In college, you’re bound to meet tons of interesting and different peopleβbut who knew some of the most interesting of them all would be at the bar? Here are 12 people you meet at the bar.
1. The Token Old Guy
At first glance, this guy looks like he’s the owner. He sits at the bar all night and is more than likely a regular patron. He’ll have a story for any drink you order and have you questioning whether or not that’s going to be you when you’re 50 years old. He means no harm; just a wise owl full of stories (and by stories, I mean he’ll talk your ear off).
2. The Birthday Girl
Nine times out of ten, this person can’t find her friends and is usually a barefoot and tipsy mess. You’ll spot her in the middle of the dancefloor, dancing with an empty cup in her hand. If she bumps into you, it wasn’t deliberateβit’s her birthday!
3. The “Let Me Holla” Guy
Walk by this guy and he’ll discretely grab your hand. Give him your attention and he’ll ask where your boyfriend is, or why you’re not dancing, or why you don’t have a drink in your hand. Five times out of five, he has no intention of buying you a drink and most likely won’t. He’ll convince you that you need his number. Keep walking, girlfriend.
4. The Person Who Just Came To Dance
This guy doubles as live entertainment and a good laugh. The dancing usually gets more elaborate as the night goes on.
5. The Couple That Needs A Room
Somehow these two seem to forget they’re in public. You’re disgusted and slightly jealous of these two.
6. The Drunk Girl In the Bathroom
She’s usually drowning in her tears over some earth-shattering problem (sarcasm) and her equally and just as incoherent friends are trying to console her.
7. Your BFFE
Yes, the girl you don’t know from a can of paint. This girl instantly becomes your BFF after a simple compliment in the bathroom. Tell this girl she’s pretty and next thing you know you two are talking about boyfriend problems and making plans for Spring Break. You can almost always count on never hearing from this girl again.
8. The Girl Who Needs to Go Home
Alongside the birthday girl, she’s had one too many and can’t properly stand up straight; except it’s not her birthday and her boob keeps popping out and everyone knows she’s not wearing panties.
9. The Crybaby
She’s more than likely upset she saw her ex from two years ago hookup with someone new.
10. The Bartender
AKA: your favorite person. Tip him and he’ll always look out for you when you walk to the bar.
11. The Guy Who Lost The BetIf you hear a loud applause coming from the barβit’s more than likely because of this guy.
12. The Couple That Won’t Stop Grinding
He usually looks like he’s ready to go and you feel embarrassed for the girl.
