Day 2: Saturday October 2nd

Up and at 'em boys....time to skate!

Zodiac13: After a giant hassle of herding everyone together around noon, we make it out onto the streets again. (Please note: Gusto is walking around town at this point with a rocks glass full of Budweiser on ice. PLUS, he is wearing a surgical mask he found in the parking garage! Bonus points awarded!)

ShackleMeNot: We woke up around 10:30 am and gathered ourselves in the hotel lobby. Gusto showed up with a rocks glass full of Bud Light on ice, and proceeded to drink it while walking down the main streets of downtown Nashville at 11am. This scared me a bit, but I still found it hysterical.

The Green Monkey: I was too hungover to really skate on Saturday. It was a very long waking up process. I didn't really feel like much other than a nap until about 5:30 in the evening. Gus wore the surgical mask around in the grocery store. Patrons scattered. There is a magazine called Southern Black Woman. I did not pick up a copy, because there was a Southern Black Woman in line behind me, and I didn't want to cause an incident.

Zodaic13: We take Lush's advice and eat lunch at Piranah's, The place with the fries in the sandwich. While it was good. It certainly wasn't "The greatest sandwich I've ever had in my life". We listen to Foghat, Sabbath, Blackfoot & Styx on the jukebox. Nice. Little John sleeps in a booth, alone. This will not be the last occurance of Little John distancing himself from the mayhem. Everyone goes to the hotel and shits. We go to the park.

ShackleMeNot: We made our way over to Pirhana's, I believe it was Lush702 who recommended it to us. Tom had a great time with the jukebox playing Black Sabbath and the like, and I was drooling over the waitress, a gorgeous blond girl with a lovely ass. I ordered an italian sausage sandwich with no slaw. It came with the fries on the sandwich, interesting twist, and was delicious

The Green Monkey: I do not blame the sandwich from Pirhana's for any of the poop issues, because it was just too damn good. I don't know if Zodiac's table just got a bunk bunch of sandwiches or what, but mine was absolutely delicious. I had the good sense to order the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, served on sourdough with vinegar cole slaw, fries, and melted Provolone all crammed in there as well. Zod had the Philly ceesesteak, which is his fault. The cheesesteak sandwich should not have fries or slaw on it, nor should it be served on sourdough, etc. He knew better...
