Drink Beer In Troy Tomorrow
If you're looking for something to do this weekend from 2pm to 5pm you can go to the River Street Field in Troy and sample some fine beverages.
I went to this event last year and did not drink any beer, I sold T-Shirts and souvenir glasses instead. For some reason people seem to think that they can just take the T-Shirts, you can not do this, in fact if you try to we will chase after you and get our shirt back from you especially if you're already wearing a shirt. If you're not wearing a shirt we may have to think about it for a second but we will get our shirt back if you do not pay for it.
Last year I witnessed something strange and something that I found to be very amusing.
What I found to be strange was the 'Silent Disco.' A bunch of people underneath a tent wearing headphones and dancing, but not disco dancing, underneath a tent. I think what makes it so strange to me is that you can't hear the music but I could see a group of people reacting to music that I could not hear, from my perspective those people looked like a bunch of crazies in a looney bin hopping around mumbling to themselves and it does not help that the tent is white.
What I found amusing was this one drunk girl who was being kind of rowdy, she was doing the usual "hyper drunk girl" things and I watched her poor boyfriend have to babysit her as she ran around being loud and drunk, eventually she slowed down enough to make-out with her boyfriend but not in a modest way, more of a: "Look at me I am sucking face with my man" way. Toward the end of the event she sitting on the ground holding her own head as her boyfriend rubbed her back.
I don't know why but I had to be there for the big finish, I stalked the couple for a little bit but they eventually made their way up the stairs away from where I was and I still had some sticky clean up work to do. Fortunately I saw the two again on the sidewalk as I was getting into my car, her back was to me and her head was down as she gripped the railing and then I saw all the alcohol she had consumed that day splatter onto the sidewalk and begin to pool around her and her boyfriend's feet, I smiled and drove away.
