Home Again, Thanks To An Angel Shot


Finally made it home! Last night on the road was spent in Deadwood. Not a big gambler, but this time of year the nice hotel rooms are dirt cheap and the restaurants are good.. It is normally worth the little detour.

I say normally because this time was rather unpleasant. At check in I was given a voucher for gaming credit to recompense the parking fee, along with other discounts...

After cleaning up and shaking off the where I came from dust, I went to my favorite steakhouse, same hotel/casino.. I ordered my steak and it came out beautifully cooked. I mean beautifully.. the chef understands what blue means. While at dinner, I enjoyed 2 micro brews from Spearfish, just short ones.. I really don't drink that much, but I do like good beer...

When I finished eating, I saw a bar with video poker machines and decided not to waste the voucher and have one more beer before going up to my room for rest.

I sat down next to a woman and her husband.. At least she said he was her husband.. This is where things got really, really weird.. and I should note that carrying a pistol into a casino is frowned on and since I had no intention of leaving the property, I unloaded mine (I always keep my clip with me when I do this in case someone else gets their hands on the gun) and locked it in the room safe.

The woman I sat next to struck up a conversation.. she gave me a bad vibe, so I answered her questions politely but vaguely.. Was I travelling alone? How long was I staying? She was getting over snoopy and during the conversation, her husband got up and left. Shortly after he left, having drunk about half of my third beer, I got up to the bathroom and while there decided I was just going to finish my beer and crash since she was so weird.

Well when I got back to my bar stool, she was gone.. So I sat down to finish my beer at leisure.. One sip.. one sip and I got a stabbing pain behind my left eye and it tasted funny.. I drink bitter beer, but this was just wrong.. Me being me, if the beer has gone bad, it is time to go.. so I left it and stood up... about that time, she brought this guys over meet me, her new BFF.. Wait, what?

By now I am feeling stupid drun. on 2.5 beers.. But these guys gave off scary vibes, I mean.. almost evil vibes.. so I said, sorry gotta go and started walk away.. the bigger guy, grabbed my arm and said you cannot go, you still have beer drin. Now this man was so big, his hand completely encircled my wrist and left bruises.. Stupid drunk all of the sudden and danger bells going off, I said o. but I am done with beer, I looked at the bartender and ordered an angel shot..

I have never had do that before, but that was all I could think do. These are scary people, I am unarmed and way drunker than I have been for a long time... The bartender got it.. he said coming right up and very soon 2 armed security guards were at my side.. telling me the hotel needed see due a problem with my credit card... and they whisked away.. Once in my room, still reeling with how drunk I was, I still had the presence of mind rearm myself and just as put the clip in, I heard someone rattle my door handle... Now, I know I did not tell the crazy bitch what room I was in... but holding my gun close the door, I racked a shell into the chamber and said loudly, I am holding 380 caliber reasons why you do not want to come through that door.. and at least 2 people ran away..

Held it together long enough to call the front desk, they moved me to another hotel.. and collected my things for me... as soon as I was in the new room, I blacked out.. Woke up screaming at midnight with a night terror, like no other I have ever had.. Some tea and melatonin and I was able to sleep for most of the rest of the night.

When I woke this morning, I had a mother fucker of a hang over.. I DON'T DRING THAT MUCH!! What the fuck, I was so sick, I even got motion sickness while driving in the Black Hills.. That has never happened..

Sitting here, counting my blessings.. shaking my head.. What the hell happened?

Into the woods I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.

I do not drink to black out drunk, haven't since my early twenties and even if I did, 2.5 beers would not get me there..

Lesson learned, besides never going anywhere unarmed again, I will never walk away from a drink in an unknown bar!

I learned in my university years not to leave a drink unattended. To many would do things for the hello of it, like drop acid into the punch. Not is not the acid you clean your drain pipes with either.

F

I too suspect they drugged your beer when you went to the bathroom!

I am glad you were able to be safe even if you were scared shitless!!!

Glad you are OK. Sounds like they slipped something into your drink. It pays to be careful.
