It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere

1:00 is really early to start drinking.

And if you are at a beer festival, you will be drunk before 5:00

back to the hotel by 7:30

and sleeping by 10.

Yesterday was the Lighthouse Beer Festival in Wilmington.

Me, Danny, Carmen and Mike headed down for a full day of drinking.

We got a hotel, parked the car, and drank many samples of beer.

A sample might seem like nothing,

but when there are 70 breweries...

believe me, you will get drunk.

You will take a lot of pictures

you might will make out with a friend

and if given the chance, someone will buy a Pabst Blue Ribbon hat

After drinking for four straight hours

you will celebrate with empty glasses

and take the mandatory group photo.

Then, you will call a cab (and give way too big of a tip)

You will eat nachos and walk around downtown for the night.

And by night, of course I mean before 7:30. 

But since you have been drinking since 1, you have no concept of time.

By now, the girls are done drinking

but the guys want Patron.

The next day you will find out the guys don't remember this....

or any of these pictures

Now, you will find the guys being kicked out, not allowed in, and trash talking hippies.

This means its time to call a cab, go home, and sleep.

Fast forward to 6AM the following morning someone will wonder why their eye hurts.

Answer: You walked into a wall.

You will have to tell them about the paramedics and cops that might have paid you a visit during the night.

And you might even have to remind them they can't wear their pants home because they peed them.

I'm not saying this happened to us

but just know...

there's a reason you're supposed to wait until 5:00PM to drink!
