One thing that Will and I both forgot to mention last night was the little disruption that happened at dinner last night. We went to Carmine's for dinner. When we walked in to put our name down the hostest says "hold on just one second, let me see if there is a table ready", and she turns around to look into the restaurant. As she does this a semi drunk guy comes from inside the bar and steps right in front of us and asks her when his party is going to be seated. She turns back around and looks at this guy for 2 seconds and then asks him, Where did you're group go? We've been calling you for a long time now. He then goes into a little rant about how they are sitting right there in the bar. She tells him it will be one second, because they had called them many times and thought they had left. SO... he says a few words about there needed to be a better way to do THIS. I assume that he meant the normal act of waiting to be seated. So he goes back to join his group in the bar. She looks at us and says it will be one second. We kinda laugh and say, "we will be no trouble whatsoever". She walks into the restaurant to find us a table. Another hostess come back into the little lobby. ANOTHER guy from the bar come in and now confronts Hostess #2. She immediately asks him where they were. She's the one that has been sent all over the bar looking for them. He proceeds to tell her that she's full of shit. Ok, at this point there is no logic involved. The hostess says that she has been looking for them, and the guy says she has not. It gets to the point where another lady waiting in the lobby says to Guy #2 that he heard her yelling "Bill Party of 5" from where she was sitting. And she must have heard them yell it 5 different times. Guy #2 ignores the lady in the lobby. A few more little stupid ass remarks come out of drunk Guy #2's mouth and he walks back into the bar. At this point all the people in the lobby are just about fed up with "Bill party of 5". So we're laughing and the hostess (both #1 and #2) look at us with the "what the fuck is the deal with some people" look in their eyes. At this point they walk us to our table and our waitress comes and says "thank fuckin god i got you", i was one of the only people with a table and i was afraid they were going to give "Bill party of 5" to me. She takes our drink order and a few minutes later we still see a large group of people still in the lobby. You can tell there is some serious shit going down. So a few minutes later hostess #1 comes by our table and says i can't believe that guy. He tried to hit me. She shows us her hands and she's shaking. Will and I are both "Fuckin call the cops". She's already thrown the guys out of the place and it looks like at this point the Bus Boys are getting a little group together to do a little payback. LOL So we don't know exactly if "bill party of 5" got what was coming to them, but i kinda wish they had seated them and just given them 5 specials. Anyway, that was not it. Just a little later there is a commotion in the room just beyond the lobby. Our waitress is seen a few minutes later making a bee line back to us very quickly like she is trying to avoid something. She now says, "it's a nightmare in here tonight! I just had to carry a girl passed out into the bathroom." Will Jen and I all look up in disbelief. I guess the girl had just gotten tanked and fell over. The waitress came to the rescue, but found shortly there after that there was nobody backing her up. The "date" of the girl had not stepped in at any point to help out. SO... our waitress got her as far as the sink where she came to and she left her there.
Its just so damn funny to watch these little things go on. Will's camera wasn't quite quick enough to get a picture of "bill party of 5" but they get my vote for assholes of the weekend.
