Ohh. Yes the closing of any bar is a cause for dismay, but one in Lake Geneva, wow, that is bad news.

This sucks. Granted, I haven't been to LG since LGGC #1, but it still sucks. That's the equivalent of the Ram closing in Indy.

Are we sure this isn't a simple misunderstanding?

When we say "yeah, we closed the bar" up here in the Great White North, what we mean is "we were at the bar until it closed, and then they kicked us out, eh?"

My understanding is the owner got busted for some illegal mess and they have suspended his license. They have to renew it now, so maybe there is hope!

Don't worry Rig. I'm sure we can get you thrown out of some other establishment. Worry not.

Oh heck yeah. I plan on buying Rigon tons of drinks when he comes to LG next year - so he'll get to see EVERY drinking establishment in town - and there's a bar at the Cove.

It's only ok if I want to give her half my stuff and find some other place to live. I guess I can live with just the gaming and the drinking, especially if Rhu's buying.
