when i am in the mood to stay at a bar for several hours, i inevitably have to battle the dying cell phone

if a bar offered the below power banks at the bar and perhaps at mounted strategic locations throughout the premises, what response do you think would come from the patronage?

Some jackass disconnected the jukebox (digital kind) from the wall last week at Lafitte's to plug his phone in. All songs were lost that were in queue.

I honestly don't see the upside for the bar owner. they have to buy the chargers and upkeep them…they aren't going to be able to charge customers a fee for using them.

maybe you should get off your phone and be social like normal people do at bars

dont you think a person might stay out longer if their cell phone is not dead?

the battery level of my phone has never had an effect on how late I was staying out. you can always borrow someone's phone, unless you're by yourself for some reason.

I woulds venture to say a bar is going to focus more on alcohol and customer service to keep customers in than peoples cell phones dying

if you're by yourself getting trashed while just staring at your phone all night, it's kinda lame as shite.

meet people, get to know the bartenders, flirt with chicks, etc. if you're going to sit on your phone all night, just stay home.
