What was the strangest night out you ever had?

gifted · 17-11-2013 05:02PM #1

A few years back I went into cork city for a few beers and ended up meeting this woman in a bar, was yapping away to her for a while and ended up walking her home ( ****ing miles by the way ). On the way to her place she told me she had a baby and he would be home soon ( this was around 1-30 ish ). Told her no bother blah blah usual bull.

Got back to her place and my god but she lived in a rough spot, top floor in the old flats in Togher, the remains of a fire at the end of the stairs, no lift FFS. Finally got up the stairs and she told me to wait in the front room while she went in to change. Great stuff I says to myself, 5 mins later out she marched with a hoodie on her and a pair of jeans and she started putting on a pair of doc martins boots. What the **** is goin on here I says to myself so i kinda asked her gently ( they were big boots ). Told me she had to take the dog for a walk.

So there I am, 2ish at this stage and we're walking an effing mutt around one of the roughest places in Cork, ****ting I am but kept telling myself that it would be worth it. Got back to her place at last, put the mutt into the kitchen and getting ready to make the move when ding dong, her baby arrives home. The baby was around 6 foot 4 with a beard and was looking at me very strange but not half as strange as I was looking at him. She introduced me to her son and then said thanks very much and before I knew it, I was standing outside her flat on me todd, scratching me head and not a taxi to be seen.

Definetly the strangest night I ever had

One time I went out to the shops to get milk and ended up running for election in Cambodia.

Not my strangest one but....went for "one" and ended up in Bono's garden, stealing a security camera and selling it to a Spanish chick.

4 nights in amsterdam has left me with fond memories and emotional scars. nearly getting beat up by a pimp sounds like a story from a comedy movie but hey.. great craic :P

This one time I ended up out-out, but I didn't even go out, I just popped out.

It's almost a cliché at this stage it happens so much.

I approached a girl in a nightclub once and she actually engaged in conversation with me. That was really strange.

One morning, several years ago, and after a particularly overindulgent night out in Galway City — the details of which are more than a little foggy — I woke up in a kennel about a mile or so west of Moycullen (which is itself about 10 miles west of Galway City). My drunk-radar, which normally takes me home safely, must have been badly misfiring that night.

Frynge · 17-11-2013 06:04PM

Out for a few social bevvies one night and the next morning I woke up ordained and making love to a fire extinguisher.

Me & 3 friends fancied a night out in the city centre for a change. Taxi home was 80 then. Said we'd get the train in and keep €20 each seperate to get home.

Had a good night, came out of the club but every single driver didn't wanna take a fare to Drogheda, most offered their card and said call back in an hour or so.

Getting fed up me and 1 other fella told the other 2 to wait (they were pretty drunk) and we'd try find a taxi to take us. Found one eventually (getting late by then anyway) went back to collect the lads and there they are scoffing chips, kebabs, burgers, fizzy drinks..

"Where'd youse get the money for those?" I asked. Yep, tw#ts had spent the taxi money on food! Taxi driver was hardly gonna bring us for half price, and we were all broke students/apprentices with no more money.

Ended up getting onto the railway tracks at Tara st and walking 30+ miles home. Think it was 11am or so when we got home. Never again

Done something like that before but 5 miles is not near as bad.

Have walked the distance from the city centre back to Bray a few times, though it wouldn't be the maddest night out I've had.

Probably a toss-up between two I can think of.

In Vienna, me and a friend ended the night in a Russian mafia-owned after-hours bar with free Red Bull and jaegers in front of us. It all started after the bar we were in started closing down and outside we'd asked a guy for a smoke. He was a massive ****er in height and build. He pulled the smokes out of a cigarette box with Cyrillic writing on it and then offered to sell us some for a ridiculously cheap price. He explained that his family smuggled cigarettes from one of those Islamic Russian republics.

Next thing we knew, he'd dragged us into a bar and put some drinks in front of us before disappearing. It was a well dodgy place. Very dark and dingy with strobe lights and girls dancing about. Everyone else in the place was a spitter for the guy that'd led us in. As soon as me and my mate copped on to how dodgy this place could be, we legged it.

Another time, I was threatened by a Moroccan drug dealer in Sevilla. I'd bought some weed and coke off him but I didn't have enough money on me (which was a lie) so had to convince him that I'd come back to the same bar the next night to pay him the rest (even though I didn't live there and I knew I was leaving the next morning. Anyway, later that night I went back out to smoke and he came up to me. He'd seen me buying a drink so he knew I had more money then I'd let on. I told him no then he said "I have a gun in my pants" before laughing hysterically and telling me he was joking. At this point, he looked around, lifted his shirt and made sure I saw the gun he had tucked into his pants.

Needless to say I paid up, went inside, found my friends and we got the hell out of that place.

New Year's Eve in Sarajevo.

Start the night with a few quiet beers in a bar downtown. Go for a piss and my mate is chatting up an absolute stunner. She wanders off for a bit and he tells me she is a Playboy scout so is off chatting up a few girls. He also tells me she's a former Playmate. Quick google and he's found her pics online.

She eventually wanders back over and sit down for a beer. She also introduces her brother, who we buy a beer for as well. Brother tells us his life history which involves fighting in the Serbian army rather than die after he is captured as a Croat soldier. He tell us some really really fucked stories of the mass genocide. He's clearly an utter nutjob now.

Mate wants to stick around as he thinks he's in with the former Playmate. I get stuck with loony brother to babysit who is obviously trying to cockblock my mate. Everytime we go out for a smoke he's us following pretty close, hugging us (pickpocketing us) and suggesting we go to another party. I'm ok with the pickpocketing as I have couple of pretty worthless notes in my pocket - the rest is the night out money in my moneybelt and the emergency ATM card is in my shoe. We are seriously getting to the point where we feel we are being set up by this brother/sister duo, if indeed they are brother/sister at all, for being robbed and probably killed.

We make a decision at midnight, go out on the street and try to lose them in the mayhem and fireworks. We succeed only for my mate to almost get arrested for throwing firecrackers. I manage to convince the cop he's just drunk and I'm taking him back to the hotel and we leg it. We run into the couple around the next street. Fuck! Now we have to dodge them after they greet us like long-lost friends and insist we go party with them. We get to a sidestreet, look at each other and run like crazy back to the hotel.

I think we had a close call. Sarajevo is great, go visit

On Friday night I went out on an impromptu mess of a night and what was supposed to have been a civilised dinner, turned into trolling an old woman in a hotel after the residence bar closed, all was going well until she told me hitler was insane and for the Craic, I disagreed with her. I was not expecting her reaction, she freaked out all up in my bidniz, I thought she was on the verge of tears. Then I went home, completly wrote off, didn't have my house key so dragged a ladder around to the back of the house and climbed in through my brothers bedroom window, busting my ankle in the process. In a dress. Carrying my shoes.

Was a pretty strange night over all

I've visited Sarajevo twice. Would you like to see my holiday pics or the reservation emails?

Jasus you're a well prepared man.

Your story kind of reminds me of the film In Bruges, where the attractive girl is used to lure unsuspecting tourists so they can rob them.

Don't feed the trolls, man. There's too many users of boards that haven't left the comfort of their Mammy's house, never mind a decent party.

I have some pretty decent stories from home and abroad but wouldn't bother sharing tbh, as you'll just have the usual replies. And tbh, some of the stories i'd have to tell... if someone told them to me, i'd be calling BS... you just had to be there

Although not patriculary stange but I was out in Dingle for new years, several sambucas etc later I was doing WWE type wrestling moves on a stack of next day papers outside a petrol station. It was like I had taken some acid or something I was totally out of control, I had to be dragged away from them in the end.

I went out in Dublin and woke up in Sligo. Besides that, my night was actually pretty tame.

poundapunnet · 17-11-2013 09:21PM

Some hippie party that had hash brownies and four year olds with inattentive parents, bad combination, jesus, still hate thinking about that. Had brought a few of my more scobie looking friends along to it as well and one of them took the drumming circle like a duck to water, very strange sight.

Seachmall · 17-11-2013 10:53PM

I went to a mates house to have a few quiet ones and a bit of banter.

I woke up the next morning on the roof of the local school and a €40 bill for a phone psychic.

Mate said I told him I was going out to buy smokes and never returned.

WoollyRedHat · 17-11-2013 11:00PM

I ended up sleeping in a lift one night. That has to be up there (or down there).

What was the strangest night out you ever had?
