Agreed.
Although another time I went for a bachelor party up in Reno all thirty guys put twenty bucks into a pot and whoever got a girl's number won the pot. I put my money in because I didn't want to be the odd man out. I didn't want to be there really. I was going through a divorce and really wasn't into it but I was in the wedding party. Anyhow, one of the dancers came up to me and asked if I was Japanese. She said she was "hapa" (half Japanese), she actually looked like a taller version of my ex. She was an English major at UNV and also wanted to be a teacher. I asked if her family knew she was a dancer and she said that her mom knew but her dad would disown her. She already owned her house and was in the process of buying a four unit rental unit with the money she was making. Anyhow, we talked off and on all night (she had to make her living) and I told her my life problems and at the end of the night she walked over, gave me a hug, and slipped her number into my back pocket and whispered "call me, I have questions about teaching." I was in a funk and didn't think anything of it but when we got back to a bar the boys were trying to find out if there were any winners and if not, they were going to bet the money on roulette to try to parlay it into dinner money for the group. I didn't say anything but the groom to be walked over and grabbed the slip out of my back pocket and said "I saw that hot Asian dancer slip this in Gary's pocket!"
So yeah, I won $600.00 for telling a stripper my sad story. Just about all of it went to paying a round of drinks but it was a good time.
She is now married with three children and living in Springfield, CO and teaches at a Junior college. I still get a Christmas card every year
