Lost by a Cough

Last night I attended the USU Welcome Week BINGO Night. It was rigorous fun with much banging on tables and chanting amongst the crowd. My dear friend won in the first round and ran up to the stage to claim her prize. Wanting to keep the crowd's interest the EMCEE had her share with the audience her most embarrassing moment. She retold her story of walking into the boys bathroom without knowing so. The EMCEE then proclaims that she is a perv and as she walks away with her sweatshirt, frisbee, and clock ( which is now decorating our fabulous '70's paneled wall) the crowd starts chanting "perv, perv, perv..." it was great fun. The games continued and people starting trickling out. I collected left over game boards and was marking with my crayon numbers called. The last game came upon us and you had to create a U on the board to claim the grad prize- the flat screen TV. I only had a few spots covered and knew that even with my three other boards I was not going to possibly win. Well, numbers kept being called and I kept crossing them off on my original broad. Soon I only had the number 61 left to win. The number was called and I ran up to the stage- nearly tripping over everyone and everything. I was so excited I was shaking! Unfortunately I soon realized that there was another girl on stage. This was not good because that meant that we would have to have a tie breaker- and we did. We both had to chug a bottle of water and the first to get it down would be victorious. I started chugging and felt confident when all of the sudden I started choking and coughing. It was a very sad moment when this occurred for the other contestant was able to down the water with ease. I did not get to take home the lovely piece of technology that I was already making plans to sell to pay for next month's rent. I did receive a free lunch to the Firehouse. So I guess in the end we all come out winners.
