You suck as a promoter.

 

[57stratdawg]

Is this a restaurant/bar? What type of food is it?

Where is it?

 

[aTotal360]

Old State Theatre if I remember correctly. Nothing else was really said. I don't remember hearing enough about it to entice me to plan a trip there...

 

[the80'sareablurrdawg]

It is a bar/rest above State Theatre. Very relaxed atmosphere and good tunes. A limited menu right now. Good beer on tap and the outside balcony area is sweet. If you like Buffet and the beach....youll like this place

 

[notoriousD_O_G]

good tunes.

Buffet

DOES NOT COMPUTE

 

[ArcherSPS]

Can my friend Steven Godfrey come?*****

 

[Dawgbite]

DOES NOT COMPUTE

Obviously has never been to a live show. Hobie is a good Dawg and needs the support of his fellow Dawgs. Its amazing that people get on here and ***** about chain restaurants and nothing happening downtown and when somebody tries to add a local owned place to a vacant building and people won't support it. Geez!

To be fair, really the only information he has posted is:

"Hai guise, support my business! We have beer, not much food, and we play Jimmy Buffett!"

Honestly, that's kinda how I envision my retirement years!

I don't think anyone questions his Bulldog loyalties. But, to put it nicely, he's a polarizing person. Some people really love him and some people really don't. I hope his bar is a good one and I hope it works out for him.

Like any new place, I think you'll get at least one chance with most fans/students, which is all you can ask for at this point. If it's cool, fun, good experience, etc. - they will come back. If not - that's on you.

I'll be there in a couple weeks and I hope it's awesome. There's always room in the market for awesome. And like someone else said, I want local places to do well - especially if MSU people own it. Good luck --

 

[The Peeper]

Only if you being Chuck, Jughead, and Yancy too

 

[Drebin]

I laughed

 

[the80'sareablurrdawg]

I didn't think I would need to issue a 17 press release. Go see for yourself what its all about. Jeez

 

[aTotal360]

Is this bar any better than the half dozen watering holes I already know I will like?
Do you even think it's important to convince people it is?
Do you think "go see for yourself" is going to get anyone's business?
Do you even care?

 

[Drebin]

the point is that you really have a chance to market your new place here. Really sell it. Instead, it's just, "hey, come check out hobie's on main....beach, buffet, you'll love it!" Give people a real reason to want to come check it out. You'll probably get a warmer response.

 

[the80'sareablurrdawg]

It is not my place. Just doing a frind a favor

Seriously. This could be any guy over 55s back porch with that description.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

I hope the place succeeds. I just don't like Buffet.

 

[DirtyDog]

This board gets ridiculous sometimes.... The guys just said there's a new place downtown and to take a look. He didn't buy ad space. Either go check it out or continue to sit on your tailgate drinking Natty Lite.

Gonna need to see some pics of the waitresses.

You're probably not doing him much of a favor.

Seriously? That's how he announces his business opening? Not much food? Margaritaville on repeat? I hope he never took a marketing class. Going on description it sounds like a poorly planned high school house party.

Not dissing the guy, and it may be a hell of a place, but that isn't the best of announcement that you have opened the doors. When the key hits the door in a bar business for the first time you should have an attractive and inviting website, a social media presence, and people on the drill field handing out coupons and professionally designed menus. And this is the very least!

I'll give it a try when down prior to the first game, but cmon man. Make the place sound like the best place North of Bourbon Street.

^^^Winner Winner Chicken dinner. Just say you are part of the television crew and you'll get treated like royalty.

Could a bar like The Landing even exist today? I worked there from 85-90 and only pissed inside if it was raining really hard.

I liked the post for I enjoy Natty Light in a State koozie posted up on a truck bed. Mama told me, when I was young...to be a Simple kind of Man.

I had a blast at a local (GA) bar that only sold a handful of Beers, cans or bottles, nothing on draft, & snack foods. No liquor license, I suppose, but if you brought your own, bought mixers or ice, they turned a blind eye. The building was small, but the outdoor area was huge. Something like 8 regulation (whatever that means) horse shoe pits & a gazebo like stage for live music. They'd hooked up a porcelain urinal outside behind a single saloon door. It was brilliant.

Classic.

Bourbon Street 17n blows. It's for people who have no idea how fun NO actually is

 

[Joe Schmedlap]

I plan to check it out after the game. If it's got AC, big screen TV's, and any decent cold beer, it'll do. Gonna support a good Delta Dawg with a visit.

No one is saying they won't support it. They are saying they don't support the90sareablurdouche and would rather go to something like Cowbells if he is there.

Very well said. I think everyone wants to see the place do well but this guy is a dick.
