He had really awesome stories and we compared notes on places that we really loved in Europe. A few other people that had gone to Europe chimed in the conversation and we come to a consensus that the Bavarian Alps are the prettiest part of the continent.
So, while we’re hanging out, shooting the shit with HA, one of Joe’s tentmates comes by asking if we’d like a tootsie roll pop. Tennessee is following close behind and he says, without missing a beat, “This is the greatest thing that has ever happened in my life.” Apparently he had been walking around since like 7 am with a bottle of vodka in one hand and a container of OJ in the other alternating every sip. This statement propts HA to say, “Well, hot damn, I’ll buy the whole bag. That sucker sounds like it will change your life.” Tennessee also informs us that the TRP is a sucker, but then when that is gone, you get a tootsie roll!!!
So, we decide we’re going to make breakfast (again prioritizing our friend in the hospital). We use the beef dogs and tofurkey dogs that we were going to have for dinner for breakfast. After Dan, Joe and I ate our fill, we offered the remaining dogs to Tennessee. He waffles on eating them, and Dan tells him about 10 times that he can have the rest of them if he wants and he says, “You don’t have to tell me twice.” Totally serious.
At this point, Porsha and our new friend Gnar tell us they are going to the hospital to pick up Brandon. We tell everyone the story, in so much that we know, and HA says, “Damn, you wake up to a raccoon eating your burned hand, that shit will give you nightmares for the rest of your life.” HA rules. So, we decide we’re gonna start packing up stuff and getting ready to leave so that we can get out of here when Brandon gets back from the hospital.
While we’re hanging out at our van, Joe starts recharging his phone so we can try to make contact with Brandon. We have a group of people start coming by to ask about our drummer, to tell us about how much fun they had with us last night, just to shoot the shit. HA comes over and hangs out with us for a little while. While he is there, Wes Taylor comes up and tells us that Porhsa just called. Brandon had been transferred to Wake Forest and has already been discharged. We also won the costume contest and $50. So, we had to wait for her to get back to pay us.
