Title: The Royals on TV at your typical crappy KC restaurant.
Post by: michigancat on July 18, 2007, 03:10:03 PM
Why does the above never happen?

It's impossible to watch the Royals if you're out with a group of people at a non-sports bar.

Because the Johnson County Yankee brigade and Lee's Summit Red Sox Nation has monopolized the television sets.  Either that, or they get blacked out some how?   :confused:

Examples pls of typical crappy KC restaurants

Outback Steakhouse, Pizzeria Uno, um, about any chain with a bar and TV's.

In contrast, Manhattan Bars always have the Royals on (ex: this weekend at Rock-a-belly and So Long)

whenever i go somewhere like that i just ask them to turn the royals game on, they do.  :shy:
i don't think outback is crappy though, i think it's pretty good for a chain.

i think usually the bartenders just turn the television on, turn it to sports, and get to pouring drinks.  they have no clue whats on the thing because they're busy working.

I think bartenders that can discuss sports with you are a dying breed.  The ones now just want to talk about Incubus and Modest Mouse.  Or what classes they are taking at the local community college.  Or how odd it is being a lesbian in Kansas.   :eek:

Yep. I don't care if it's a chain, or not truly Italian food, or cheap, or if it doesn't appease you elitists, or whatever...I could eat their breadsticks all day long.

Like I said, though, PF Chang's is in a league of its own.

Olive Garden sucks for any type of food.

Garozzo's is some of the best crap in KC for the price.  A guy I work with saw Michael Garozzo confront a worker  that was stealing by slamming his head repeatedly into a wall.

stereotyping italian restaurant owners?

the guy you work with could be a guy that likes to start rumors?

i cant see him slamming someones head into a wall. he would more likely cut off his fingers with a cigar cutter for stealing.
