The night that Brandyn Clair’s ambition paid off

It was on a rainy Saturday two years ago when Brandyn Clair, with 30 cans of Busch Light on his head, walked through the city for hours. Why? He was determined to find a party that night.

He had already walked two miles when he got to the party he had heard of, but things did not go as planned. When he knocked on the door, it was not a student that opened – it was the guy’s parents that were thought to be out of town this night.
About to walk back to campus full of disappointment, Brandyn got a call. There was another party, apparently a really good one. The problem? It was on the other side of town, about 5 miles away.
Yet, Brandyn started walking, not knowing this party wouldn’t be less disappointing than the first one.
“It was already one in the morning when I got there, and the party was all over. And I still got the 30 cans of beer on my head,” he recalls.
Still, Brandyn didn’t want this night to be over, and it was a call from his roommate that gave him one last hope: A party on campus that just started. So, he made his way back.
“I got there at 3 and partied until 8. Because I earned that party. I earned that party. And I drank all the beer.”
Clearly, Brandyn’s ambition paid off in the end.

    Good story, Jolina. I’m not sure I would call it ambition. More like perseverance, I think.
    I hope you laughed at Brandyn’s story.
