One of Daisy's craziest times was when she was a judge at a spring break wet t-shirt contest.

There were about 10 contestants and they were all flirting with Daisy. After each girl wet her top they would come up and rub their wet tits in Daisy's face. Though Daisy isnt a lesbian she does appriciate a womens curves especaily when they are very curvy up top. Its said that a few of the girls actually put their nipples in Daisy mouth. Feeling a little akward she stuck her tonge out and gave them a quick lick and then turn away laughing playing it off like a joke. Even though she acted like she was embarrased deep down she was kind of turned on. By the time the last girl got her shirt wet they all started chantting Daisy.

They were all trying to convince her to come up on stage and participate. She reluctantly said no but when the crowd started in on the chants she turned red in the face and walked on stage. Expeting to tell everyone she was flattered but wasnt going to join in something came over her and at the last minute she grabbed the jug of water and poured it all over herself. Though she thought she never would do something like that the feeling was overwelming. That day not only did all the other judges vote for Daisy but so did the whole crowd.
