Addendum 1 to "The Shit Show" from 8/31/2009

"Friday, somewhere around 5:30, Dave and Busters
I vaguely remember stumbling into Dave and Busters in broad daylight. We were either too drunk to get into the bowling party or didn't feel like it, but the next the I remember is order a beer or vodka on the rocks at the bar and playing pool. The pool playing was a lost cause for me. I decide to try to meet some women. I have this image of myself walking up to these 3 women playing pool at the other part of the pool room. I walk up and can barely speak. I vaguely remember possibly standing behind someone. I was told later that I was talking to them and began leaning forward, almost falling. I don't believe this, but it is what I was told. I remember going back up to the bar and ordering another drink. This time I was told that I can't be served. I asked them if it was because I was too drunk. I was told yes. I saunter off with slumped shoulders, what at the time I'm sure I felt was a "victimized" look. It was honest though. I honestly felt sorry for myself that I could be served here. I believe that looking back, I can remember a larger manager type walking up from a different room. This is what we call in the bizz, "backup". They figured these three shlubs that hobbled their mangey asses in here may cause a problem. I'm assuming there was some physical aggression taking place between F and myself because I remember discussing fighting several times and I have a bruised sternum as I type this. Something happened. I remember again walking up to the bar. This time the muscle was here. I attempt to order a drink. They again tell me no, and I remember remembering that they had "cut me off." I slump the shoulder and walk back to my friends. I don't remember anything after this. I'm assuming the fact that they weren't serving me was an issue and that we felt we needed to go somewhere with more lax rules. I was told later that J had joined us in our next ride in S's car."

Since this entry, more information has surfaced regarding the actual events that occurred during our stay at Dave and Busters. All of the statements are mostly accurate, except that the actual reason we left was because were officially "kicked out". What had happened was that I, having been a little upset at being cut-off, went up to the bar with 2 or 3 pool balls and commenced to toss them into the bar area. This led to our immediate dismissal. Note that this is after I had spilled a full beer on the pool table a few minutes earlier.

And boom goes the dynamite.
