Oops...
I was at the diesel pump today fillin the truck up.. There were quite a few people around, but there is a chick in front of me that I was eye ballin, and she was glancing back.. So I'm pumping fuel, then all the sudden a HUGE gust of wind came, which was odd because there was no wind period before that.. There was however a storm brewing...
I had my back turned to her, getting ready to put the spout back on the pump, that gust of wind got under my shirt and lifted it up to my shoulders.. I scramble to pull it back down, because I'm carrying at 5 o clock... I turn back around and she's looking back at me, eye's wide open and a shocked look on her face... I played it cool and said back to her " Ya know, thats just my luck, my shirt blows up, but yours didnt. You got a look at me, but I didnt get a look at you, thats not fair! " I kinda chuckled and gave her a smile.. She laughed, smiled back. Then I got in the truck and got out fairly quickly, I decided that I wasn't going to stick around long enough to get her phone number Figured it was best to just leave..
It was clearly accidental, not a thing I could have done to prevent it. If it was windy, and I didnt dress accordingly to conceal thats one thing.. I was dressed for the conditions, but a freak gust came from no where, lifting up my shirt for the world to see what I had behind my back.. From reading posts on here, seeing people say that if your firearm becomes exposed to play it cool, and not give the impression that your trying to hide anything.. Thats exactly what I did, and from the look on her face at first, then the laugh and smile after what I said to her, I think I did a pretty good job...

Re: Opps...
That's my plan. Act as if you're supposed to be armed. Too bad your line didn't get you anywhere.

Bunkins,
You played that one like a pro, good job.
"Act as if you are supposed to be armed"...I like that. Good way to say it.

Re: Opps...
I give you an 8. If you had gotten her number it would have been a 10.

That is a good one, but I think this says it better:
Act as if they are supposed to be armed.
