I can imagine the behind-the-scenes strategy meetings resembling something like a drinking game version of Risk...having a shot of the local libation from each captured territory. Ah, but I digress. What a fantastic looking backdrop for a bar. And that sign on the street is perfect! I'm looking forward to being there next week. Thanks for sharing!
