Mind if I smell that?

I love Summerfest. It's a great place to go and socialize with friends while eating some great food and having a beer or two. I was enjoying a tasty Major Goolsby's cheeseburger and an Leinie's Red while hovering with my husband and a friend under a canopy to save our cheeseburgers from the rain. I noticed two boys, around 12 yrs old, doing the same thing. I mean it, the exact same thing. Standing under the canopy out of the rain while enjoying cheeseburgers and beer. Wait a minute!!!! What? I am extremely opposed to underage drinking especially pre-puberty. So I called my group's attention to the boys and noticed that a few people were walking up to them and saying something but I couldn't hear what was being said. Finally, I couldn't help myself and went over and asked them what they were drinking. They said Red Bull and not being convinced since I don't like Red Bull and don't know what it looks like (without Jager) I asked them if I could smell it. It was indeed Red Bull. They didn't think I was weird but my group did. Oh well, I was satisfied :)

Uh oh. Bad idea to comment on Sara's blog. Now we're all going to stalk YOUR blog, too. ;)

Ha.

Also, "I'm just saying" is one of my favorite sayings.

hey! nice job on the hyperlink. :) and i'm still laughing that you actually asked those kids if you could smell their drinks. what would you have done if they were drinking beer?

I honestly don't know what I would have done but I was definitely relieved that it wasn't!

Krystal, this is absolutely hysterical. I would have loved to see the reaction on these boys' faces.
