Illegal Petes in Denver - MAINLAND EDITION


We arrived in Denver the evening of Halloween.  Sadly our team costumes never arrived in time to pick up from Papa Leddy's house in Reno. It was a Monday so most of the Halloween parties had happened over the weekend anyway.  We freshened up at our hotel rooms and met our Colorado boys Kai and Nick for some drinks at a swanky bar with a wall covered in Jesus art including customer renditions of the Last Supper with the owners. Many of you nacho friends know Kai and Nick from their stays at the Chateau.  Kai also painted me that epic Uni-honu hat.  This was my first time hanging out with both of them at the same time. We tried to barhop but the town was pretty dead.  We made leaf angels and ventured from place to place trying to find something happening.  Then we decided we were hungry so we popped into Illegal Pete’s, just before closing time.  I decided to get nachos and do a spontaneous nacho blog.  I don’t really remember much about them and can barely read my notes.  Apparently there was a lot of tequila involved that night.  I made friends with the couple at the bar and we all did more shots.  The bartender played us Beastie Boys and we were happy drunkenly eating Mexican food. Across the street we found a bar that had a photo booth.  Exhausted from our first week of epic train adventures, we called it a night. Tequila.


$7 nachos

Shananigans (Too drunk to score) – PRESENTATION: Gave me a kids size, added extra love.  Cuica is the most helpful person ever, even the annoying drunks couldn't bother her. RAD: What I want toppings exactly the way I like.  Bartender and the bar top customers super rad.  Colorado tortilla place. LAME: Chips are thin, get soggy. TOPPING TO CHIP RATIO: 5, perfect because you make your own.  Colorado style = green chili.  The bartender Miguel played some Beastie Boys for me and we all did shots of tequila.

Howdy

 

They all look so delighted...

Shots with new friends, somehow my camera can capture the blurriness of my mind at the time
