Friday night, Dad and I went to Kilowatt. Dad was having a bad pool day. Usually, he would only pay about one or two dollars for the whole night of pool, versus the five or ten dollars an average person would have to pay for pool. If you win a game, you don't have to pay for the next one. Dad is sort of like one of the best players at Kilowatt. Of course, there are people who have more experience and probably play better than Dad. If we imagine a ladder of rankings for pool at Kilowatt, Dad would be pretty up there. Dad went into Kilowatt thinking that he would only need about a dollar to play, but he ended up paying five dollars that night. A bunch of people, old and new players beat him. I watched them play as well, they were awesome. Dad was pretty annoyed about it, but in a good way because he didn't throw a fit or made a big deal about it. When he was annoyed that people kept beating him at pool that night, he just had a bunch of "awww mannn" moments. A lot of Dad's fans at the bar who were watching him play kept shouting, "AWWW COME ON MIKE, YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS!!!!"
The next night, while Dad and I were just chilling at work because the restaurant was totally empty, he said, "TONIGHT I WILL GET REVENGE ON EVERYONE WHO BEAT ME." I was pretty excited and happy at the same time because Dad used the word, "revenge." Honestly, I wasn't sure if the word, "revenge" was even in the Asian dictionary. I thought it was pretty hilarious. The night Dad went back to the bar to get revenge on the people who beat him at pool the previous night, he actually did make a comeback with those who beat him. It was great to watch him. A lot of people watched him play and go, "YEAH MIKE!!!! WHOOO~" I think I saw like two guys cheering for him when he won a game.
Message to Dad: Aren't your fans great?
