The have started enforcing arcane laws that they haven't enforced in years. That is why they have been ramping up enforcment in mine and other bar owners opinions. They shouldn't be advertising that they are violating the law. Now if the bartender happens to be paying for those drinks out of their pocket that is another story.

Another nail in Ballard's coffin? Because of a snuggie pub crawl?

Old Ballard needs more to talk about than “the good old days”.

have you ever thought it's your grumpy “old school ways” that might be one of the nails in Ballard's coffin? Maybe there's a reason people like you are disappearing and things are changing. Thinning of the herd, if you will.

Still not true or accurate.
I have to know, and abide by, their rules.
(which change all the time)
It was a mistake to put the loft on the hook about the food for booze thing.
