Beer goggles and dark lighting
Posted on June 5, 2008

The other night a group of superfun, scorching-hot chicks (and lame-o me) were out having drinks at a dive bar we’ve frequented quite a bit in the past. A strapping young guy (with all of the cockiness and swagger that only a man in his mid-20’s can get away with) walked up to this Dana and me while we were talking. He explained that he and his team had just finished playing softball. (Gee, a group of men with dirty shirts all sporting the same company’s logo but each with a different number on the back? I would have never guessed!)
“Uh, you guys? (Wow. What a smooth-talker, that one!) That guy over there? Um, he bet me five bucks that I couldn’t get five girls to touch my cup by the end of the night. (He motions to his crotch.) So… Will you touch my cup?”
He quickly adds, “But you know, if you do it, don’t let him know you know about the bet. You’re not supposed to know. So… Will ya touch my cup?”
Dana and I exchanged bemused looks. She was feeling feisty so she asked, “How do you want us to touch you?” I joined in, “Yeah, do you want us to knock on it or something.” He says, “No just reach on in there and grab it (he grabbed his “package” and gave it a quick pat.)
We looked at him and then each other. We giggled. Then we changed the subject. After talking with him a bit, we found out he thought we were “no more than 30, tops!”
HA!
Later on that night, while getting ready for bed, a thought slapped me upside the head in a big, bad way. Beer goggles and dark lighting – the only way I’ll ever look “no more than 30” again.
Well, that’s sort of depressing. But you know, since I have no money for botox nor time for the gym, I’ll take all the free “help” I can get.

What?! That’s awesome–so funny!
And, you look great! Of course he thought you were younger than 30!
But did you touch the cup?
And by the by, you’re beautiful and hott whatever age you are. I’m not even sure how old you are, but you look GREAT!
I SO would have touch the cup…more than likely knocked on it and made a comment about it being hollow.
Did you touch it?
What a lame pick up….I don’t even touch my husband’s cup. That thing is stinky! You of course ARE a hottie! This year has been a sobering year for me….I no longer get carded. sigh. I guess I am finally looking my years.
You are way too hard on yourself. Either way, it had to be a big ego boost, right? So, did you touch it? LOL!
Who cares why or how they thought that. The point is, they came up to you hotties. Cougars beware….
omg shut up! you are hot stuff and DO look young! but that story is hilarous!
You’re too hard on yourself.
Dude there was no bet he just wanted you to touch his cup!! heh
Amen to that, sister! Unfortunately I don’t get to visit too many places with dark lighting or men with beer goggles anymore. Breastfeeding can put a damper on your social life. Sounds like you hot chicks - yes, you included - had a great time. I’m jealous
Yes, did he win the bet?
I’ll tell you, If some dude said that to me all I would be able to think about would be the fact that my 9-year-old always forgets to take that stupid cup out of his special baseball cup underwear and it falls out on the laundry room floor thoroughly disgusting and frightening me each and every time!
Whatev, babe. Take it from a genuine still-under-thirty person: you could easily pass for 29.
Did ya touch it?
LOL! Too funny. It’s been years since I’ve been carded.
Like the others..I want to know. Did you touch the cup?
Only a $5 bet! These guys were dopey and cheap! So, did you touch it? Inquiring minds clearly want to know!
Do tell…I want to know too!! Did he win his bet?
Hope you had a blast with your friends. Don’t worry, you’ll always be young compared to me!! Hugs!!
You’d think they could have come up with a more creative bet. That’s such a teenage boy thing to do! And gross!
But, what I really want to know, you hot momma you, is: did you touch IT?
Yah I’m with the others… did you grab it? That sounded very exciting… And hey - regardless of the dim lighting and beer goggles you were, for a moment, no older than 30. At least he didn’t call you “ma’am”… my absolutely least favorite.
