So I went up to MD last night to play some golf at Bulle Rock with my father and g/f's dad. Had a great time, weather was awesome.
Later on, we met up with my cousin and his wife, we all were going to head out for her birthday. They wanted to go to Power Plant Live for drinking and music, ok I'll go.
As we are pulling up to Power Plant (if you have never been, it is basically a collection of bars with a court yard where the young crowd goes to hang out. typically a good few cops out there), there are about 8 cops cars with the lights on responding to something, so already i am thinking "great."
So we go to park in the parking garage and my g/f starts figiting around with stuff in the car after we park. Putting away her GPS, moving things around, wanting me to kiss her, ect. I am getting stressed and want her to hurry the hell up because the last thing I want to be is in a car, in a parking deck in one of the deadliest cities in America. So after we get out of the car and walk briskly to the other people for the elevator ride down I calm her down and explain to her the safety worries and she understands.
We sit in a loud bar for 2 hours where you can't hear other people talk. Fun!
As we are leaving, we see the normal drunking 20 somethings stumbling around. I have her get out her car keys, money for the parking, and parking ticket before we get out of the secured area so she isn't digging for it when we get into the parking deck. We briskly walk to the parking deck which is a block away. Pass two bums accosting people for money and as we pass to get into the parking deck we walk pass three young guys wearing "thuggish" attire and the radar goes off that it just isn't right. So I keep a watchful eye and pay the machine for our parking.
Get in the elevator and make it back to our car. get in, back out and am out.
As we are pulling away from the Power Plant Live area. I hear a gunshot.
I hate Baltimore and being at the mercy of street trash that preys upon the young and drunk.
