Man a couple of years back when HFD went on tour with 3 Day Binge, we got to Jasper a day early, and 3 Day beat us there by about 5 hours. For those of you that have never been to Jasper, they don't just sell beer by the pitcher there, they sell it by the GALLON.
So, we get there, the Binge had already drank 5 gallons, and now HFD has got to play catch up. Man, I have never chugged so many beers in my life. After HFD had drank about 5 gallons, the Binge pollished off their 8th, and we decide it was time to head back to the house we were crashing at. Now between the house and the bar, was a school yard, enclosed by a steel mesh fence. We decide to cut through. We walk and we walk. Halfway through we come to a little divider fence so we climb over that no problem. We keep walking straight, and we come to the fence on the other side. No exit in site. By now we are fucking hammered, I had already tackled RJ and knocked his glasses flying. We start walking along the fence for what seemed like an eternity until we come to a section of fence that's twice as high as the rest of the fence. Dal, being most particularly drunk, suggests we climb over this monstrocity. Well since we're all drunk as shit, this sounds like a friggin great idea. Up we all go. Even me. Now for those of you that don't know me... I'm a pretty big friggin guy. The fact that I was even able to make it to the top of this 15 foot mesh fence...while drunk... was a miracle. But by the time I got to the top, I was so exhausted that I knew if I went any further, I would most definitely fall and kill myself. So at least I had the sense of mind to climb back down the way I came. So now, I'm off in search of the elusive exit. I can't find it anywhere. So I decide to go back out the way we came. I get to the little fence we hopped earlier, and this time I figure I can just jump right over. WRONG. I catch my feet and do a complete face plant into the grass. If I wasn't drunk, I think I probably would have knocked myself unconsious. SO, the moral of the story? Don't try to match gallons with 3 Day Binge in Jasper and go fence climbing. The next morning, I saw an exit right beside that huge fence.
