The Talented Shot Girls of New Orleans

filed under: Stuff you never, ever needed to know

As a teaser for the full New Orleans Bachelor Party Diary (Public Edition), let me introduce you to one of the most astounding people we met: the Shot Girl on Bourbon Street.

(that's her on the left - as a shot girl, Dan would leave a lot to be desired)

It was late in the night when we met her, so I don't remember what bar she was at, or where she was on Bourbon, or even what shots we drank. We were mesmerized by her technique, and by the $2 shots ("Plus whatever you want to tip") that she was offering, and staggered towards her like bugs to a light.

Here's how it went:

Step 1: She deep throats a test tube full of alcohol.

Step 2: She lip locks you, shoving the tube into your mouth.

Step 3: You crouch and she arches over you, delivering the alcohol to your vulnerable system.

Step 4: She SHOOTS THE TEST TUBE up out of her throat into the air, and catches it.

Step 5: You stand astounded at her prowess and try not to fall over.

Here's the whole thing, animated for your edification (if you look quick, you can see the flying test tube at the top of the fourth frame...).

Between customers, she would shimmy.

It was an amazing shimmy. A hummingbird vibration through her whole body. And she looked calm doing it, like a dervish, like she was blissed out on the whole damn scene.

We love you, Shot Girl.
