Some bartenders are cooler than others

My regular dive bar is a sports bar. Bartender had BBC Planet Earth on one TV.

I think there should be nature bars. They’d be the opposite of most sports bars, with most people totally chill instead of yelling and pounding on the bar .

Or maybe not. I could picture people yelling and cheering at a chase between predators and prey.

As someone who loves drinking but doesn’t care about sports, I would totally go to a nature bar! Though I would probably be one of those people cheering for the gazelle to get away from the cheetah.

I think they call them climbing gyms

I’m sitting at a local brewery about a mile from where I work. Right now the owner is out at the bar talking to me and a couple other patrons. He has 5 Mitsubishi Delicas.

I love when you have a good rapport with a bar staff.  I miss the days when I went out more often and on Saturdays the owner would hand me the remote -- and I would turn one tv to Toonami on Adult Swim to watch Anime

Canada? It seems that Canada is where all of the Delicas go to retire and die.

Is a Moab campsite a nature bar?

Was nice being cool with the owner of the one bar at school. If there was an IMSA race on he would play it on 1 tv just for me.

Umm...I understand if you don’t want to go into detail but I may need a beer after the marathon next week so I wouldn’t be too sad to find out what brewery this is...

Trapezium Brewing in Petersburg. Not sure that you’d be up for driving half an hour after running a marathon, but they do good stuff.

Apparently during the decades Rainforest Cafe has been in every shopping mall you managed to walk right by.

You’re on the right track: nature is a bar (so long as you bring your empties with you)

we had a local brewery that would put Mecum auctions on for me if it wasn’t a big game night, but sadly their 5 year lease ended and they moved on to other endeavors....

Develop food allergies. You’ll get to eat all the nature bars you want  won’t have any choice not to. Otherwise you starve to death.

Damn. Probably won’t make it that far...then again, my sister is convinced we’re going to go walk around Christmastown at Busch Gardens the afternoon of the race (and she’s run one, so it’s not like she’s oblivious). They better have wheelchairs.

And speaking of Delicas, I heard and then saw  one drive through the neighborhood this morning and I’m hoping I can track it down again.

Where in the city does it end? Scott’s Addition has quite a few good places, and I know plenty of other breweries around town.

Ends at Tredegar, looks like we have a few options in Manchester on the way home  if I’m feeling really lazy! But packet pickup is near Scott’s Addition so maybe I’ll...umm...carb load a bit on Thursday.

The Veil is my favorite of the Scott’s Addition breweries, but that’s true for, like, thousands of other people. The lines there are always extremely long. That said, they are in the process of expanding to 4 locations. One is on Dabney Road just outside the city, one in Norfolk, and one will be  in Westover Hills.

How weird is it watching Planet Earth with all the noise of a sports bar?
