First Kiss... At a DMX Concert

Most girls get their first kiss in high school, maybe even their first boyfriends. Oh no, not me. I got mine at 20! at a DMX concert! X GON' GIVE IT TO YA. I would like to preface this story by saying sorry mom (most future blogs will contain a "sorry mom", because she is so patient and hilarious when dealing with me and my brother). This story starts a few weeks after Christmas when me and my best friend Sidney decided to road trip to Tacoma Washington for the Dope Music Festival. If there is a glue that holds my friendship with Sidney together it is road trips and a mutual love for each others sense of humor. Both of these aspects of our friendship often lead to the best memories.  This particular road trip is one of my favorites. We barley had $200 combined, and begged my mom to pay for a hotel room for us near the concert. Being a poor college student  isn't the worst thing in the world, but it's pretty damn difficult when you are as impulsive with money as I am.  Rent is due at the end of the month? LETS GO TO A CONCERT! The road trip its self was fuelled by coffee and DMX songs. When we got to our hotel we pregamed with music that would be preformed at the concert and cheap beer (this is where the "sorry mom" comes in). When it was time for the concert we arrived at the venue and noticed we were surrounded by 30-40 year olds. HELL YA, THESE ARE OUR PEOPLE. No seriously, we thrived. The only issue we faced with this concert is that we weren't 21 yet. And we really love beer. See the problem? This is how I got my romantic, memorable, time stopping first kiss. Just kidding, it was none of that. Sidney and I were taking turns talking people into buying us beer, for the most we could charm people into buying us beer with our killer personalities. Or maybe we just begged and annoyed them long enough for them to give in. Towards the middle of the concert it was my turn again, and I made my way to the concessions where I tried to sweet talk this gentleman who was around 40 into buying me beer. This man was balding and had a scarce mustache that every girl dreams of. His style was a mix between someone's uncle and a 90s dream boat. The lethal combination.  He had none of my shit. But after about 5 minutes of begging he saw how desperate I was and asked for me to kiss him. I know what you are thinking, did you really make out with this man who is your parents age for beer, are you really that cheap? yes, the answer is yes. And it was humbling. I got our beer, and the man asked me if I wanted to be his girlfriend. Yes that is creepy, and yes that truly happened. Much to his surprise I said no and left with our Coors Light.  I know how shocked you all must be I didn't take him up on his offer, I mean I could have killed two birds with one stone. Check and check. I ran back to Sidney and we carried on with our concert, and had the best night. The next day when I told her the story we laughed for hours on the car ride home. There was so much to that night I could sit here and write about, but that shit is too good to not write about in another blog. So yes, I got my first kiss at a DMX concert by a 40 year old man, who also wanted to go steady. It was the night every girl dreams of ;). Thanks for reading! and until next time,
