Paddy's big night out
*Name has been changed to protect the innocent*

Paddy was a Fresher, just like I was at the time. I met up with him and a few of his mates in a campus bar, eight years ago now. I was with the alternative music society and we were going to head into the city to the alternative night at a local club. Paddy, being an Irish country hick from the middle of nowhere, had never had the opportunity to go to club of any variety, let alone the alternative variety. So they hooked up with us and we went into the club.

At this point I might add it was basically a rock and alternative music night, not a fetish or otherwise alternative night. Although they did do that sometimes...

Paddy paid, put his coat in the locker room and walked down to the bar. I could tell by the look on his face that this was going to be a good night.

Paddy had a pint. Paddy had a dance. Paddy got pulled. Paddy had another pint, then another. Paddy had a dance. Paddy got pulled, by another girl this time. As you can imagine, he was somewhat amazed by all of this. So were the rest of us for that matter.

Paddy had a pint. Paddy went back to the dancefloor. The two girls propositioned him. At the same time. Paddy freaked out.

I remember dragging/carrying/guiding this strange gabbling collection of limbs back to campus with the rest of his mates. Poor old Paddy, he never did quite live it down.
