Tonight I pulled up to an automatic ice machine and found a drunk guy trying to buy a bag of ice while his wife sat patiently in the car. I have no idea how long he had been there but I waited and watched him for several minutes balancing himself with his head as he tried to get the dollar bill to feed into the machine. I stood back about 8 feet to give him room but could smell the beer on him from there. After about five minutes I suggested the machine might be empty and told him I could drop some quarters in the slot to check. It was empty so he staggers to his vehicle and his wife carries him to the next ice machine across town with me following.
They miss the turn and I wheel in and purchase a bad of ice and am loading it in my cooler as he stumbles up to the machine. True to form he leans his head against the machine for balance and commences the difficult task of threading the dollar into the machine. I watch him for a few minutes because his stubbornness and tenacity impressed me. After I'd had my fill of entertainment I drove off and noticed his bag was finally being filled showing that he had accomplished this difficult feat. :lol2:
