Senor Frog's Incident Summer 2005

A major reason for this blog was to propose a story and have witnesses and outside parties provide their 2 cents when it comes to the people involved. A perfect example of a story would be the famous "Fight" at Senor Frog's in the summer of 2005. What I am about to tell you is the events in my words, Aaron West, a minor player in my opinion, but a major player according to some of the other parties involed. So, we are at a bar/restaurant in Old San Juan called Senor Frog's. Many people reading this have probably been to a bar like this. Drunk cruise ship girls, $5.00 beers, packed danced floors, plastic "yards" full of any alcohol you could think of. Well on the night in question "see I've been arrested before and know how to speak the language", Myself and a few residents of the great commonwealth of Puerto Rico went to Senor Frog's and had a few alcohlic beverages. I was drinking Cuba libre's or Rum and cokes for the layperson and I was with Adam Lane, Brooks West, Stacy and Brenda. The music is playing and it is my turn to buy the drinks, you see Stacy and I were pretty much the only ones drinking, Brooks, Brenda and Adam had either slowed down or were drinking agua fria at this point. I turn to Stacy and ask if she wants another drink. She turns to me and tells me it's my turn to buy, so I turn to leave for the bar 17 feet away. Brooks West asks me "if I was ready to go", I shrugged him off, said it was early and headed to the bar. Now at a crowded Senor Frog's getting a drink is like pulling teeth, you got 3 bar tenders, who don't speak English trying to serve 500 hundred screaming Gringos and Puertoriquenos. So, I get the 2 drinks in like 3 and 1/2 minutes, a personal record. As a return to my spot to hand Stacy her drink I get an earful from 2 people from my group, "where were you?", "we were about to throw down", "you ran away". I, with a surprised look on my face, ask "Run from what", I just bought drinks. I am then hurried out of the bar, unable to finish my Rum and Coke. We get outside and I ask, "What the hell was that?", "Why did we leave, my favorite Britney Spears song just came on?", I still had half of an $8 Rum and Coke. That's when I get a sob story about how six guys, who Brooks bumped into, made a fake punching motion at the back of Brooks head when he wasn't looking. Adam saw this and approched the gentlemen and asked them if they had a problem. I guess this is when they ran back to where I was and Brooks asked if I was "Ready to go"", which I wasn't, I was getting another drink. I say I never run from a fight. Hell, I'm sure I have gotten in more stupid almost fights then all the people reading this post combined. I am looking for a response to this sorrid tale of whoa, that was the Senor Frog's "Fight " of Summer of 2005. If you check the comments after this post, I'm sure you'll see other versions of this tale. I'm hoping some of the details match mine. Also, if you've ever seen me run from a fight, I'd like to invite you to write a quick post about it, or on the contrary if you have seen me get into any similar situations, please let me know. I am putting myself and the situation out there for the public to decide.
