Baconalia 2008: MNSpeak Takes On Manny's and a Trip to the ER

Mmmm, bacon...

So, Saturday was the first ever Minneapolis Bacon Bash. A bunch of us internet nerds decided to leave the safe confines of cyberspace to do a pub crawl for bacon. Earlier in the day, people got together for lunch at the Triple Rock, whereas I decided to do the evening crawl of The Local and Manny's Steakhouse (totally worth the money, BTW).

As you can see, we basically went shit wild and ordered only the most heart healthy of appetizers and entrees.

I took this opportunity to order Oysters Rockefeller, something I've always shied away from. I really don't dig on oysters, as the texture freaks me out and they always seem to be the basis of a rash of E. Coli breakouts. These, however, were wonderful (and cooked) and I got 6 of 'em for under $14. They didn't really make me horny, though.

Manny's has a little known problem with flying Lobsters. Our intrepid waiter caught this one before it landed on our table and pinched all of our butts.

Max and Coco know that bacon makes you STRONG!

The cast of Silver Spoons has a secret shocker fetish. And you all thought it was a family show.
Sliver Spoons.  Status: shocked.

After all the bacon, we attended a rave at Abysmal Chick's condo. My tits made an appearance.

Anyway, after Manny's we treked over to Brit's Pub where, due to an extremely slippery linoleum floor and my kick ass 4 inch heels, I fell down. Classy. It wasn't until the next morning when I realized that I hurt my ankle. Really badly, too. So bad, that I called Sandra and she drove me to the ER because I was afraid I had broken it. Fortunately, I only sprained it and am the proud owner of a pair of crutches, 20 Percocets, and a $250 ER bill.

Cleavage and crotch shots; that's the sign of a good evening.

I like boobs

Sandra said...

$12.50 a percocet, that's highway robbery.

Sandra- actually, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that Perc costs $3.75 for 20, but I know what you mean.

I was just thinking the other day how no one has raves anymore.

Melissa said...

I'm mad and sad that I missed the rave.

The only place around here, you can get bacon like that is at a butcher's or a hog roast. Good job on the boobs.
