I’m not a big fan of carnival, although it’s a quite happy time with everybody having a good time (getting drunk) and all. Nontheless I went out to Ludwigsburg (the next biggest city around) to have a little fun – not particularly carnival fun, but pub fun (if there’s something like pub fun at all :wink: ).
So we went out to Club 69 which had a Coyote Ugly party tonight (for all who are unfamiliar with the hollywood movie see here). The concept is quite easy to understand: you’ve got a pub and you’ve got one or more fine girls who are acting as go-go-girls dancing on the bar in hot clothes…then those girl(s) hand out free drinks. After having a good time there we decided it was time to move on, so we went to Tatort which is a legendary cocktail bar around here. After having ourselves some nice drinks we decided that it was time to get home…and that’s where the “problems” started. Did you ever try to get a taxi at carnival time?
So we had to walk quite a while to get to the train station where all the (remaining) taxis are waiting for customers (and believe me it’s cold out here)…but we made it and now I’m home safe without having to risk my driver’s license – I always encourage ppl to get a taxi instead of drinking & driving (mostly due to common sense and the fact that one of my best mates was killed in a car accident almost three years ago (he couldn’t do anything about it, a drunk driver hit him)).
Bottom Line:
- It’s 3:27am and I had a good time
- Some different drinks…around 20€
- Paying for a taxi (sharing it with 3 mates)…around 8€
- Being home safe…priceless
That said, it’s time to get some sleep as I’ve got to get up in some hours to play a friendly match (FCM II – GSV Pleidelsheim II)…Good night :rolleyes:
