| Magpies holding the Premiership Cup after winning AFL Grand Final |
Today was the Grand Final rematch between the Magpies (Collingwood) and Saints (St Kilda). I went to watch the game at Napier Hotel Pub in Fitzroy with Nicolas, Dylan, Nick (Dylan's friend), and Gabe (Nicolas' friend). We had a great time. We ate, drank, and played pool while watching the game. However, after the 2nd quarter we all lost interest in the game because the Magpies were winning by a huge margin. In the end, Magpies won 108 - 52.
Directly across from Napier Hotel was Fitzroy's Town Hall, built in 1863.

In the evening we continued drinking at The Apartment. For whatever reason I asked Nicolas and Gabe if they ever tried an Irish Car Bomb (1/2 Guiness with a shot of Jameson mixed with Baileys). They both had no idea what I was talking about so now we were on a mission to find a bar that could make one. We went into at least 4 bars before finding one that actually sold Guiness. Victory! They loved the drinks.

We stayed out till 2am then tried to grab a cab back to Laetitia's place. We waited in a cab line for over 2 hours and continued to wait. To make the delay even worse, the clocks shifted ahead by 1 hour so it was approaching 5am at this time. We ended up contacting Laetitia at home and she put us in touch with her manager at The Apartment. He took us home around 6am. Thank god for friendly Aussies!
