Holy Shit!! This was scary. Parked, got room #. 2nd floor. Started walking towards the room and thru my peripheral vision counting off room numbers. Had my phone glued to my ear as if talking to someone (old trick). Found a big guy standing in front of the room drinking juice and room looked empty. Passed him by. Realized it was the room she gave. Started doing theatrics over my virtual talk saying “wrong corridor buddy, hold the beer, almost there, etc” and in the meantime did a U turn ignored the guy and tried to walk right past him.
He started to block me in that narrow corridor but based on what I was saying he quickly realized i just might have friends as I told into the phone “i am passing room # xxx, so will be there”. That paused him and I left. Whew!!!
