I wanted a place to see a Habs game during the playoffs. Heard this was the place and that it could get crowded early. Was kind dissuaded by having problems getting in so caught the first period somewhere else. They didn't have sound and I decided between periods that it was the playoffs, this wouldn't do, so I took a $15 cab to Kilgours and was happy to find that there was lots of room.
Until the barkeep told me they were "at capacity". I pleaded and said I was one guy, it was the playoffs, and begged him not to send me out into Leafs nation. There was TONS of room in this place. He mentioned something about sight lines. Come on man, it's the playoffs and you turn away a single Montrealer who took a rush cab between periods to come to your otherwise dingy bar?
I guess the lesson here is that if you're in Toronto and want to watch a Habs game, go home to Montreal.
Oh yeah, edit: the Habs ended up losing 5-1. I blame you Kilgours.
