Bachelor Party

This pas weekend I went to Chicago for Jason’s bachelor party.  Darren and I carpooled up on Friday.  We got to his apartment at around 9.  We went out to downtown St. Charles.  We found this nice pub with $2.50 Coronas and free popcorn.  We also learned about odd county ordinances in that county.

We crashed at his apartment that night.  The real bachelor party started on Saturday.  We were picked up around 11:30 by the best man.  After seeing Jason’s childhood house, I learned that I had no idea how into Monster Trucks he really is.

The first stop was IHOP for lunch.  Jason, his dad, his cousin, best man, Darren, and I were there.  After there we went to Chicago Indoor Racing.  It is basically glorified go karts.  I think they cater to high end clients.  You walk in, they don’t have any board or sign showing the prices or how anything works.  And to boot, they have these young hot girls that work there that are total b**ches.  So anyway, this place has pretty fast go karts.  You have this whole experience thing.  You have to put on this bright red jumpsuit, helmet, neck brace, this whole thing.  It is pretty fun.  We did three races total, and I was 2nd to Jason every time.  It’s pretty high tech: they have times for every lap, average times, big leader board thing.  Pretty cool.

After the first race we went to Fox and Hounds to have a few beers, play some pool and drink some beer.  I learned I’m not nearly as bad at darts as I thought I was.  After that we headed back to CIR for our 2nd and third race.

After that we headed to the Casino.  We stopped at a Subway and local grill place for dinner on the way.  I found out the Casino up there really sucks compared to the Queen.  The queen is bigger, nicer, and has lower minimums.  This place had $15 minimums for roulette.  That’s the kind of minimums the Bellagio has. I did hit my biggest payout ever on the first spin when we sat down.  I did end up losing it all again, but I expected as much at a casino.

We left the casino and went back to downtown St. Charles.  We all went back to the bar we had been to the night before.  Later we went to a different place and stayed there until close.  We went back to Jason’s mom’s house and crashed there.  Jason threw up, so I know he had a good time.

Darren and I left Sunday morning in a light snow.  Very uneventful drive but very enjoyable weekend.  It was nice to get away and I don’t see Jason very often at all.
