A Busch Light, please?

My friend, Tom, really enjoys cheap, yellow fizzy beer. He can usually be seen sipping from a can of Natty Light with a look on his face as if he just tasted the nectar of the gods. Often, he pronounces "Busch Light" with a rather French sounding twist, making it sound far classier than it really is. I finally got the story behind that:

Tom was on a Euro-trip of sorts with some friends, and they traveled to France. At a rather fancy restaurant, one of the guys asked, "Do you have any Busch Light?" The waiter replied, "Bougelet*? Yes, we have Bougelet." So, an order for Bougelet was placed. The waiter returned with an already uncorked bottle of 1942 Bougelet wine, to the tune of about $300 US.

* Bougelet (sp?) - pronounced boo-zha-lay

Now that's funny.

$300 - that can buy a lot of Busch Light.

That's hilarious. Did he drink the wine?

That's is so funny. Well, it wouldn't be funny if it happened to me, but since it happened to someone else, it's hysterical.

Busch light- nectar of the Gods! I don't really like Beaujolais very much but it's better than Busch Light!

I'm pretty sure they wound up drinking it and paying the steep tab.

that's awesome

I think i would have had to drink and dash.

That is pretty funny. I thought Beaujolais was supposed to be consumed while it's young (1 or 2 years old). 1942? I think the French were having fun with him... especially if he was in Paris.

They shouldn't open it until it's been presented to the table.

The French llike to take the piss.......

Funny! Serves him right, though, for asking for Busch Light in France.:cross:

Dang! Why would anyone go to France and expect to be able to find Busch Light?
