My drunkenness! Let me show you it!
Who: Ben, NPC ex-college buddies (scattered around the place) and Mina
Where: Anywhere But Here
When: At around 11:30pm, give or take
The invitation that had been phoned in earlier today by one of Ben's best college buddies - and one of the best hockey players he'd ever seen after himself and Will - had come as a very pleasant surprise. Apparently, three of his buddies from out of town - all from different parts of Illinois, were in town and wanted to go drinking. Ben saw no reason not to, quite the opposite. The beer flowed like life, and they drank it like it gave life. Ben included, of course; he might not do this often, but when he did, he did this right.
At some point in time, his buddies had scattered about the bar, some chatting up less than recommendable-looking women, one of them trying to win at pool against someone who, by the looks of him, played the damn game every night.
As for Ben, he remained sitting at the bar downing beer and singing along to the 80s rock hits playing out of the bar's speakers - loudly. Some might say too loudly, but at least some people seemed to be pleasantly amused by his drunken singing/swaying combo. Off-handedly, Ben hoped he wouldn't say so much that he fell off his stool.
