Bartending the Football Team

The football team had landed with their usual tribal rituals. As they recovered from an all-nighter, a blunt exchange between a loudmouth player and the bartender held everyone’s attention.

Crafted to make a point, the banter delivered great entertainment. As quickly as the conversation surfaced, it evaporated from the minds of the contestants.

The chat didn’t vanish for everyone on the team. Scattered among the onlookers were those who could not get the talk out of their heads. How had he known? The slight window of opportunity could not be allowed to close. One by one they held it open and seized the bartender’s offer.
