Dear clearly intoxicated man at the concert,

Hi, its me-the girl across the aisle who absolutely LOVES country concerts. This concert is great isn' t it? I have been pretty excited to see Jason Aldean. I didn't notice you at first, you see I was a little late coming in. I won a pass to meet Luke Bryan downstairs before his show. And boy was he BEAUTIFUL!!! I was distracted for the rest of the no-name performer's show. Whoops!

I think you first grabbed my attention as you were greeted by the security guards. You may remember them. They were the ones in the stylish maroon blazers that ruined 'all of your fun.' I know you were making life long friends with the people coming up and down the aisles-passing out high fives and making passes... I was glad to see that you weren't an aggressive drunk though. You didn't get angry. I think that elderly security guard was pleased too.

By the end of the beautiful Luke Bryan's show you were completely

wasted! I apologize for laughing. You did seem to think you were the show though, so maybe you liked it... I know you liked your drink. Karalee said you were sauced before the first show was over. I must have been distracted by the gentleman who stacked up 5 beers or so by the end who was sitting behind me--the one who was trying to get into our pictures. (You know what, it looks like he had only had one at this point, so maybe he was just friendly.)

I know you were pretty friendly. I almost admired the way you were trying to make sure everyone was having a good time. I bet Jason appreciated the way you would turn around and try to get the crowd to scream a little louder. (Which by the way was unnecessary because I couldn't hear myself.) Jason should probably thank you for putting yourself in such obvious peril. It was obvious standing without falling over was a challenge.

This impairment did make Karalee and I kind of nervous to get on the road. Actually come to think of it, I think it made another maroon blazer nervous too. I noticed her asking you after the show if you were planning on driving. We elected to go to Denny's to meet up with some friends and wait for the drunks to clear the freeway.

We were almost there when we met a few other fellas. One young man asked us to party with him and his friend. Let me tell you his pickup line--so you are never tempted to use it. "Hey ladies, uh, my friend has really low self esteem, so... would you girls party with us? He is going back to Cali tomorrow." Yeah, don't use that. It wont work.

We did have a good time last night and your presence was a part of that, albeit a nervous part. You didn't make us as nervous as the older man that pulled up to the curb as we were almost to our cars though...

Thanks for the good times, if only you could remember it.

Love Lori
