Here are just a few of the memorable highlights from the moments around the job I worked in Cincinnati.

1. Sat next to a rather “robust” gentleman from Philly who bought the our end of the bar a round while telling stories of visiting spring training in Florida.
2. Had the mental image of four 300 pound Italian-American men participating in rickshaw races from the bar to their hotel. 12 miles away. 
3. When they got tired they turned to cabbie races. Until the taxi got pulled over. Both of them.
4. Had 5 import beers. Paid for 2. Lesson: Cubs fans are awesome. Wait. Better Lesson: Drunk Cubs fans are even awesomer.
5. Drunk guy brought in two Crave Cases from White Castle. Told everyone in the bar, even the Reds fans, to dig in. Best Lesson: Drunk Cubs fans are the awesomest.
6. Walking back to my room, passed a guy who stopped to look at his phone… for directions to his room.
7. Crossed the Ohio River. Realized how far south I was when “McDonald’s” became “Mack Donnells”.
8. Was surprised when my cell phones and laptops didn’t explode when I entered northern Kentucky, as it’s actually 1897 here and those pieces of witchcraft don’t exist yet.
9. Saw a 350 pound woman wearing a white tank top exclaim, “That’s a big un, ain’t it?” when she saw her iced tea from a fast food restaurant.
10. Couldn’t think of anything funny to write for this last one. Poop.
