Halloween - Pub Crawl (With Pictures)

Halloween, another event that Canadian's and American's love to party down and drop trowl on (and blowing out a cleveland steamer on people's chests) was held on Monday. I celebrated it in true Australian style by getting drunk on Saturday night.

Here is a run down of the nights events (I love run downs)

- Fell asleep during the day - late afternoonish and woke up around 6. The pub crawl tickets stated that the starting time for the bruhaha was 5. I dressed quicklyish, gave myself a quickerish inspection in the mirror, vomited and cringed (that didnt really happen. I was pleased. Very.) and exited the building, my budy Matt in tow. Or invetero. What? Huh? Did I mention that we dressed up as cowboys? Man, I was on fire.

- Got to the place, club, pub, thing.. whatevvvvver, then found out that the party bus (a yellow school bus) had already left and gone onto its next "secret" location. After smashing the bouncer to a pulp and grinding the guys hand into the ground, he told us that the bus and patrons had gone to the Red Room.

The Red Room (So Red, it gets a capital R)

- We jumped in the cab, went to the Red Room (its not all that red. Its more of a dark poo colour) and went inside. We were greeted by a cavalcade of costumes and drunken canadians. There were Genie's (The I dream of variety), police, that guy from A Clockwork Orange, a near nude spider man, some prisoners, and some girl in a pink scarf thing. Matt and I got 2 shots of Jaeger and a beer, downed them in quick succession and the night was "officially" underway

You will have to excuse me, as im typing this Wayne's World 2 is on tevelision so I've having huge tempations to write quotes from it mid sentence.. Here's one.

"I might just stay here and lick the cat's butt.."

- Matt and I leaned up against the bar, true cowboy style, and drank a few more beers, surveying the crowd. Random girls came up to us. Well one anyway, and she was drunk but we sure were getting some looks from the crowd. It was probably because we looked like idiots, but you never can tell.. I think the most memorable moment from this part of the night was the Canadian crowd watching the ice-hockey, the guy from a Clockwork Orange hooting and cheering, very out of character.

- After a little bit the DJ announced the party bus was leaving, Matt and I had just ordered a new beer so we had to scull them. Tough, but I did it. I'is da best (Thanks, Bromwell high) We jumped on the party bus, sat right up the back and got driven to our next secret location. Turns out it was Richards on Richards (or as the locals like to call it, Richards on Richards


Artie Fartie

Richards on Richards (Dick on Dicks)

- Matt and I filed in, got a few beers.. well one each and drank them. Got approached by Genie, who seemed to want to know people who were staying in Vancouver longer than a day and a few weeks respectively, we sent her on her way. Then we got approached by the chick with the feathery scarf and her friend, I can't remember what she was wearing really.. but the scarf wearing girl started talking to me and asked me a few questions and the conversation ended up with something like this

Me - blah blah blah blah, something inane, stupid attempt at witty remark (Thinking to myself that this girl is trashed)
Her - I have a boyfriend
Me - Uhh, That's good news (Wondering why this is important news to tell me.)

Usually I would expect that sort of thing if I was the one that approached the girl and she didn't want a bar of me (It happens alot, the line, not me approaching girls, im too shy)

Matt and I started to get a little drunk at this point, so the next few bits are a bit of a blur so I'll try to remember as best I can, and embelish alot of it.


Matt Getting Down.

The DJ announced again that the party bus was leaving, so we all went outside, talked some random crap to random people, jumped on the bus, got my crotch grabbed by some girl in quick succession and slumped down onto the seat at the back. The bus drove us down to a place called Azures.. or something

Azures

This place was located right near the casino. This is not a good thing. Matt and I joined the mega queue, both of us singing the Kayne West song "Gold Digger". Matt a fair bit louder than me. We also started talking to these Australian guys. I pretty much was paying out on them. Then there was some girl who we said something to, it was probably something stupid.

Anyway so we eventually got into the club, Matt stopping off to sing the chorus of Gold Digger to the lady letting people in, she thought it was funny (apparantly)

I can't really remember the next few hours, i think it involved drinking and talking to random people. Eventually we got a (long overdue) call from Dale, who was outside, I let him in, knocking aside the bouncers and consumed a few more drinks. It was around about this time that things got really hazy


30 minutes AD (After Dale)

Events were something like this

- Danced around
- Talked to the devil in the blue dress
- Stole some bread rolls and a beer out of the bar
- Went to the casino
- Dale and I sat at the blackjack table, won about $65
- Lost about $65
- Found bread roll on my seat (Matt had gone back to the club (which had closed!!) jumped the fence and taken a few bread rolls, stuffed them into his pockets and came back into the casino)
- Left the blackjack table, found Matt downstairs feeling sick, having eaten half of fish and chips that he ordered
- Ate some fish and chips
- Left casino, started talking to two girls who were lifeguards or something. Talked some random crap to them
- Jumped into a limo with life guard girls, life guard girls get out, limo guys attempts to charge us $50 for a 5 minute ride, we pay him $20 and walk away. He is mad. We go to bed. What a fun night. Fun Fun Fun,

I love Halloween.
