Friday Fury

Friday (1/23) started off with frisbee practice at 10am, ugh. After practice I went back and showered up and did some laundry. My afternoon consisted of making some lunch and doing homework. Around 6pm I went down to Trev to hang out with Zoe until her shift ended and to meet up with the group who would be attending Friday Fury with us.

Friday Fury is an event that happens a few times every term. The idea of it is that at 8pm you go around to all the bars on campus and get a drink at each one. When you get a drink at one of the bars you also get some sort of trinket to indicate that you've been there. Then, after collecting the trinkets you catch a bus into town and go to the Sugarhouse where you get free entry. The deal is that you need at least 3 trinkets to get free entry before 11pm and 4 if after midnight.

We started our quest at Trev as you would have guessed. After Trev we decided to go to the nearest bar which was Fylde, which I hadn't been to since my first week. At Fylde we waited for about 20 minutes to get a drink and then sat down to enjoy it. Here are a few pics:

After Fylde we decided to head up north along the Spine to Bowland. When we got to the Bowland bar it was packed so we went to County which was the next closest bar. County wasn't nearly as packed so we got right to the bar. Much to our dissappointment they had run out of the armbands, but we got a drink anyways. After finishing our drinks we went back to Bowland and worked our way into the crowd in line for the bar. When we got close to the bar we discovered that they too had just run out of armbands only seconds ago. We were pretty annoyed by this because we had now been to 4 bars and only had 2 armbands to show for it which wouldn't get us free entry to the Sugarhouse. We went back to Trevor to regroup and formulate a plan. After a few minutes we decided to just forget about the armbands and go to Sugarhouse and pay to get in instead of wasting a bunch more time heading all the way down to the southwest part of campus. Before heading to Sugarhouse we bought a few bottles of wine from Trevor and downed them in no time. Here is a picture of our group:


The usual suspects plus a group of random girls who were walking by at the time.

With our level of drunkenness improved by the wine we headed out in mass to the underpass to catch a bus into town.
