/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>Otakon 2013
>scrambling at the last minute to fill roomspace after half my list jumped ship to pay half price for a mexipacked room across the harbor
>land a couple people from Cosplay.com
>total is 6, me, friend, friend's brother, and 3 people from coscom

Now, you would think that at this point that the people from coscom would be a problem. You would, surprisingly, be wrong.

>friend is from a catholic family
>never allowed to drink until he was 21, develops classic bro response in presence of alcohol
>he brought literally a roller cooler full of hard liquor
>spends all thursday night trying to push everyone to drink with him
>I drink a bit, realize it was a bad idea, vacate the hotel room and hang out with a friend for a few hours
>get a call
>"Hey bro, one of those coscom guys locked us out of the fucking room!"
>come back
>he'd pressured one of the people from coscom, a 17 year old guy, into drinking way too much, and left him at the hotel while they went out to (fail at) getting pussy
>dude drunkenly locked the door and passed out in his own vomit on one of the beds
>didn't find this out until hotel maintenance cut the bolt
>friend is flipping out, swearing he's going to beat the one dude's ass, I have to physically restrain him and remind him that if the cops get called, they'll find out that he gave alcohol to a minor in a hotel room in my name, and thus we'll all get arrested


He eventually calmed down but was butthurt through the entire 'con and still gets pissed about the one dude "not holding his liquor," even though he's the one who pushed it on the guy. He's cool enough 99% of the time, but if I go to otakon next year I'm either not inviting him or flat banning alcohol in the room.
