| - Oh Snap of OLD..... how I miss thee! So, I USED to be a regular when I lived around the corner. There is ALWAYS great competition at the pool tables. Most of the patrons are nice and chatty. Drinks have always been crazy cheap and they have 2 for 1's.
Okay, I have been back twice recently. Here we go:
Trip A: I arrived after 9pm ready for some drinkin and some shootin' (pool that is.) The first thing that I noticed was that the bouncer guy was behind the bar making drinks. (This same guy tried to kick me out before because I stopped drinking after 3 beers and wouldn't order another. The owner knew me THEN as a regular and told me that I could stay.) Anywho.... I put that as far back in my mind as it could fit and ordered a drink. He made it pretty strong, pretty fast, AND I received a shot glass to which meant that I had another free drink coming... for 5 bucks??? ALL IS FORGIVEN.
I went over and marked my name on the chalkboard for the pool table and waited. Wasn't too bad of a wait, but bring your on cue... these ones need a bit of tlc.
I went up to the karaoke dj (who was also playing dance music) and requested a song. The first 2 times he didn't even acknowledge my presence and when he finally did, he pointed at his tip jar before he'd even HEAR my request. Last I checked, people EARN tips... shot pool and got tipsy for the rest of the night.
Trip B: Arrived with a good friend. She was loving the atmosphere at first. We ordered drinks (same great drink specials... never fails.) Same great competition at the pool tables. But..... unfortunately the SAME dj. Ugh. We went over to request karaoke songs. Found some good ones, she TIPPED him and we asked how long. "Bout 15 minutes" was the reply. An hour and a HALF later, she goes to check on the songs. He doesn't have them.... he doesn't have them? No. Huh???
I go over and ask what happened. This time I ACTUALLY PAID ATTENTION and this man was UBER DRUNK. Looking at the mixed up slips of paper in front of him like they were some kind of undecipherable code... I asked AGAIN after sifting through the ALREADY played songs and finding our slips, "how long?" He looks at me (I'm sure he saw 3 of us) and says "no more. Karaoke's over." Mmmmmmkay.
I went back to shoot my last game before we went to another place with a SOBER dj, and can you guess what happened as I was racking??? Yup karaoke all over the speakers. I used to love you, Snap. The security guy changed his tone and has been awesome since that incident.... please find another dj.
