I can never get my wife to sit at a bar unless I bring one of my sons and he wants to sit there too. Then she can sit between us and I can look at the back of her head as she talks to him.When I travel always seek out old bars in better neighborhoods, nothing quite like sitting at a bar like that with my wife and having a draft, usually sports on the TV.. hit run of curling for a while.
Was in NOLA recently and there was one of those neighborhood bars nearby, saw something never saw before, the mirror behind the booze was littered with yellow "post its", asked the bartended what those were for and he told us they were "IOU's" from some of the folks who frequented the bar, then he added a couple of them belong to dead folks.
My wife is a big John Taffer fan so I get stuck watching now and then. I recently saw one where he said it was illegal for a bar to run a tab. Maybe the law is different in NOLA.
