers. I'd say only 1/4-1/3 tip anywhere close to appropriate. Neither that bar, or any other that I went to in college ever actually expected the penny, the nickel (insert whatever the deal amount is here). It was always just 10 dollar cover or whatever and then tips only for the next 2-3 hours.

I've never been at a bar where beers were under a dollar. In college, there was a dive downtown that had PBR drafts for $1.50. I've seen a few bars that had Schlitz or something similarly super-hipster/townie for $1 a can.
And at first, I didn't quite understand what a Tennessee two-for-four special was. Ordered a Sweetwater 420, got handed two of them, and spent the next five minutes wondering why I got two at the same time. (Having two drinks at the same time is illegal in Mass. (as is Happy Hour, one of the shittier things about this state.))
I always wanna post in this thread when I'm drunk but then I get food and forget....regardless, Wednesdays are the best night to go out. I'm not looking forward to real adult life when this isn't an option =(
Hear me out, best idea for a late night act: disney singalong. Just get a band and singers to sing all the disney classics like trashing the camp from tarzan and hankuna matata and it'll be the best concert ever. Just get a band to play all the background music and different singers to come out for every song and it'll be the best singalong ever. Maybe I'm just mad Elton didn't sing any Lion King songs when he played but I wanna hear some disney jams! I'd wait for an unreasonable amount of time for this concert. If Let It Go came on I'd probably cream my pants and be happy the rest of my life. Once again, fuck adult life and I wish I could be in college as long as possible oh well. Cheap drinks while I can get em =/

Wait til you have a kid. You will be singing a different tune. If I hear let it go one more time I may quaking lose it.

Uh oh, sounds like you wouldn't like my idea for a "Shake it off" superjam =) and you're saying this to the guy who fell asleep watching the Lion King almost three times a week my freshmen year and skips every talking part in Frozen just to get to the songs. At this stage in my life I think I'll be okay watching those kid movies if I'm lucky enough to have children, but obviously that could change. But for real since it seems like not a lot of people comment in this thread compared to the others and there's definitely still alcohol in my system, I'm comfortable saying I'd be front row in the pit for both Beyonce and Taylor Swift. As long as I can make it to my disney superjam of course!
This is more hungover rambling than drunk rambling...
I went to McDonald's drive-thru this morning as that is a big part of curing hangovers for me. Ordered my food. Went to the first window and paid. I received my receipt and card back and then drove straight through the 2nd window and turned on to the street. Forgot window #2 and my food. Too embarrassed to go back. I'm a fucking moron.
Well, free food for someone else! But you should've went back man, that blows.

TURN YOUR ASS AROUND AND GET YOUR FOOD! That is just a waste of money. Damn your pride!
