This time for guys weekend I got to be a passenger.
Riley was happy to see Peter when he arrived…
But his happiness was short lived when he realized he was being left behind.
We headed out on our journey…
And on our way found out that we weren’t the first to get to the condo.
But that’s OK, the draft was our main focus for the weekend.
We wasted no time in getting to the drinking after arrival.
We brought plenty of appropriate clothing.
We drank a lot in a short time period, so we crashed out early.
The next morning as we got started on the day…
Peter made sure to leave out some Ravens goodness on display.
My neighbor Tom was in town, but he was doing the family thing.
We headed out to get lunch….
And then came back and started playing video games.
Love that spring time pollen on the table.
Achievement whoring!!!
Later that evening Joe joined us.
Our party size was growing…
And it was time to head out for the main event.
This year we were doing the draft at Seacrets while watching the Electric Co. during their CD release party.
The band was doing sound check when we got there…
So we went and had a few drinks. It’s hard to see, but in this picture I do have on the “Batman” utility belt.
Showing off the stylin’ photo pass.
Sound check was over, and it was grub time.
Back at our table, Joe was picking up on the Cleveland fans.
I love that shirt.
Shots, the best way to get things going quickly.
While we were there for the draft and Ryan was there to perform, he showed us his true colors.
I took a few pictures, and this was the “goofy” one.
On stage first was Jenn Grinels. Be sure to check out the album “Jenn Grinels @ Seacrets – Ocean City, MD” for those pictures.
While I was doing the photos, Joe was a good sport and did the note taking of the draft on the newspaper.
Up next was Chester River Runoff. Be sure to check our the album “Chester River Runoff @ Seacrets – Ocean City, MD” for those pictures.
The only other guy wearing an NFL jersey, and I love the fact that it was the team that beat the Steelers in the Super Bowl.
Joe was getting all the women!!!!
We were about halfway through the first round, and on our way to being drunk.
It seems that beautiful women were everywhere!!!!
Social!!!!!
Peter, always the flirt.
Not a jersey, but the only other person wearing something from the NFL.
Not a fire hose, but an “ire” hose. Jah mon, get it?
Well, the first round of the draft was over…
But the band played on.
Peter E. and Joe, however, had their fill of the night and headed home.
While Peter and I stayed and watched the rest of the show. As a note, this is one of my favorite shots of the night.
Some things never change.
When we got back to the condo about 2 hours after Peter and Joe…
They had locked the doors and passed out, so we needed to break in.
The slider was open, and when we came in, these guys didn’t move.
We stayed up for a little while longer….
Before passing out like those before us.
The next morning it was hangover recovery time.
Of course when the evening finally rolled along, we were ready to drink.
We headed to Mother’s….
For a quick drink…
Before making our trip down to Fish Tales.
The food there is so good!!
And of course, shots were in order.
Not my namesake, but he was another Scott H.
I’m not sure what he is showing, but their faces are kind of funny.
From Fish Tales we headed south to Peppers…
It was at this time that my memory starts to get fuzzy.
We left Peppers and continued our journey South.
I was really having trouble keeping the camera steady by this point.
With that in mind, why not have another drink?
We only stayed for about 30 minutes….
And while we ran into some friends from Seacrets…
I needed to go and get some food.
Fat Daddy’s has some of the best late night eats in Ocean City.
While we waited, Peter investigated a wet spot behind a dumpster.
Not sure why he didn’t use the restaurant bathroom…
And I’m not sure what is happening here either…
But my guess is both were due to drinking, just like the reason we were taking a cab home.
Too drunk to open the door, so Peter did it for me.
10 minutes after we got back Chris arrived (he just came from a wedding).
Looks like he took a couple pictures when he walked in, too.
We drank some more in honor of Chris’ arrival…
And generally enjoyed the good times of a party now being 5 people.
With Chris being the senior member, everyone had to shift their sleeping arrangements.
The next morning it was time to start partying again.
We started with some video games….
And then moved onto the drinking.
With dinner time near, we headed to OC Wasabi for sushi.
I want sushi just looking a this picture.
There were only small tables available, so we broke into 2 groups.
We stopped by Anthony’s to get some more beer…
And then took a picture before heading out.
Peter E. was staying in the last night, so the rest of us headed to Mother’s….
Where Joe and Chris did shots all night.
Well that’s all for this trip, but as you can see Peter and I were the last to leave.
