A brief recap of the weekend is below and I’ll write more tonight with thoughts and antidotes about people I can’t stand.
Friday Night
After calling it a day around 3:00, I drank a few beers at the pool before heading to the airport. Got into KC around 9:00 and hung out with the nieces and nephew.
Saturday
The day began by watching my 9-year old nephew play in his first tackle football game. I am convinced I would have scored every time I touched the ball but t,he coach wouldn’t put me in.Â
Afterwards, I went to the white trash capital of America, Wal-Mart, and bought some deodorant. Thanks to the towel heads, you can’t carry a stick of deodorant on an airplane. This probably doesn’t affect them as much as us because they don’t wear any.
I spent Saturday night grilling and having dinner with the family. I received 3 calls after midnight which made me hunt down my cell phone and finally turn it off.
Sunday
I got to Arrowhead around 8:00 AM, popped my first beer, and returned the calls from the previous night. Surprisingly, no one answered my call.Â
I tailgated with brother Dave, Bob, Kyle, Shelly, and Marilyn until 11:15. By then, it was time to get into the stadium for the first game of the year.
I apologized to the douche bag in our section for hip checking him into the crowd at last year’s final game. I bought a beer for $8.25 and got to my seat.Â
After watching the first half, I was ready to hip check the douche bag again but instead chose to buy another $8.25 beer and go see Wiley and Red who were sitting a few sections down from me.Â
The second half came and so did the rain. I watched Trent Green get carried off the field on a stretcher after receiving an illegal hit that didn’t draw a penalty flat. Whatever. The Chiefs lost 23-10 and their starting Quarterback. Just a start to another typical year of football in KC.
I was driven to the airport after the game and honestly don’t remember going through security or the flight itself. Tom d G picked me up from the airport and we went back to his house where a few people were watching the night game. I purchased a porn movie on Tom’s cable account which really came in handy during the commercials. I got a ride home around 10:45 and called it a night.Â
Monday Morning
I’m writing this at work wondering if I’ll ever win the lottery.
If I had a million dollars, I would buy you a monkey. Haven’t you always wanted a monkey?
