(my friend Carlos) | White Party 98 - The Craziest experience that I had at the White Party. I remember walking through the Wyndam Hotel in Palm Springs and there were these guys telling us to come over to a room. We thought they were having a party, but as we got closer, we heard these grunts and groans, which at the time, I thought was someone just playing an adult video really loud. When we got into the room we found this guy was having sex with this woman on a balcony and a bunch of people were watching. I was in shock and I moved back out of the room. I was with a bunch of my old friends and a couple of new ones. Anyways, all of a sudden, the woman started yelling at all of us, telling all of us to go onto the balcony. When we got there, we saw that the guy was on his knees and she was ordering him around. She told us to all look over the balcony and we did, as she pulled her breasts up, over the rail. We looked below, and we saw this handsome man taking our picture. Well, that was really weird, I thought, so I went with my new friend Noah, who I had just met that day, back over to the elevator and down to the main lobby. (Well, I guess I should mention a little about Noah. Noah came to our hotel room earlier that day because one of our roomies, Brian, told him to meet him there. He ended up staying the entire weekend with us, singing Opera to us. His father is a US Senator in the midwest. He was a lot of fun. At the time, he was going to a local private art school, kind of in the area. We also had another guy stay in our room that sang to us as well. His name was Trent. Over the weekend, we ended up having around 9-12 people in our room. It's really hard to get a room during the White Party. And it was a place for people to get some rest.) Back to the main story. When we got off the elevator at the lobby, we noticed that we could not really move anywhere because it was so crowded so we just waited for a moment for people to move along. Then the elevator door opens behind us...and who do you think came out...the naked couple...yep. She had the guy by his penis and pulled him all around the lobby. We just stood there laughing in shock and then we took the elevator back up again to see if we could meet up with our other friends. We ended the last night of the White Party, meeting up with the guy that took the picture of us on the balcony. He said that the room was full of the go go dancers and that the stuff that was going on in his room was too crazy for him. He was also one of the go go dancers. Anyways, he ended up spending the last night in our room. |
 | I thought that you may enjoy seeing a picture of the guy that was with that girl. We saw him again at the Long Beach Pride Festival. |
