Soldier Orders 2 Beers Every Day Until Bartender Realizes Why

She had been sitting at the bar for a while and willed herself to smile through the tears. She came in every day and stared at the bottle, overcome with all sorts of emotions.

Greg Hammond was a bartender from Washington State. He often had to deal with bar fights and disorderly clients. He thought he had seen everything there was to see, but he would soon think differently.

One At A Time

Hammond had many ‘peculiar’ customers walking into the bar but had never encountered anyone like this before. A woman had come in one day and asked for two different beers. She looked pained, and so the other customers made way for her. She looked tired, too.

The Washington State Law stated that customers were only allowed to order one drink at a time, but he soon realized that she didn’t seem to care.

Day After Day

Hammond was calm when he told her she wasn’t allowed more than one drink at a time. He told her the same thing every day, and he could tell she was growing frustrated.

He would give her one drink, but she would still beg for the second. Hammond was respectful when he refused her again. That’s when she got up and stomped away, but he knew from the defiant look on her face that he would see her again.

A Man By Her Side

The woman returned the next day with a bullish-looking man by her side. He was dressed in army attire and a crew cut. If Hammon thought the woman was intimidating, this man was more so.

They ordered two drinks, and it wasn’t long before Hammond realized the woman’s true intentions. He started to feel apprehensive about it.

He Left

Hammond realized she had found a loophole in the bar’s one-drink policy. He had an annoyed expression as he stole glances at the soldier.

Hammond had just handed them their drinks when the man accompanying the woman got up and left. The space beside her was empty, and she stared at the second drink as her eyes filled with tears.
