My Un-American 4th of July

My Un-American 4th of July

Hey There Kids. I haven't posted in a while because I have been on the move recently, including a vacation to the land of aboot and eh. What is so special about this? It was the most unamerican thing I could have done on America;s Birthday. Here is what I remember from the trip:

 

We arrived in Canada around 8pm. Going over the border through Buffalo, NY was quite fun. I was very tempted to make a fool of myself with the border control lady, like asking her if my biceps were considered firearms, but had second thoughts after realizing she could easily tear my ass apart. Finally, we arrived at Niagra Falls, got settled in at the Radisson and it was off to see the Falls.

 

I feel like Niagra Falls is one of those sites that you see once and it's cool, and then after that, not so much. So many foreigners though. I mean so many... Thankfully, they are all there for the falls and not to many go to the bars and casino.

 

After visiting the falls, my buddy and I knew what to take advantage of next. 19 Year Old Drinking Age. Being only 20, this is glorious. We first went to a brazilian bar (in Canada?) called Copacabana. Started with a 20 oz. Molson Canadian. WHat sucked about this? That 20 oz cost me 6.75!! What the hell.. everything right across the border seemed ridiculously expensive, which is expected, but later in the night, we found some cheaper bars.

 

We hit up a couple of more bars, took my buddy's dad out for a beer, and then headed East on Fallsview Avenue towards the other casino. By now, it was close to 1am and we decided that our plan was to 1.)Buy Cubans 2.) Go to Jack's Bar and Cantina, get drunk, and smoke our cubans, and 3.) Blow whatever money we had left at the Casino.

 

At Jack's, we killed a pitcher of Waterloo Dark, which was a very dark beer (it looked like Coke a Cola), but tasted like a lite beer. Quite tasty. While here, we met some of the locals, my buddy did some illegal drugs, and continued to get drunk. We drank a couple more beers, and then it was 2am and time to leave. By now, we are drunk...very drunk, and head to the casino. I was not so lucky and lost probably 40 bux or so.

 

My friend walked off and i didn't see him for 2 hours, but when he came back, he was up 270 from 2 cent slots. Ridiculous right?

 

We didn't get back that night till 5AM , but it was a ****ing ridiculous night.

 

THe next day, we met an Austrailian who liked America better than Canada, learned about Poutine, and smoked another Cigar.

 

A great great trip.

 

Happy Belated 4th!

And you are a useless blogger.

If you've got "nothing to write", write nothing.

I quite enjoyed the story.
Especially the illegal substances part.
