The plan was to meet Dickie Biggins at Gallagher's in OB to watch the UFC fight then see the Leperkhanz (one of my favorite local bands).
After work Heather and I go to Santana's to get mexican food, I of course get carne asada fries...I get scared of trying new things...don't want another mozzarella cocktail issue.
We talk some shit and eat our food then head over to Gallagher's and wait for Dickie Biggins to get off work. While at Gallagher's we have a beer and text Dickie to hurry up. Heather and I don't like the UFC fights, in fact we don't like to see fights at all but if it gets Dickie to come hang with us then we can deal with it...the bar starts getting filled up, and we get a text from Dickie letting us know that his girlfriend Kara is on her way, cool. Then minutes later we get a text from him saying they are charging $10 at the door so they are not coming because they can see the fight for free somewhere else. ok :(
Heather and I think that since we got there early we are safe....we are not, a big guy comes over and asks if we were staying for the fights..we say uhhh sure (mostly because we didn't want to chug our beers and leave)..then he charged us $10 and stamped our hands and gave us two tickets for hotdogs...these better be some damn good hotdogs! We're not hungry but we pretty much just spent $10 on hotdogs...so you know damn sure we are gonna eat them.

So the fights begin, again we do not watch these things so we have really no idea what is going on, all we know is these fighters are retarded looking and have gross cauliflower ears from being hit so many times...one fighter had shaved his chest hair into an arrow pointing up at his face...like hit me here. Who does that? and thinks that is a great idea...
One of the bartenders gave us a red velvet cookie with cheesecake frosting inside it was so rich Heather and I had to share one....OMG that was a good cookie, now that was worth $10. She said she gets bored so she bakes and brings them in to give out...I think she does that only on fight nights though.. Then we get our hotdog...just a plain old hotdog, I was more impressed with my cookie.
By this time it's like the 2nd or 3rd fright in and we are bored...so we decide to leave and come back...we walk out and go to The Black and look for flair for work...I found quite a bit of buttons (very excited) there was many that I wanted but can't wear to work :(
then after that we go to the car and get my camera (that we never actually used) and OMG was it cold, the wind picked up and kicked our ass. after the car we went into a liquor store and got candy (mike n ikes for me) it was nice and warm in there...then we wandered over to Temptress to window shop because they were closed, then went into some little discount shop where I bought Shealyn a fanny pack...yes a fanny pack, and she will rock it too.

Finally we go back into the bar, the fight is still going on and now some guy and decided to make friends with us, letting us know that he has money on the fight and if his guy wins he will by us drinks, also letting us know that he knows his fighter in some round about way, like his friends' cousins' sisters' friend knows a guy that has fought with him or something like that...whatever, I'm not impressed.
It's a draw nobody wins nobody loses...moving on.
The Leperkhanz get ready to go on..Heather and I move closer to the stage and see my friend Jackie who is a little tipsy now and in charge of merch for the band, so I bought a shirt and go put it on....I love my new shirt. We enjoy the music, my friend Lisa shows up and we all dance and sing along....good times.
After the band takes a break, Jackie gets another drink and is a bit drunk now so I take over merch...no one buys anything...maybe it's me, I'm not inviting enough when it comes to selling stuff hahaha...
Everything is great until my friend Rhy (the lead singer) points and yells in the middle of a song "wanna die mother fucker?!" "touch her again!" he was talking to some guy who apparently touched his fiancée Jackie..the guy takes a step back and Rhy continues with the song as if nothing happened....well it is an Irish rock band in an Irish Pub so it wouldn't be all things Irish without great music, drunks stumbling all over themselves, bad dancing and someone getting their ass beat by the end of the night...(no fight broke out, thank goodness)
The band ended, the DJ began and that meant it was time for me to leave...all and all it was a great night
