The Imperial Room

So last night the Project Bowl members went out for a little fun. It had been a while since we went out for a night on the town and since I got a fancy award from work I figured celebration was needed.

So we headed out to the Imperial Room in Downtown Minneapolis for some drinks (of course Va-Va was only allowed no alcoholic beverages, poor girl). We got there a bit early and found a cozy little spot on the corner of the bar. At first there was this huge group behind us so the people coming in and out of the corner had a bit of a tight squeeze, and after having her poor knees crushed by some dude Va-Va moved to the other side. In an act of kindness of bumping and making us move so many times the guy did end up giving us some free drink passes, so that was cool.

The night carried on with our usual unusual antics and lots of laughter ensued!

There was this creepy guy sitting behind me for a while who kept trying to talk to me, then apologizing because the bar was busy. I told him that I liked bars like this because it provides much entertainment in people watching. So then he tried to point out people and talk about them, but they weren't doing anything that would be worthy of be talked about so I kindly smiled and ignored him. He kept leaning over and apologizing and was obviously getting plastered. So then I get up to use the restroom. I leave my purse close to Va-Va and also push my drink close to Stiggy to keep an eye on. When I returned from the ladies room, Va-Va and Stiggy told me that the guy grabbed my drink and moved it closer to him. So just as I was about to say something, the guy took his martini and poured it into my drink and then took a sip of it! What a freak! Plus GROSS, I was having a Mai Tai...eww mixed with a martini. So I told the bar lady and she ended up telling the manager, he jumped over the bar and grab the creep by the collar and kicked him out. So needless to say I got a new fresh Mai Tai on the house :)

So during the night we nabbed some pics of some funny moments and also the creepy drink!

Take notice of the olives, Mai Tai's don't' have olives in them! Eww!

Cute little group shot


I was not permitted to show any of the 'other' more 'explicit' photos, for those you will have to ask Stiggy and Va-Va's permission ;)

It was a good time after all, I mean how could it not been with good people like Va-Va and Stiggy!
