I'm curios Jawa, and I don't mean this in a condescending way at all, but how have you not been to the Lakeshore yet?

just wondering

What the hell is going on with Lakeshore? No offense to management, people are indeed stupid, but this is becoming an ongoing occurrence with some our favorite comedians at that venue.

It is the beer bucket!! I am a professional drunk and comedy show audience member, so I think I've figured it out. Most places people are allowed to buy one or two drinks or have a cocktail server bring one or two drinks at a time. The bucket is just ASKING for people to drink more than they should. There is also the possibilty people like the attention, and since they may have seen it once before, they want to get some attention. Either way it sucks balls.

That is my opinion. I will be at the show 10:30 Saturday show and I will probably have waaay too much to drink. And I will be looking for weed, if anyone knows anyone in this town.... I would love to smoke before this show. I have long blonde hair, if you see me. Thanks in advance.
