Day 2: Saturday October 2nd

An Army has to Eat....dinner time!

LetsGoSkatePool: After getting in trouble for drinking at the park, the drunks (AC, Gus, TGM, and others) decided it was time to go get food. Mike got into the jeep with me and we caravanned to the hotel. After everyone except me had 2 or 3 more rounds of poison, we hit the street. Gusto was harassing me in the elevator and in the hotel, from crude comments to rib crushing hugs, but I guess that kept things interesting. Gusto took a piss next to a car parked next to the sidewalk.
Amorone: The second "best" Gusto piss story was when Gusto pissed while others were in the convenience store. He was up hill a bit so the stream ran down towards the corner. People were jumping out of the way. Green Monkey and I were discussing chaos theory in the way the piss stream chose it's running path. Upon finishing, Gusto topped it off by spitting on the ground. At that point, a homeless panhandling woman nearby berated Gusto and said "I saw you! I saw you! You pee'd and spit right there! I saw you!" Gusto quickly used his Jedi mind trick powers and began to accuse the woman of pissing there..."No, I saw you! That's your pee-pee! I saw you!" The lady had a t-shirt on that read "Corey's Mom" on the back. Gusto seized this too...."I'm telling Corey! I 'm telling Corey his mom pee's in the street!!!". It was quite the moment to say the least.
Zodiac13: Gusto purchases a cowboy hat. Lookin' good. Allright, someone help me out here. How did the two youngest & most sober guys get sidetracked by Gusto on the random hat adventure? Was it just me, or did anyone else find this highly amusing?
LetsGoSkatePool: Gusto and ShackleMeNot left the group to go find and buy a cowboy hat. Then everyone went to this Mexican restaurant except for me, ShackleMeNot and Gusto. We went to the San Antonio grill for burgers. Gusto told us how NOT to live our lives. We went to the Mexican restaurant to find everyone was still eating, and Gusto began throwing chips at Jeff (AC).
The Green Monkey: I want American!!! (*imitating Seth C)
Amorone: hahahaha ...but no one will quite appreciate it until they hear TGM doing it in person.
Gusto : Y'all are fuckin' fake Cambodians!! (screamed down the sidewalk to some Asian girls that would not give him the time of day...yes, Gusto's girlfriend is Asian, and no, he was not being racist....he was trying to speak to them in Cambodian...or so he says...and they did not reply..)
Zodiac13: The staff hated us at the Mexican Restaurant, El Rey. Lush shows up and takes us on a walking tour of the entire state of Tennessee.
ShackleMeNot: Most of the guys decided to go eat Mexican, but I didn't want anything spicy in my gut if I was gonna be drinking, and Seth demanded American food, so the two of us and Gusto went elsewhere. Before all of this though, Gusto and I went on a mission to find him a cowboy hat. Now, he was already pretty drunk, so I found it to be highly amusing when he was walking up to girls trying to find out how he looked in the hats, stumbling around trying to regain his balance. He also made a huge deal that if he was to spend 40 dollars on a hat, he should get a free sticker with it. The cashier however, did not agree. I had to walk out because I was laughing so hard. We ended up at the San Antonio grill, across the street from the Mexican place and got some burgers. Gus told us how not to live our lives and we just bullshitted for an hour or so and went to find the others. When we got there, Gus immediately began hitting on any woman in sight, regardless if she was 7 or 70. We found the guys and sat down, Gus began throwing nachos at everyone. They all made it quick to get out of there, and Lush took us around town.
