I couldn't have said it better myself

So I always wanted to sit down and document this story, but apparently one of my fraternity brothers beat me to it (Dell'Achio, I'm looking in your direction). Anyways, I think all of the major details are included, so check out the story here (it's also the second link if you Google the phrase "Donkey Show".

The part of my story not covered on the other site occurs when the horse-drawn carraiges to Doys Town split up. I was with the only two guys that were fluent in Spanish so I felt perfectly safe. Even when part of the cart fell off and I jumped off to pick it up for the guy. As it turns out, my cart was the only one that learned why the lights were off. Some drunk driver drove his car straight into a power pole, blowing out the transformer and the power for the entire area.

I also bought my cowboy hat at the donkey show bar. Some guy was walking around with a stack of hats. I asked, "quantos"; he said, "doce"; I said, "no, diaz"; and he said, "ah, ci, ci." And thus I purchased my drinking hat. More on that later.

Yeah, it's one of my favorite stories to shock and amaze with. I hope you enjoy it. So I leave you with one final question: anyone wanna go to Mexico?
