Colangelo’s, Strip District. Lunchtime.
A drunk guy has overheard three old guys talking about tricking people out of money:
Drunk Guy: [laughing] Yeah, my grandfather was an alcoholic, and we used to send him to the bar with ten dollars. He’d come back with twenty-five bucks and he’d be completely smashed!
Old Guy: Did you learn any of his tricks?
Drunk Guy: [burps] You bet I did!
