This weekend I begrudgingly attended a church festival with a friend of mine whom is a devout Catholic. I thought this thing was going to suck a dick. If there is one thing I hate it is religion and if there are two things I hate, the second one is hordes of people. However, I had a blast at this. You know why? Apparently Catholic church festivals have.... Spoiler GAMBLING! Like full fledged casinos, with cash poker games and black jack and stuff I walked out $130 and one cake (cake walks rule) richer. I had the time of my life. They also had two dollar beers. I'm looking for more of these festivals to attend for future weekends. I was only reprimanded for saying God Damnit twice. I feel like I did a good job. FOCUS: A time when you thought a situation was going to suck a fat cock, and it turned out to rock!
I am wracking my brain but I can't think of anything right now. I am sure I'll think of something. Until then, uh, BUMP.
When I was a kid I was forced to go to a renaissance fair after I got to go to the theme park. I bitched about it but it turned out awesome. Women with big boobs falling out of corsets? Yes please. Really though the whole thing was cool and I've been meaning to go back for a long time but have never made it.
I'll second the renaissance fair. In my experience, renaissance fairs are where the neckbeards and other dregs of nerd society gather and talk about the real-life applications of Magic: The Gathering while dressed in Don Quixote-esque knight costumes. So when one of my friends said "Hey, this renaissance fair is pretty cool," I was understandably skeptical. Well, it was pretty damn awesome. Legit sword fights, jousting, throwing rotten tomatoes at the dude in the stocks... I had a lot of fun. The atmosphere was outstanding, and most of the people were pretty cool.
A baseball game. I've never been one for sports, but there was something about this particular local minor league team game that i found fascinating. Although, I recently went to a game, and i was bored to tears. Maybe i set my sights too high.
