Friendly Fish Won’t Stop Demanding Pets From Bargoers.

If you’re someone who’s obsessed with the idea of becoming one with nature, and you’ve never heard of a swim-up bar, I have very exciting news to share with you! At these unique bars, the counter where food and drinks are ordered is located at the edge of a pool or natural body of water. Inside the water you’ll find partially submerged stools and tables where you can relax and dine.

Those located in pools are fun, but if you can find one like in the video below, you may just have a chance at meeting some friendly fish. That’s certainly what happened to this adorable couple!

In the video, we meet a rather large fish who simply can’t stay away from this woman’s significant other, Jefferson. This prompts her to joke that “I lost my place to a fish.”

This friendly fish seems to prove her point by doing whatever they can to ensure that only they get love and attention from Jefferson.

Friendly Fish Wants All of the Pets

“This fish doesn’t let any other fish get near Jefferson,” she says in the video. “Look, he pushes all the others away and comes back to stay by Jefferson’s side to be pet!”

Truly, it seems as though all this adorable fish wants are all of the pets — as long as they’re from Jefferson, of course. And you know what? This woman doesn’t blame the fish one bit. In fact, she quickly becomes quite fond of them.

“Look at that, worse than a dog!” she exclaims before adding, “I’m in love with him. Let’s take him home.”

Although I very much doubt the couple actually took this sweet guy home, the memory of their time together will live on in that hilarious video — and in our hearts.
