Karma's on my side

So last week my wife asked if I'd go to her aunt and uncles 40 wedding anniversary. These are 2 people I do not like that much, but to keep the peace I go. Now it's at an old army base that has no air conditioning and its 34 C and humid as ya get. So I get there and go to the bar and grab a beer. Tastes so good I get another. When I go to drop a tip in the jar I notice a 67' Canadian quarter sittin there. 50% silver, maybe 80% it's to hard to tell. Then notice another one. So I'm just standing there like idiot and she asks if there anything else I want. Lol. So I say"those 2 coins are silver, I'm a collector, do you mind if I swap them out?" She's says"I don't care, someone just bought a beer and paid with those.i have about 20 altogether, do you want those too." So I give $5 for the coins and $5 for a tip. Karmas on my side for the night.lol. I still don't like the aunt and uncle though, but great party. Beer was good too.

Mighty nice!
And several 1967's!!

You were at the right place at the right time!
When you got good luck like that, I'd push it and put a Loonie on the Lotto.
