So it was about 10:30pm at the time, and after we were all drunk we decided we could go for some Arbys. Hell, they are supposed to be open until midnight anyways.
Since none of us are able to drive and it's not too far of a walk we decide to get some exercise! Why not make it extra fun and add in some parkour? Normally it would take about an hour to walk, but we decide it would be faster and more fun to scale the 30 foot concrete wall behind Wal-Mart to take a shortcut.
We leave the house, stomp our way through the bushes and pricklies to get to the fence behind Wal-mart. Afterwards to have to make a couple short falls and scale some huge concrete blocks, but it wasn't too bad. Easy climb for most of us. The chicks with us beg to differ. Took about 3x longer to help them through it >.<
Walking through the Wal-mart parking lot, I pick up an oddly shaped piece of wood that looks like a Scimitar and me and my buddy decide to play some real life Road Rash and hop in a couple buggies to race eachother. Some lady slows down at the parking lot exit and rolls down her window. I'm rolling my eyes because here I'm pretty sure she's going to bitch us out and call the cops. Instead, in a sarcastic voice she says "I'm got your license plate!!!" and starts laughing and drives away. Sweet =]
We keep going and are just down the street from Arbys. The 'citizen patrol' guys pull up in their crappy truck and slow down, stare at us for a while, then keep going. I guess a couple 19 year olds have got to be up to no good 24/7 in their eyes anyway. A few moments later, they pull a U-turn and come back our way. As they come closer they slow down even more, roll down their window, stare at us some more, then keep going. Wtf?
Anyway, we keep going and are now at Arbys.
I've waited so long. I want to feel your warmth...
Without knowing, my friend pulls on the exit door, says "fuck it's closed", and we all start to laugh at him because he couldn't even get the right door. We head over to he entrance and pull on the door. Fuck. It actually is closed. It is now 11:30pm. Apparently only the drive-thru is open until midnight. A brilliant idea comes to mind that I've always wanted to try.
Some of our friends give up and start heading down the street to Tim Horton's, but we head to the drive-thru to discuss our plan. I am the motor, my drunken friend who is moving to Alberta is driving. Our '78 VW Rabbit heads to the order board.
Please let this work.

FFFUUU
Feeling defeated, most of us start the walk to Tim Horton's. We look back to see our friend poking his head in the opened back door of Arbys in to the kitchen.
Herro, anybody home??
In a drunken ramble he tells them it's his last day with his friends in Kelowna and that we came on a long journey to get Arbys. The Mexican lady nods and tells us to come around front, where she will let us in. I'm surprised she didn't call the cops instead o.O
YEEEEEEEE BABY!!!!!!!!!!
The lady at the counter asks why we didn't just go to Tim Horton's in the first place, and my friend responds by telling her we are actually hiding from the cops. Great... I think he had one to many beers. She plays along though and tells us we can hide in the bathroom! The staff there were awesome! ^.^ . Last out of my friends in line, I order some Mozza sticks, then suddenly the door opens behind us. I guess we should have locked the door behind us when we came in. Coincidentally, another group of our friends walks in, for the same Arbys craving. We chat it up a bit and get our food, but didn't stay too long because I think they were waiting for us to leave right away lol.
Some of our friends want coffee anyway, so we head over to Tim Horton's regardless.
So worth it. om nom nom...
We're at Tim Horton's for about half an hour, then decide to head back, where we end up watching The World's Most Amazing Videos and Cheech and Chong. Good stuff.
Anyway, moral of the story is Never give up, never surrender!
