Roux House would be perfect. The entire drunk 3rd St. population would relocate there. They would make a killing in those 2 hours.

Could the OT take over BR government and run the city? Make our own laws and run this bitch like it should be.

I mean, they had a checkpoint after taste of tiger tailgaiting and the rodeo. Nothing should be off limits then.

Is this supposed to be voted on today? As in, I can wake up on Sunday and go to a bar if passed? What's the time-frame here?

good question .. everywhere i looked, it didn't specify a date that the new ordinance would take effect .. but i doubt it would be immediate .. wasn't there like a two or three month lull before the 11AM sunday booze thing kicked in ?

My friends and I decided this weekend that nothing good happens after midnight, especially if alcohol is involved.

The owner said:
quote:
Jack Warner, the owner of Happy's Irish Pub, Roux House and Walk-Ons Bistreaux and Bar, said the $40,000 fee "eliminates 99 percent of the restaurants and bars out there." Warner continued, "It's meant to help casinos, possibly even strip clubs, but I don't know if we as restaurant/bar owners could apply for a $40,000 permit." Warner said he wasn't interested in keeping his establishments open that late regardless. "Nothing good happens after 2 a.m.," he said, referring to the current closing time for bars.
