| - So here is the scoop. We went there every Monday night almost last year for Monday night football. We would gamble for a while then sit in the area where the stage is and get tickets for drawings and hot dogs from the older gentleman (I think he has retired now) and then watch the game, drink beer. There would always be a full house in the stage area to watch the game. No good seats left.Well today we went back after going to the first couple weeks at Eastside Cannery. What a difference---in a bad way.
So we go in, gamble a bit, then go to the pit area where the manager of the table games usually is to give out the tickets. It was an older lady, very stern looking - NOT friendly. I asked her if that is where we got the tickets for the raffles as we were getting ready to go watch the game. She VERY tersely said, "I hand those out as you gamble!" I explained that she obviously missed us and that now we were going to go watch the game. She said nothing. Just a mean scowl. Not sure what her problem was. She gave me two tickets and said, "this is all you get for two people." Which right then made me believe that others got more. I was right. I went and asked the couple that was at some nearby machines, she apparently gave them 3 each. So the RAFFLE IS SKEWED towards her favorites.
I asked her about the hot dog tickets, since last year we always got them at the beginning of the game. Well apparently she DOES NOT wish to hand them out to someone for an unknown reason. She snapped at me saying, "we serve hot dogs at halftime and you aren't getting the tickets early!" Now I have never seen this woman before. I don't know what her problem is. I walked away. Maybe 10 minutes in the game before halftime, I went to use the restroom. I came back and there were tickets on our table. I asked the 77 yr old man that I went with if those were the hot dog tickets, he said he didn't know as the grumpy mean old lady had threw them on the table and walked away without a word. I should mention here that while last year all the seats were taken, this year, we took up two of the seats and one other person used another. Three.
I'd recommend to skip the old bitter lady with an attitude that gives her favorites and friends the most opportunity to win and that cannot smile and go to Eastside Cannery. The hot dogs are a dollar, but the pitcher of draft coors light is $6 where at skyline one draft beer is $2 if you get PBR otherwise it is more and $3 for a bottle of Michelob Ultra.
So what you save on beer at eastside cannery you can buy a couple hot dogs with. also the prizes at eastside cannery are MUCH better. They give out $100 in comps to the steakhouse, two free buffets, $100 in gambling chips for the pit, free concert tickets and more.
The ONLY bright spot of the entire evening was the cocktail server Nichole. She was a shining star. Very friendly, a ready smile, very happy to be there. The old bitter woman in the pit could surely take lessons from Nichole.
Oh! one more thing. The potato chips they gave out were stale. I tasted one, it was so bad. Like when you have a party, get up the next morning and eat a potato chip that has been out all night. I looked and the "best by date" was sept 10. I did show Nichole, but she couldn't do anything as all the bags were taken by then so none to take back.
They have really gone downhill.
