the big e was so fun. it was an uncomfortable chilly, but that is new england fall for you. i actually enjoy the thought of this type of weather, but not as much when i’m actually experiencing it. the night was crisp with the aroma of fried food and never-ending flashing neon lights. i think i lost $100 over games, but damn was it fun. we played the water game twice, which has a guaranteed prize. we didn’t win the first time. the second time we thought it would only be two of us, but like 10 other people joined, which fucked up our strategy guaranteeing us a win lol. i lost money on claw machines, a ball toss, and another game where you had to roll balls for a score of less than 10 or higher than 31. my score was 27 or something. we ate hot dogs, turkey bowls, elephant ears fried in week-old oil, and an incredible side of baked beans from the massachusetts building. we saw horses, pigs, alpacas, goats, and chicks. besides my disappointing performance at the carnival games, tonight was soooo good.
i need more nights like this, honestly.
