The ladies love JM
OK, well... I had no idea that Scorekeepers was the hang out of so many undergrads and so many girls. JM was unbelievably polite and sweet when we were sitting at the bar. He obviously is very practiced at being charming and he's actually totally cute--the exact kind of guy I would pay attention to if Jack were out of the picture.
If you hang around for a while though, it becomes clear that he is checking out the ladies whenever you aren't looking.
So it all started when these two crazy girls came into the bar where we were sitting. We were in the upstairs section, so it was the last to fill up. Two girls, very drunk, one in a tight pink dress and the other in this gold metallic shaggy thing--I have no idea what it was--came in. They were obviously drunk and very loud. Shumway was closest to them at the end of the bar and then Jack. The one in pink started teasing her hair with her fingers while looking at herself in the mirror. They asked the bartender for drinks of some kind in very loud voices. Shumway and Jack were staring at them with raised eyebrows. The one in pink leaned over to them and said, "I know. I'm hot." I saw them exchange looks.Shumway leaned over to Jack and said something like, "Those are the two most annoying girls in the world," with this incredulous tone in his voice.
The two girls went away once they got their drinks. They were the first of the college girls to make their way to the bar upstairs. Soon there were a lot of them, all scantily clad, some plain, some gorgeous, all way too dressed up for a sports bar.
One tall blonde number in a black shirt opened almost down to her waist displayed enough cleavage to support a shot glass and Jack and JM talked about whether someone would be drinking out of it by night's end. A cute brunette about four feet tall in spite of her three inch heels fitted herself into the spot that Shum had temporarily abondanoned and JM expressed concern that Shumway might inhale her.
I don't know how this started but the next time I saw JM, he was at the bar chatting up one of a group of hotties that had been there for a while. Most of the girls were much drunker than any of us were and they were arguing with the bartender to get him to put more alcohol in their pitchers of Captain and Coke.
A little earlier the bartender explained when he heard JM's surprise at how much alcohol was going into them, that he had gotten the idea when he'd been in Canada. Apparently in Canada, they would run drink specials on pitchers of Captain and Coke, but they would charge more for them. He admitted to us that the seven dollars they were charging was way too cheap but that it brought in a lot of people.
"So that's what Canada has contributed," I pointed out.
"World peace and big drinks," JM grinned.
The bartender was arguing with two girls about the amount of alcohol in their pitcher. "There are already four chots in there. I can't put any more in." He said this as he poured more alcohol in for them.
So anyway, JM was at the bar talking to this blonde girl. He caught me looking over at them and grinned in this way that said he was having a really good time. Soon two of the girl's friends came over and she introduced them to him. He must have offered to buy them all shots, because they stayed there chatting and then shots appeared on the bar. Soon a couple more of them showed up, all in these little spaghetti strap tops, at least one obviously braless. They moved to a table and sat down, JM right in between a blonde and a brunette. They were all laughing and talking and doing shots. JM was... um.. helping them.
It was already late and we had been there for hours. The rest of us decided that it might be time to go. We waved to him and he tore himself away. He said he had figured out that most of them were half his age and were not really the 21 that their IDs said they were. We left the bar because it was getting so crowded that we literally thought we might be crushed. After a walk around the block, we all decided to go home. We left JM and Shum on the corner of State and William. What they did after that is anybody's guess.
I learned some very interesting things while chatting with JM, but I feel like I shouldn't reveal too much. I will say that back when I interviewed JM, one of the questions that didn't make it into the final interview was about the fact that he never talked on the board about how to please a lady. He told me then that he didn't think the guys on the board would find that interesting. I pointed out that the women on the board would. Still I couldn't get much info out of him on that subject. But last night, he made me sure that he knows exactly what women want. That's all I'll say except, I was impressed.
