This past week, I was witness to a cute, albeit short, tickle events I have ever seen. Unfortunately, the event occurred at a campground later in the evening, so without much light, I guess I didn't actually "witness" it, but there was definitely enough dialogue for it to be worth mentioning
So I should admit that I am not 100% sure who was being tickled. What I DO know is that there were three women there: a mom (she later identified herself as being early 40s at another event), her teenage daughter (she identified herself as being 18 at another event), and another blonde woman (I'd guess 30ish - she was only visiting and left later that night). It could have been ANY of them.
I do know, however, that the prime instigator was the dad, though I am not sure what actually led up to the tickling. I heard the dad yell out (obviously aided by a few beverages), "You wanna know who has the stinkiest feet? Your mom. Your mom's feet are stinky." [Side note - after seeing/speaking with the mom later in the week, I'd highly doubt that]. But the man was clearly drunk and kept saying it over and over, and as we are wont to do, I kept an open ear in case anything happened.
And happened it did.
All of a sudden, our area of the campground filled up with enormous laughter. No screaming. No yelling. No pleading. Just pure, 100% laughter. And it went on and on and on and on... And at one point, I heard another female say, "Oh my god! She always said her feet weren't ticklish!" And the drunk dad yelled, "Well she's been lying to you all this time" and continued tickling and the laughter continued. It was honestly one of the.. purest.. laughters I have ever heard.
So I am not entirely sure whose laughter it was.. My money is on the mom, as the dad was making reference to her feet a little while ago and seemed to be an "expert" on her ticklish status... And the voice saying the "OMG She always said her feet weren't ticklish" was either the 30ish year old blonde or the mom. But.. The daughter was more tomboyish (though cute), and I could see her as being more likely to hide any ticklishness. And the topic of conversation had been "stinky feet" for some reason, so it's entirely possible that someone else's feet were also in the direct line of attack. Plus - and this is all just speculation on my part - it just seemed much more likely that if the mom were the one who was that ticklish, people would have known; she just seemed that way. The daughter, on the other hand, seemed like someone much more likely to try to hide it. Also, for what it's worth, the daughter always wore shoes and socks for the remainder of the trip..
One thing is for sure, though.. Based on the laughter, whoever was getting tickled was certainly one of the most ticklish people I have ever heard. As I said, she couldn't even get words out to beg or to say "stop" or anything. It definitely made paying attention to the conversation around my own campfire all the more difficult.
