I don’t know if these restaurants are in the states, but we have a palce here called Jack Astor’s (it’s kinda like East Side Mario’s, but more fun)
While waiting for a table, I was guzzling beers at the bar (I really like when I get there and they say, ‘it’ll be an hour’)
The waiter was being all cool doing ‘cocktail’ tricks with his bottle. (but not in a cocky way, he was very entertaining to watch)
During a bottle spin, he missed the catch, and I was all excited to see it smash on the floor, so I picked myself up a bit to look down. Not only did I not hear the smash, when I looked down, I see the bottle on the floor, intact.
He was right in front of me, so I go, ‘ahhhh, rubber mats!’
Without skipping a beat, he picks up the bottle, continues, and says, ‘Nope…rubber bottle!’
That made my night, I really enjoyed that.
