This is a question Drunk Parents

Watching the old man swing home from the pub and start arguing with Newsnight can be either funny, slightly unnerving or just plain terrifying. Tell us about daft things parents have done while they've been in their cups.

Not my parents
A good friend of mine back home has an incredibly alcoholic dad. Now, my friend is a bit odd--if you've ever seen King of the Hill, he's sort of a Joseph Gribble. His dad is a fair complexion man of English descent, and his mom is a fair-haired Ukrainian. His sister is about equal. My friend, however, is black haired and dark skinned, and could probably pass as Latino or Native.

Anyway, his dad is kind of a bizarre guy. For his 18th birthday, his dad took him to a strip club. I'm not sure about other countries, but in Canada, strippers are allowed to get totally naked. A bit more background, Canada has a one-dollar and two-dollar coin, so a bit of pocket change can be quite a handsome sum of money. A two-dollar coin is just over one pound. On the other hand, this makes dealing with this sort of money a bit cumbersome, especially when you don't have any pockets to store them.

So there they were in the strip club getting drunk, when one of the strippers started a very painful sounding game. She would wedge a two-dollar coin into her vertical smile, and audience members were invited to flick more two-dollar coins at it, the point of the game being to knock the first coin out.

So my friend took his turn, and managed to dislodge the coin. His dad proudly congratulated him for being the winner, and set to collecting the coins off the stage. The bouncers tried to stop him, but he said his son won, so they won all the money lying on the stage. Money that the stripper had, to any sensible person, been earned by the stripper for getting large coins flicked at her underside. But my friend's dad was adamant.

My friend, for his 18th birthday, got forcefully ejected alongside his dad for basically stealing from a stripper.
