Brawl breaks out, can't get number. How to get it?

[The LadyKiller]

I was out with some of my boys tonight when I met this cute HB8. She thought she recognized me from earlier and is a friend of a co-worker of mine (who was out with her). She definitely seemed interested and gave me a kiss. However, when we moved to another bar later on, it filled up quickly and a fight broke out. I was in the restroom while most of this happened, so I walked out to see people getting separated. In the confusion, we couldn't find each other and when I eventually found her, a bunch of dudes were trying to hit her up (the ratio was bad). I didn't want to deal with all the guys and she was tipsy, so I let it go. For what it's worth, she left the bar with her girl friends and they were all pretty intoxicated.

Unfortunately, I doubt I ever see her again unless I talk to the co-worker.Once the smoke clears, what should I do? I would be looking to secure a number and hit HB8 up from there. I can text the friend/co-worker tomorrow, Sunday, to say it was great running into her and mention her friend, OR I can wait until I see the friend/co-worker on Monday, as long as she's in the office (her shift has odd hours). How do you think I should handle this? I want to lock it down, but not appear desperate.

I asked a couple of friends from last night what they would do, and each one had a different answer, so I'm hoping you would be able to help provide some clarity here. One said to text the friend, one said to wait until you see her in person, one suggested organizing a group hangout, and the other said to wait until I see her again, whenever that may be.

Wait until you see the friend co-worker Monday. As fantastic as you may have thought it was, tipsy girl may not even remember. Casually ask co-worker for chick's number, PHONE chick after work and suggest a drink/coffee/ etc.

Don't let you happiness hinge on this one. Booze and all, ya know.

This sounds like the most sensible plan. While this certainly isn't the ideal way to get a number, her interest (or lack thereof) will be revealed quickly - do I get the number or not?, which is a plus.

UPDATE: My co-worker doesn't have her number, she's only a friend of a friend. I did learn HB knows some other people I work with, but I don't know how comfortable I am asking them for digits. I'd likely be successful, but it also comes off as creepy. Our groups don't regularly hang out, so not sure when I'd naturally see her again, though.
