It's virtually the only "show in town" for me, other than the Sanford's Grub 
and Pub and the Wonder Bar.(That's my pub of choice: 12 pumps: Bass, 
Newcastle Brown, Guinness, Bud light, Boulevard Wheat, O'dell's 90 shilling, 
Fat Tire, PBR, NB's 1554, Breckenridge Hefe, Blue Moon, and one other that I 
can't remember)

I'm thankful that Sammy Smith has returned to Casper after a long hiatus. 
Same goes for Rogue.

I haven't been to one of those yet but our buddy Randal found one in 
Lakewood called The Yard House. I'm gonna mosey on down there in the not too 
distant future.

I've trained the bartenders to know better than to serve me with a frosted 
glass!! lol
