Close Call

Dillon and Eric were dumbfounded as they watched the drug cartel members fall to the ground, shot by a fellow patron.

They had stumbled into the wrong seedy bar at the wrong time, hoping for a wild night in Mexico City. But instead, they found themselves in the middle of a gunfight.

Mistaken identity saved their lives.

As the patrons cheered, the two friends exchanged a look of complete disbelief. They quickly mounted their horses and rode back to the border, grateful to be alive.

They never spoke of that night again, but they never forgot the bullet they dodged.
