4 floormen, "capacity" crowd",payday saturday night = CLEAN UP!

so we begin with a typical start up on a saturday night: a little slow at first while everyone is on their saturday night date, and just a nice mellow crowd dancing, saying hi to each other and drinking. then the flood gates opened wide. by 11:00 it was getting difficult to move in the building, by 11:30 it was a pain in the ass to get to the bathroom. they kept coming in, and i was really surprised that we didnt see the fire marshall in the building tonight. so with that size crowd, we had a problem. when you only have 4 floormen and 1 guy on the door.. you're kinda out numbered. BIG TIME. and we only had that 4th floorman cause one of the ex employees offered to help out. (Props to J.D. - we needed ya!) a lot of guys keyed up from being in the line of fire and in a high stress environment, guys who haven't been back in the states for more than a day or two in many cases, came out to party... not end up in a fight. there were some hurt feelin's tonight, and our floormen that were there EARNED their pay tonight. we were just lucky that it wasnt worse than what it was.


now with that being said.. all other things considered... that was a kick ass night! people were dancing their asses off all night long. and even when i played bad music on purpose to get them off the floor to buy beer.. they kept dancing! makes me wish i had had video of the night. all we gotta do now is turn the rest of the week into nights like that.. without the B.S. of course.


y'all come back now.. ya hear?
