Mickeyed Last Night

I had a mickey slipped in my drink last night. I work part-time as a runway model. This week is fashion week (in NY). Lots of shows, parties. After working a show last night, I went to one of the parties at the park in a tent. Drinks were flowing, lots of people. The last thing I remember was talking to a guy from Spain. I wake up around 4 AM on a park bench in Bryant Park. Clothes still intact, purse gone (credit card, about $150 cash), watch gone (which looked expensive, but I only paid $10 for it in the alley), and ring gone (that was worth $$$). I have no recollection of what happened. I do have a huge bruise on my back/shoulder area. I worked a show tonight, but I came home right after it was over. This was the first time this has happened to me, but in the past year, I have heard many other women say they were victim to this in public bars or parties. Very scary. I would rather you just snatch my purse and jewelry from me, than knock me out. Writing this, so people will be beware. It also happens to men.

Sorry to hear that that DFE. I got mickeyed a while back. It wasn't nice.
My sympathies.
Like you say, it ain't just the being robbed that is so upsetting, it is that some scumbag interferes with our drinks! Now that is low...

It's a dreadful thing for anyone who likes to just go out for drinks. Sure, this time it's a knockout drug, but next time, it could be water, or lots of ice, or anything.

How awful! And since the scumbag must have hit you on the back, and hard, why did he have to drug you too? I think he needs some acupuncture in a very sensitive place!

I am also saddened by your bad experience. What cowards these people are that slip these things into peoples drinks! You're right, they're worse than a pickpocket or pursesnatcher. At least they give people a chance to fight back or resist...

Sorry to hear about your bad night. Losers like the guy who slipped you the Mikey should have to get "loser" tatooed on their foreheads when caught (of course that's after we kick the shit out 'em). Always watch your drink, never accept an open drink from a stranger, and always party with friends who can watch your back.

This sucks. Someone tried this at my bar, to a drink I made. But the intended victim caught it in time. Not the person who did it though.

Did you go to the hospital to get yourself checked out? You really should, just in case...

Thank you all for your empathy. Lots of police were in the park when I woke (because of the shows). I made a report and they provided me with medical assistance. I did not have to go to the hospital. I felt sluggish yesterday, and my shoulder is still sore. The perp(s) also took my cellphone, the police are hoping they may be able to use any calls or attempts to use my credit card to apprehend or identify the culprits. I won't hold my breath on that. I have warned people that are working at Bryant Park this week about my experience. I also notified the p.r. company that were hired by the sponsors of the event. I worked tonight, but came home to drink. I am treating myself with a bottle of Bookers. I love bourbon!!!
