[WPTA] Question for Beer & Bull attendees

Fri Nov 10 08:35:16 MST 2023

Well, here’s the latest on the subject:

Cindy and I went to McClelland’s, last night and spoke with Jeff (manager) about our concerns.  Here is what we worked out:

1.	Jeff spoke with the DJ guy, who created the problem at our last meeting and that guy (the one in the orange hoodie) will not be there, this month.
2.	Mondays don’t work, for McClellands, due to  kitchen staffing, on that day.
3.	Jeff will make the third Wednesday a “wing night”, for us and will reduce the wing price, accordingly.  Wednesday is normally $7.00 burger night, but, since they have somewhat limited grill space, Jeff is afraid they wouldn’t be able to get that many hamburger orders out in a timely manner.  So, wings it is (which is the way we had it, originally, back when we started meeting there).
4.	HOWEVER, due to “other considerations” (primarily, Thanksgiving being on the 23rd), we will STILL meet for Beer & Bull, THIS MONTH< ONLY, on Tuesday, November 21, at 5:15 PM.
5.	Starting Wednesday, December 20th, at 6 PM, Beer & Bull will be moved to the third Wednesday of each month.  Tom will be our waiter/bar tender and, I can tell you that he does a great job and really HUSTLES.  So, no worries.

ALSO, since Wednesday, the 21st will be GIllian’s last night of taking care of us, we thought we’d add a little extra for her.  Cindy will have A GIFT BOX for a generous, bonus tip for her help in past years in addition to her regular tip, that you guys can chip in for, if you like.

See you on the 21st at 5:15!

Bud

I'm OK with a day change. 

Mondays are always hectic for working people. 

If the waitresses love us, they can change their schedule.

Do hate to miss Taco Tuesday.

Just my $0.02.

I agree 100% that we need to do something.  The noise is way to loud for us to be able to participate in the Bull portion of the Beer & Bull.

Yes Jullian does a great job and I really enjoy "taco tuesday" night.  But as long as I have been going there I don't remember having bad wait service and there certainly are other selections on the menu besides tacos.  So my vote would be that we stay with McCelland's.  The side room is also a bonus to staying there.  It's really hard to find places with semi-private rooms that don't want to change for the use of the room.

So my vote would be for the third Monday.  The third Wednesday would somewhat interfere with the North breakfast which is also the third Wednesday.  That would be a lot of food to consume in one day.  I'm probably the only one that attend both events so if the third Wednesday wins then I'll figure something out.

I think we all agree that we’re tired of the noise, from the DJ.  So, we have three options:

1.	Move Beer & Bull to the third Monday.  Down side is we’d lose Jillian, as our waitress and she always does a great job for us.  The up side is that Alexa would be our waitress and I’m sure she would equal Jillian’s performance.

2.	Move Beer & Bull to the third Wednesday.  Down side is, again, that we’d lose Jillian as our waitress and Alexa doesn’t work there, on Wednesdays.  Our waiter would be a young man, who’s name escapes me.  Since Wednesday is a fairly slow night, at McClelland’s, I’m sure the young man could keep us supplied with beer.

3.	Find a different bar.  The down side of this idea is that I don’t have a place in mind, at present and it would take some scouting around, before I could find a place that offers good service, good “bar food” and good prices.

So, there you have it.  Please let me know what you would prefer that I do.  I suppose we could try Monday & Wednesday, at McClelland’s, on successive months.

Anyway, don’t leave me hanging, with no opinions given, OK guys?

Thanks,

Bud
