I don't think bowling alleys will be able to rebound.

All Star Lanes (aka Don Carter's) in BR has done a pretty good job thus far. They've made sure to get all of the leagues back going strong and they have stayed that way since sometime late Summer. I'm still there once a week myself

I'm sure this has been mentioned, and I'm not going through 7 pages of comments to see if it was; but Mardi Gras will change in some way. Latoya will make sure of that.

Trying on clothes at the store



I think this will come back. I've been trying on clothing at local boutiques this entire time. They don't care. The only ones not allowing it are mall stores, but I think they'll get back to it.

It is way too much work dealing with returns, and stores who originally had "store credit only" return policies have had to suspend that while not allowing try-ons. They're going to want to get back to that policy.

Fine dining replaced by fast casual and eating at home, as most places will lose their fine dining establishments without tourism revenue. They were already struggling before but got mostly shut down for a year. They may come back somewhat in some places, but fine dining in small and medium markets that don’t have tourism may not be able to come back.



I don't know..

We (BR) aren't touristy and our higher end places are doing just fine for the most part, relative to other restaurants. Ruth's has been impossible to get a reservation for less than a week out for months. We tried to get one 2 weeks in advance and were told we couldn't even come at 4pm or 9pm. The new-ownership Beausoleil has been packed every night since they opened. Etc.

People still celebrate special occasions, date night, etc. despite covid.

I believe a lot of companies will allow people to work from home full time as they have realized how much they can save in overhead costs.

That is a great pic and caption.

I guess this behavior is out, too

It wasn't COVID that will have done it in. I'm not saying what though.

I tried on a pair of jeans at Dillard's a month ago. Like you said, some stores still allow it.

The stupid thing about that policy is that I buy the clothes, bring it home and try it on. Somebody in my house has COVID and doesn't know yet. Or I do, either way. The clothes don't fit. So I bring it back. What's the difference in the dangers of spreading in that scenario vs just trying them on in the room at the store? I don't think they really thought that policy through and are going overboard with it.
