Irish Lion Closing?

- Start date
Could have an entire back room of inventory in four hours if some laws changed
I'm not sure the concept can work just anywhere. It's a unique place in Bloomington, which is unique itself.
Indianapolis had a great Irish bar downtown and it went under, along with its sister restaurant on the north side. Great bars, both of them. They didn't make it.
I've also seen wildly popular bars in the most out-of-the-way locations. You just never know.
I will take less profits and more free beer. And, when I walk in the bar, I want everyone to turn and yell "DAN!!!!!"

Given the way political disputes go on here where no one really has a personal stake , I can’t wait to see the business discussions surrounding money with this group.
That's why I need to be the GM in charge. I'm strict, but fair. And chicks dig me, because I rarely wear underwear. And when I do, it usually something interesting.
Goat.
We're doing some roadmapping and I've got a benchmarking call here in a bit. REAL FULL AFTERNOON IF YOU ASK ME.
Seahorses. Brilliant. Show that the males can have children. So 2024.
The Switch Yard (never heard of it) is going for $2.3 million. If we can get it down to $1.7 m maybe El Drado will buy it for us?

Don’t forget I’ll promise to come and 100% never come.
Diet Coke.
And there will 100% be a sponsored Irish Lion disc golf league (skins format).
Now that you mention it..... I don't know if they're open now for breakfast - I doubt it. But a full Irish breakfast is awesome.
You Cortez and mattndallas can sit at the end of the bar and make helpful comments
Who picked this music
It’s awful
Better than the booze selection
Debatable
i think your comment eliminated HIS breakfast. Either through not eating it or a more involuntary action.
Yes, I got that. Or my tendency to not check the board until after noon.
my buddy. soccer guy. owned a bar and grill. there's this old group of soccer legends about 25 years older than i that would come to his place for champions. and i mean legends. world cup players. hall of famers. one guy is literally known as mr. soccer.
well one day i went in for champions and their big table was gone and replaced with three little ones and they were nowhere to be found. i asked where are all the old goats.
kicked em out. wanted half price appetizers. drank tea and water. used up too many servers
i laughed for hours
That's the old Jake's.The Switch Yard (never heard of it) is going for $2.3 million. If we can get it down to $1.7 m maybe El Drado will buy it for us?
Switchyard had a decent 3-4 year run. Kinda a soccer bar (but not quite Uptown level).
Bit on controversy last year (if you remember) with them hosting drag brunches, and the local III%'s showing up. Not sure if that was ultimately the death blow.
Happened to the Fairfax down by the lake as well. Guy dumped a bunch of money in, was getting good bands, and then made a Bud Light statement that made national headlines, and ran off the lake locals. Just don't get it.
You wanna remake Jake's...w bands? 😄 I couldn't even attempt that with Dave owning the Bird. Too good a guy. Pulling for him. Hi Fi in Indy makes it hard to books the bands he once did, for sure.
Oh, that doesn't appear to be his problem. At all.
After reviewing last qtr results, I just dropped my forecast on everyone in about 5 minutes total. The ones who talk the most are usually the ones who are trying to justify their existence. I'm taking the rest of the day off and letting the poors argue amongst themselves about acceptable activity numbers.
#myKPIisrevenuebitch
I can't make head or tails of this so I'm going to guess you were writing
"my **** tank is on E."
My KPIs in no real particular order:
Cost per
Revenue per
Recovery per
Run Rate based on the third (we get paid on contingency primarily and I'll remind the sales folks of same).
Now, people will try to explain to me how 15 other things are important. I will review them and show them how they really are just a part of the above. Like cycle time. Until a client asks about I'll monitor it but I don't much care about it unless it, you guessed it, influences the above. Unless it's novel, **** off.
The tall blonde with teh drink turning around is PISSED.
I've seen that same look every time I tell a slightly off-color joke around my humorless wife.
She seems like barrels of fun.
Of course her guy behind her looks like he's preparing for the mounting position. Either that or so drunk he's using her shoulder as a stabilizer to not fall over...
I’m directing the reality show. VPR has nothing on us….we’ll provide the drama.
Nah. I killed last quarter and my 2Q forecast is on point. 2H is also strong. The other 3 OUs are behind, but have "great activity" and spent 30 minutes highlighting how busy they are and giving #s about calls made, VM's left, emails sent and proposals they've pushed out the door. I just laid out the numbers and what my team was committing to for the rest of the qtr and 2H. Mic drop. Off to the bar.
Switchyard was pretty decent, didn’t have food for quite awhile, only a brew pub. Maybe where the old Time Out was? That may be before your time.The Switch Yard (never heard of it) is going for $2.3 million. If we can get it down to $1.7 m maybe El Drado will buy it for us?
No Fat Chicks.
