Breaking the law

We went to a party last night. We all pitched in and sent two people off for a beer run. It was 11:30 or so. Little did we know that legal beer sales end at 11 pm. So our intrepid alcohol buyers were on the street a bit confused. Then true to form, a nice Argentine showed our foreigners to a bodega where they could bribe cops to let them buy beer. What a fantastic city. The portenos are always willing to help tourists. And illegal alcohol can be bought by slipping a cop 10 bucks.
