Lead Sentence

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- Over dinner recently, Anna Peele recalls one of the first times she drank alcohol. "I was like 14 or 15," Peele says. "I ordered a beer and they served me."

I think this is a very interesting lead sentence because it makes you start to wonder where and how she got a beer at her age. You start to prejudge the girl before knowing all the facts. Depending on the age of the person reading the article, you will have different reasons for wanting to find out the details.

I think this type of lead sentence would fall under the anecdotal lead.
