💯 STORY CHALLENGE

The Devil’s Invitation

Day 44 of 💯: Blackout drunk isn’t a good look, especially if you end up in the slammer. But it gives you a hell of a story to tell.

Fuck, I’d just stopped at that bar to have a whiskey after a long day of riding. But one whiskey led to another, which led to tequila. Soon the entire bar was drinking tequila with me. We drank old school. No pussy ass salt or lime — straight tequila in water tumblers.

After a couple of hours of pounding back the tequila, I could barely stand. How the locals pour back the loco water I’ll never know, but they do. I feel myself sliding off the stool, and then floating on air.

What happened next?

You guess is good as mine, but waking up with a tequila hangover in a Mexican jail means that I had a great night. Now to find out what I did.

This story is a continuation of this Whiskey, Neat.

Inspired by Zane Dickens💯 Story Challenge. Let’s see how long I last. One more criteria I’m adding is the stories will be self-published and not in a Medium publication.

Rocky Shores may have had a few too many double espressos and double Irish Creams when he wrote this, but those are what fuels his vivid imagination.

He is an arrogant, opinionated, smug SOB, as well as a hard drinkin’ and a hard lovin’ man, with a taste for the fast life. As he often quoted, “You only live once, so grab the bull by the horns and ride, baby, ride!” He is a teller of truths, even if it’s lies.
