Sweetbob, if you are "just an idea guy" as you say you are----and I firmly believe that you are---for the love of God, PLEEEEEEEEEEASE DO NOT UNDERSELL your idea at the end its discussion with that final sentence. Yer throwin cold water on a very hot idea. Let it percolate amongst the masses for a bit and ring in one's ears for awhile. At the end, you made it sound like it may not be worth much. It's a great effin idea.
Maybe add this to it: A $5 "card" or "coupon" good for a 'Dog and a Drink' (large, non-alcoholic); or, a $7 card for a 'Dog and a Drink (16 oz. domestic, alcoholic)!
You IN or OUT, padna?!!
Man, this is an idea worth serious pursuit. Can someone here get it in front of Soredick? BTW,
