REMEMBER TO VOTE, YOU GUYS.

Favorite Beer Selection:
Favorite Specialty Drink Selection:
Favorite Entertainment (entertainers & activities)
Favorite Staff:
Favorite Food:
Favorite Overall:

and then 3 'off-center' light hearted , "Bar most likely to...." or "Bar that..." superlative awards.

Can we get an updated set of "rosters" or a dedicated faux-Yelp review page? Would make comparisons easier.

Although, I probably plan to spread my votes around, one to each (if possible).

Ya, I'll throw something together.

Can you or can you not vote for yourself?


No, you can't vote for yourself. If you vote for yourself in any category I will throw out your ballot
You're gonna print my ballot off, crumple it up, and deposit it in a responsible fashion?

Right. Tell me another one, Gepetto.

I guess I'd probably just delete it from my inbox

Finally, the TRUTH! What else has our 'commissioner' been hiding?! Like, what did he do with Rondo2287's body? #Justaskinquestions

I was sick of splitting all the awesome perks of being commissioner with him, so we had a battle dome.

2 men entered. I left.

I'm going to do a thread with rosters and yelp reviews, would appreciate it if no one commented on it so we could keep it clean.

Fake Yelp Review

Quote

(Aug 25, 2021)- Waking up with the taste of Newports in my mouth and stinking of Pepe Lopez from my night at the bingo parlor, I dragged myself out of bed and decided that I needed to re-evaluate things.

The Q-Tips and their wild shenanigans at Bingo night were getting too much for me.  I couldn't keep up with ol' Charley's ice-luging skills anymore and it pained me to see Estelle with another man. 

I needed to find a new, hipper place to take out my aggressions.

Enter "Donaghys".

I walked into this place on a Friday night and the place was bumping with hipsters, bikers, felons, power drinkers, and trustees of modern chemistry.  Luckily, this bouncer fella who lives by the motto "Take the biggest guy in the world, shatter his knee and he'll drop like a stone" keeps the place in line.

Bellying up to the bar, my eyes caught hold of the most beautiful woman walking this green earth; a true angel in leather pants and halter top slinging white russians left & right. She slides a white russian down to me and pours two of these lunchbox shots.  Pure bliss streamed down my throat and the good bartender and I each took one to the dome.  I thanked the dear lady and went on my way.


To my utter amazement, this place had multiple cornhole sets out on the back patio and, myself never being one to shy away from fun, asked a lovely young lass to be my partner and we took on a pair of Ecaudorian exchange students who were riding a 5 game undefeated streak.

Those boys luck had run out because the young lady and I laid a stompin' on them that time won't soon forget!!

Following a big "W", I asked my beautiful partner if she would be up for celebrating with some champagne...the champagne of beers that is;  Miller High Life!


We grabbed ourselves a table and ordered up some of the finest Texas BBQ this side of the Connecticut River; brisket, beef ribs, and plenty o' cole slaw.  We ate to our hearts' content with BBQ sauce running down the sides of our mouth while being serenaded by the rockin' tunes of Arcade Fire on the main stage.

Following another one or two(or ten) beers, I decided that this young man had his fill and was ready to take my voyages back into the night.  I asked the young vixen for her pager number and I disappeared out the front door, tipping my hat to Dalton the bouncer, with the soothing "Sprawl II" bidding me a sweet adieu.


5 stars.

Solid.  I think Dons and I are competing for the same crowd.

Beirut > Bags ;)

I assume this is some sort of bartender training conference:

Sweet pic.

Bags & Beirut tend to be 1A & 1B in my book.  Depends on the time of the year.

I got bags 10 times out of 10. Beer Pong is consistently fun, but  it's not nearly as awesome as bags when each are at 'its best'

Won't argue with this.
