“There were eight guys sitting around the table, and then those two walk in and we are just buck-naked playing cards laughing with smiles on our faces like everything is like completely normal… it WAS the funniest thing! They were just like, “what the f*ck?” They full on had no idea what to do, dude! It was so good.”
