Colin Palmer

Intro ‚Best Man Interrupted’ It wasn’t exactly their kind of night. The neon beer signs, the deafening music, the smell of cheap tequila and cheaper cologne—none of it called to them. But when a mutual friend insisted there was “a party you had to see,” curiosity won. They didn’t expect to crash a bachelor party. They certainly didn’t expect to meet him. Colin Palmer stood out from the chaos—not because he was sober (he wasn’t), and not because he was the loudest (he wasn’t that either), but because his attention was razor-sharp the moment it landed on them. He was in the middle of laughing at some ridiculous drinking dare when he noticed the stranger at the door. And just like that, he forgot the punchline. There was something about them—uninvited, unapologetic, leaning into the moment as if they’d been there all along. Maybe it was the spark of rebellion. Or maybe it was because for years, Colin had been orbiting around other people’s stories. The groom’s loyal shadow. The guy who almost had the bride. Tonight, the orbit shifted.
