Drunk people rule

        I went to a club BBQ on Saturday night after shooting the GNRS.  One of our members had a couple of friends there from out of town that had started drinking way before they got to the party.  One girl in particular was very entertaining.  At one point she dropped her iPhone 4s on the ground which illicited a collective groan from the group.  But all was well, the phone was secured in an OtterBox case!  She proceeded to tell us in great detail what a great case it was and that the phone could not be broken.  In fact, we should throw that phone across the back patio into the back yard.  She actually gave the phone to a member of another club and proceeded to taunt him into the throwing the phone.  Of course there were some drunken rules that developed during the course of the taunting.  4 rules according to her.  You must throw it right or throw it left (there was a fence behind him that faced the street).  You can't hit the microwave (apparently Big Honking BBQ's look like microwaves to drunk people).  You can't throw it over the fence.  The final rule was that it was OK to break the phone, but it still had to be able to make a call in the morning so she could call her provider to get a new one.  The person who had the phone is not generally known for restraint but even he had enough respect for the phone to not immediately want to trash it.  He actually lasted longer than I did.  After 5 minutes I wanted to go grab that phone and chuck it myself.  In the end he threw that damn phone about 30 feet and nailed the fence.  She hustled over, retrieved the phone, and handed it back to him to show that it still worked.  He did what any red blooded minitrucker would do.  He once again nailed that fence from 30 feet away.  Her drunk ass ran over to the phone and it was still working!  It looked like she did have to reboot it though.  Througout the course of the night she slammed it straight down into the concrete at least 5 times.  Hard.  It hit the fence twice thanks to our mini truckin friend.  She also nailed the microwave (BBQ) once and the house once (right next to a window I might add).  Somebody named Daniel in her contact list now knows what an Eiffel Tower is because of several text messages not sent by her.  All in all, it was a good night.

        I took two things with me from this party.  Drunk people rule, and I need to get one those OtterBox cases!


Look for a video of the whole thing in the next couple of weeks on the TRUCKRUN dot NET YouTube channel!
