So April, Brice, Erik, and Myself went to the Castle in Ybor City, Florida Saturday night. We had originally set up for like 13 people to go, but everyone else backed out at the last second. Anyway, I am glad we went because it just happened to be the Castle’s twelve year anniversary and the place was crazy. They had fire dancers on the main stage and some very cute girls in great costumes on the dance boxes out on the floor. The club was filled with people and many of the costumes were just amazing. Two Marilyn Manson look-a-likes were there. There was a guy who looked almost exactly like Rob Zombie. There were girls in nothing but lingerie and leather boots and one girl had nothing but little pink X’s of tape over her nipples. There was also a vast group of various different kinds of bondage costumes and Nazi look-a-likes. There was also one of those wacko karate dancing guys there that accidently judo chop another guy in the throat, HILARIOUS!
Most dramatic for Erik and myself was a man probably in his late 40’s in nothing but a witch hat and cod piece. He was around six and a half feet tall and had a bit of a pot belly. We was pale and very hairy everywhere, especially his ass cheeks that seemed to always catch your eye was you scanned the room. He was also kinda sneaky. You would see that witch hat towering over the crowd from across the room one moment just to find that he is two feet away a second later. There was also a guy who thought he was Santa’s little helper who wore a green elf hat, a tight green shirt that was much too small for him, and a thong. Other than those two, the rest of the crowd was just a bunch of goths and freaks that blinded together out on the dance floor. Every now and then there would be a guy in a business suit that would stick out like a sore thumb or a couple of Latino girls dressed like they just came from Ragatone club. Oddly enough, I did not see one of the guys that seems to always be there as Batman, but his buddy that always dresses like Robin was there.
It was a night full of firsts for Erik. First off, he got his Castle cherry popped. Secondly, he saw his first “real” homeless guy equipped with a sign and everything. Third, which was also my first, guy in cod piece. And lastly, there was a group of about four black girls walking on the side of the road as we were leaving and one of them had no pants on. Unfortunately, traffic was just perfect so that we were stuck next to them as they walked for like ten minutes while we argued as to whether or not she had on panties.
Not only all that, but I got lost on the way home. First I missed the turn getting on the US 75 off of I4, but then I also missed the turn onto SR60 off of US 75 and went all the way to Bradenton and got on SR64 instead which took around an hour extra.
Over all, it was a great night! that reminds me, we are going again this coming Saturday, so if any of my intown friends want to go, let me know.
