Plus a bunch of Theta Chi guys who I told about my plan started saving theirs sometime that winter too, so nobody paid for a thing that day. We were handing out free pitchers to anyone we remotely knew and played flip cup for a few hours on the house. I don't remember them being around long after that.
    Some say it's a backward place. Narrow minds on a narrow way, but I make it a point to say. That that's where I come from.

    We did something similar. I think every hoarded them and then would pay off big bar tabs with them.

    The owner is talking on 790 radio right now! $1,350,000 was the cost. He said he received $900,000 from the insurance company. The previous staff is all returning except for one person! Some of the table tops will be exactly the same with carvings into the tables, that was done up to 40 years ago.
    (He also said he received a new kidney in January!)

    One of the old managers is managing Barcode. I'd assume that is the one not returning.

    $450,000 for a needed update is not a bad deal at all! I am sure it will still be scuzzy enough for TAB.

    You have to really take care of the people who know where all the bodies are buried. <-- not really bodies, just people willing to work for him knowing what he is like.

    I know of at least one waitress that is not returning either.
