(EMCEE WALKS ON TO SET FILLED WITH VARIOUS PICTURES HUNG UP.)
Host: Good evening I'm Paul Dunphy, Welcome to the "Alco-Hall of fame". Tonight, we take a look at a tale of inebriation so profound, that they deserve recognition in this sacred establishment. An establishment located conveniently across the street from the Budweiser Brewery, next door to Busch Stadium, and just a few blocks away from the Pro Bowling Hall of Fame. (WALKS OVER TO A PICTURE OF BARFLYS #1 & 2.) Our inductees tonight are a true story of invention, for had it not been for these fellows, two of the worst pick-up lines would have never been created. Their story takes place in the mid 1980s in a tavern just a few blocks from here, and it goes a little something like this...
(RIPPLING FLASHBACK, SHOT OF A BAR, SUPER: "McGRADY'S PUB, 1985." CUT TO A SHOT OF A COUPLE OF DRUNKS AT THE BAR, SUPER: DRAMITIZATION.)

Barfly #1: Well what are we supposed to do now?
Barfly #2: Well...Uh, Ok I got it! We Flip another coin to see who picks up the coin on the floor, and then that coin down there will determine who picks up the lady.
Barfly #1: Fine, but this time, someone is going to catch the coin...Hey Barkeep!
(BARTENDER WALKS OVER)

Woman: (LOOKS AROUND) Excuse me sir, can I borrow your beer? (GLASS OF BEER HANDED TO WOMAN) Thank you. (PROCEEDS TO POUR BEER ON BARFLY #2, WOMAN STORMS OUT.)
(RIPPLE DISSOLVE BACK TO EMCEE)
Emcee: And it was those two lines, Both the "Ten I see" and "Lost Phone Number" line that helped make way for such other favorites as "Are you from Pearl Harbor? Cause you are Da Bomb" and "Are you a Parking Ticket? Cause you've got 'Fine' Written all over you" in later years. And with that in mind, we would like to induct these two lushes in the "Alco-hall of Fame". Join us Next week, when we look at a drink sweeping the country, as the "Alco-Hall of Fame" presents "The 'Mind Eraser': One way ticket to a Ditch." For all of us here at the "Alco-Hall of Fame", I'm Paul Dunphy, good night.
