When the lights turn on, you drag your feet towards the door squeezing every last drop from your bottle of beer. We tell you that the fun is over and it's time to retire and as you get swallowed in a massive wave of drunks spilling into the streets you look around and see - the floor you were dancing barefoot on is covered with cigarette butts and chewed up gum, the ashtrays are full and so are the trash bins filled with everything you thought the night had to offer. The smiling waitresses are all gone and you wonder where they went, the friendly doormen have turned into intimidating gate keepers making sure everyone leaves without any alcholic souvenirs, and the bartenders busy themselves with the daunting task of cleaning up after a 10 hour party of atleast 300 of you and your "closest" friends. Man, it sucks to be them. And the door quickly shuts behind you.

To break it softly to everyone else, you need not shrug, shake your head nor sympathize too deeply. The minute the meter starts for you cab fare home is the minute the REAL fun begins.

Mr. Reeves, club manager, referees the contest. Making sure every contestant is provided their own pie (complete with pie holders,) and provides a fairly crisp 50 dollar bill for first place prize.

One of the contestants, Mr. Burley, who ate his pie with true passion. Though he didn't win this time around he is determined to practice his eating skills, along with breathing techniques in hopes of being a contender for next year's contest.

"Scotty" I believe had no technique at all. From the angle I was at it was hard to see if he was even chewing or just taking a nap in it.

"Scotty" and his pie holder. The pie holder being more enthusiastic than the contestant himself cheered him on with provocative outbursts. She was very entertaining and it's rumored she is guaranteed an invite to next year's event with or without him.

We couldn't keep the media out when word broke lose that there was fun in the club after hours. Reporters broke the doors down just to get footage of Flashbacks after hours.

The contest was immediately followed by a staff meeting where, planning ahead, we tried to vote on who would look like the better Santa.
