The Weekend Battle: Thursday vs. Friday vs. Saturday

With Thursday gaining such popularity, especially among college students, it leaves one to wonder: what is the best day of the weekend? It has became a three-way battle with this revelation and let me tell you: I know nothing about three-ways. And since I likely will never find out for free, I decided to consult my alter ego on this battle, for he has seen and done it all. I've decided to make The Weekend Battle a weekly segment, coming to you every Friday to prepare you for the upcoming debauchery feasts that you will partake in. But as for today, let's debate it: Thursday vs. Friday vs. Saturday.

Thursday
On Thursday, Taco Bell and Wiener isn't that Uncommon.
Pro's: Thursdays usually bring out the best drink specials of the week, even for suburban and city bars. Bars don't need help getting people out on Fridays and Saturdays but the usually ridiculous Thursday specials tend to draw a crowd. And there's nothing like a few $1 beers to make it feel like it's an early weekend.
Con's: Well, for one, most people have to wake up for work/school on Friday morning so those specials can really hurt the day after. Nobody wants their Friday's to be ruined. And getting worn down on Thursday night can make you look like a loser the rest of the weekend. If you're a pussy.

Friday
Nothing Like the Innocence of a Child to Pick Up Your Spirits
Pro's: Everyone's out and about. Bars are crowded with music. People are in the mood to party. The school/work week is (usually) over and the name of the game is leisure. Parties are "hopping" (do people s till use that word?) and bitches are bopping. Drunken sex is in the air. Life just feels better on Friday.
Con's: Bars can get overcrowded with loud music making it impossible to hear. People are much more belligerent and sometimes annoying. Getting rejected by a drunk person is a real bad blow to the ego. Drunken masturbating is depressing. Rarely any drink specials.

Saturday
I Think That Translates to "Boobs"
Pro's: It's your last chance to let loose before the end of the weekend. Bars and clubs are still crowded. Such establishments are usually open later on Saturdays than any other days. You can acceptably drink all day on Saturdays. More sports games are on to watch while out or before going out.
Con's: People often use Saturdays to relax. Rarely any drink specials. A bad night on Saturday can damper the outlook of the weekend. Spending Sunday, your last day to unwind, hungover can be frustrating. People are just plain drained and it often takes more convincing to get people to go out on Saturday than Sunday.


So, Who's The Winner?
Well, it can be relative but the eternal winner for best weekend day will always be Friday. There is that feeling on Friday's that Saturday or Thursday cannot match. Debate over and settled!

Enjoy your weekend!
