Back Story: This whole excursion was back in the mid 70's, Bob's dad gave him the car keys to go cruise around town a little bit and as he did he came across Glenn and myself. We cruised and came across Chris & Juice, making five of us in one of those big boat cars. Bob made clear we had to stay in town and to not **** anything up in the car.
UPDATE: Glenn and I convinced Bob we needed to go to this town 20 miles away and go in to bar to get a drink. We guilted him by telling him we've done it before and it was easy. He gave in and off we were. Bob also told us his dad said if he wasn't back in a reasonable time, he'd report the car stolen. On the way to bar Glen and I rehearsed the others on knowing and ordering like they know what they are doing.
---- We get there, we go in and right away the two dumb-***** act like kids. We tell them to shut up and sit down. Waitress comes and Glenn (still a best friend) orders a Jack-n-coke, Bob orders a Bacardi something, Chris order something, I ordered a Tequilia sunrise, and juice was fidgeting and I just told waitress he'd have the same as mine. She brought us all the drinks and I think they were a buck apiece and I gave here $6 & keep the change, she gave me a wink. We all felt BIG, but in reality Glenn and I were the BIGs and the other three were along for the ride.
----- We talked and then waitress asked if we wanted another round and Chris & Juice didn't know what that meant and before it became a problem, Glen said yes another round and she knew we were young but served us anyways. I told the table to drink up we had to get out of there and on the road. Glenn and I downed them and then we had to down both Cris & Juice's as they were ****-ing wimps. We leave and Bob was panicked about getting back and booze breath. Gave him gum and by the time we got back to town all was good. His dad was suspicious, but Glenn and I had the right answers.
------ Bottom line, for a bunch of 14yr olds, we did pretty good, and we tell this story between us often. Bob has passed away from a car accident, Juice is on psychotic medication, Chris is long gone & haven't seen or heard from him in 35 yrs, like I said... Glenn is a best friend and we talk all the time. Still get a smile when I remember the "wink" from the barmaid.
