Last Night I Bro’ed out

It was a typical weekday night

Just doin’ mah Facebook stalking while listening to some indiscriminate rap

My circle of chillbros hit me up

There was an event at the “local indie venue” where some Frenchbros were gonna play all night

I wasn’t necessarily feeling it

but I said “all right”

“Let’s chill hard”

Fast forward 1.75 hours + 4.89 Modelos (The New PBR)

and I was bro’ing out.

Panda Bear – Bros

All bros, chill and even unchill, gathered around the center in front of the stage…

This was no silly moshpit.

This was no raver rager (there were no girls dressed slutty/with tape over there nips).

This was not just another festival.

This was a collective of bros vibing out to some French Moombahton electro waves; dancing to the music, not to the perennial “grinding on hoes”.

Back to basics, going tribal.

What does bro’ing out mean?

Here are some entries from Urban Dictionary:

1. Verb: An assembling of men for the specific purpose of imbibing fermented or distilled grains, objectifying the opposite sex, and emoting machismo (typically involving sports related activities).

2. when one goes out with bros. bro+going out= bro’ing out

3. To hang out with other bros. In order to “bro out” one must be with at least 1 other bro in a social setting. If you take yourself too seriously or act faggy then you are not bro’ing out. If you are working or doing schoolwork then you are not bro’ing out.
