I posted this a few days ago. But< I did not seem to take:

A friend and I were at a local bar, "in the Big City" in our freshman college year. Word was passing around about a party after the bar closed at a house (someones parents were away). So, we called over.

The party turned out to be huge. One problem was there was no booze. A couple of very attractive young girls took up the call, circled the room asking people to contribute to a "run to the bootlegger" Most contributed and I saw many $20s 10s trown in. The girls left on their noble trek.

An hour passed, then two, but no girls returned with any booze. We had all been hustled. No one seemed to know the identity of "the two cuties", maybe they were from a far away local. But, most folks had had enough to drink anyway, and it did not ruin the party. Looking back, it was quite a smart operation.
