So I'm up in Terre Haute, IN with my dad right now for the Indiana Special Olympics and he has his official friends and what not. So after today(Saturday) we go to the guy who runs the thing's house and have a little party. Well I'm the only person from Kentucky besides my dad(who's really a Hoosier but lives in Kentucky) and my dad's friend's wife. So I'm being heckled during the UK game and I turn to the guy beside me and I'm like, "I WANNA HIT THIS GUY!" Well, my dad's friends aren't the nicest people in the traditional sense of the word and the guy I wanted to hit, Bob, is in there with the best of them and had no problem being mean to me. Well, the guy sitting next to me was Tom, and said, very enthusiastically, that he would pay to see me hit Bob. So began the journey towards my fifty bucks.
A few minutes later, Tom comes up to me with twenty dollars and says that he will pay me that to hit him. I go, "noooo. That's mean." Then, it increases to forty. Once it hits that, it's on. I tell them, "Get it to fifty." And you won't believe you added the last five dollars----BOB. When my dad saw that, him and his best friend, Trevor had to walk out of the house they were laughing so hard. So now that it was fifty, I was like, "Umm. Can it be after the game?" They were like, "Nooo. Next time out!" As luck would have it, two seconds later, there was a time out. So I get up, it gets dead quiet and PJ, this other referee, pulls out his phone and starts taking the video. So I feel AWFUL. I walk up to Bob and go "Ummm....." And then I just kind of hit him, like barely at all. And then they got really mad because I didn't hit him hard enough, so I had to do it again, and I barely hit him any harder at all. But, hey, it worked. I got my fifty bucks. And Bob was a good sport about it so it made me feel much better.
So now I'm fifty dollars richer and what I did will now be a joke at many Special Olympics Terre Haute parties to come. (:
