What does that mean?


It means the same bar where I used to sling buds and jim and cokes at 18 isn't the place I would think ghost would appear.

It's being so heavily distributed that even the Tulane/Loyola frat bars carry it. Hype gone.

FWIW Fat Harry's was getting ghost last year this time. Bud Rips is even getting it now. It's gone total hipster.

They broke eight 4-packs and scattered the singles throughout the store at six PM today. Probably have 23-25 left.

Check the self serve Jelly Belly's and the olive bar. Maybe underneath some produce. Dig deep.

good luck

Parish should distribute the entirety of the next batch of Ghost exclusively to Calandros on Perkins with the stipulation that there should be no limits.

That would be interesting.

When you were younger, did your old man ever catch you smoking, then make you sit down and smoke a whole pack to make you sick so you wouldn't do it again.

Same principle.

These baws just need all the Ghost their little hearts want. Sit home, drink it every day. Get tired of it. Maybe buy too much and they'll let another couple of cases get stale and undrinkable in the closet. Others can do all the trades with everyone they want to to get Heady, Focal, Julius. They'll drink all the rarz, exhaust the value for Ghost trades. They'll brag to their friends, "Hey I got Ghost." Their friends will reply with, "Yeah, well I got Ghost too, so what?"

It's the idea of scarcity that makes it attractive to line up like Soviet era bread lines.

Without commenting on GITM or the truth of your statement, I do love the statement itself.

It works well with my signature quote regarding communal idiocy.

I love the Ghost threads. There is almost no meeting of the minds, and very little attempt to even try and understand what the "other side" is saying. It makes for awesome entertainment.
