Barcadia better have..
a real Missile Command machine with the full size ball(and not just be one of the Multicade machine's games with that skinny ball)
The Multicade machines should have the best Atari, Williams, Midway, Namco, Nintendo, Konami,etc..games
If I can't Track & Field, Alpine Racer, Robotron, Dig-Dug, Frogger,etc..I'll be sad.

FYI, George's is the reason I-10 goes to one lane East-bound off the bridge. Had there been another lane (as planned), Smokey would have had to move his bar. Since he had the stroke on the council, he was able to block that added lane so he wouldn't have to move George's.
Does he eat puppies and drown kittens too?

Drove by the other day and still looked like a lot of work. Might as well take their time now. They already lost the entire football season.

Barcadia is the George R.R. Martin of beer/arcade/hamburger joints

Yes, the owners of some of Barcadia's biggest competition in the city are current (or former) city council members (Smokey Bourgeois, who owns George's (and is running for mayor), and John Delgado, who partially owns several bars Downtown including Huey's, The Draft House, and Brickyard South, formerly Mud and Water). They have a lot of "stroke" in the area and a great vested interest in keeping Barcadia out. Heck, Smokey waged an all out war on food trucks several years ago when he was on the council, doing nearly everything possible to shut them down (thankfully, he failed, for the most part).
Dear lord there is so much fail in this. Those two mush heads don't have enough stroke to make each other squirt without using their tongues.
Read my previous post if you want to know why it takes time. And I didn't mention a lot of times people jumping into these ventures have relatively shallow pockets and run into money problems halfway into a renovation. This typically slows a process down while they look for more capital or find ways to make the budget stretch. It has nothing to do with politics. He's not trying to open a whorehouse that sells hamburgers. It's a fricking hamburger joint.

I wouldn't do that if I were you. The last time Moses smelled a bush it set itself on fire.

After talk of fap worthiness, I must admit I got a little horny about what I imagined the concept to be, but then I looked online and found this photo of the New Orleans location...
I'm sure it will do fine and dandy.
