Chicago Green Beer Day

Okay so the last few days have been a bummer thinking about not being in Oxford for GBD, not getting the week off for Spring Break and the weather being really crumby in Chi-town. To make up for it the large gathering of Miamians in Chicago gives birth to Chicago GBD last Saturday. While you did have to buy a ticket, the event and the gathering overall was well worth it and just what I needed. 900 drunken people, open bar and drinking at 10AM was the perfect remedy to everything.

We started the day at 8AM for breakfast at my friend's apartment (and lots of drinking) and then heading to the bar for the open bar. The second we went outside shit got real and the trip to the bar was difficult enough. We then engaged in 4 hours of unlimited drinking. The bar was dark and disorienting and by the end of it I honestly had no idea if it was 2PM or 2AM (hint it was 2PM). The entire group got separated and myself, my roommate and another Miami grad ended up in one of those really nice car dealerships that are all inside and such. Shockingly and we still don't know how none of us got arrested or yelled out, so WIN! Then we all got separated, I got lost and ended up falling asleep on the train. But I made it home somehow.

We had plans to go out later - that didn't happen as everyone spent their entire day on a couch or in a bed somewhere. Oh well, here's to another successful GBD!

Peace out!
