RIGHT NOW! ITS ON FIRE! Oh the humanity, the horror, the horror.
And its the ONLY BAR IN TOWN in this little village of 1000 people. I better clean out my basement and put up some neon and start my own until they get this mess cleaned up. Bad day in British Columbia. I'm crying. The ice you see on the ground is from all the bar patrons tears.

There are no words.......................the only bar in town........
the horror....the horror......
Yep, a tent tarp, cooler with ice, some kegs and a few 2 x 12s across two barrels. If the police got a problem tell them you are performing an emergency public service to keep folks from killing each other.
This is the saddest thing I've seen on this board.

And afterwords we can run amok! Or if you're too tired, we can walk amok.
The British approach is outlined best in the attached image.
But yes, this is a horrible thing to behold.... given the apparently small size of that town, how long before the person responsible for this gets found out and lynched? In the mean time, I agree that opening up your own 'emergency refreshment tent' is the best idea.

Let us have wine and women, mirth and laughter,
Sermons and soda water the day after.
www.drunchblog.com <- it's full of pictures of epic breakfasts made by me and my friends. That's about it.
Its been hell for the last few days, the shock of it all is similar to quitting drinking. The shakes and sweats were rampant around town.
So what you can see is that the building housed a Hotel, Laundromat and Pub all in one and it was the fricken greasy kitchen that started the inferno apparently. The pub food tasted like crap if you ate there undrunk, but when sloshed it was the best thing since since Moms Meatloaf. You know how it is - you'll shove anything down your gullet when your three sheets to the wind.
In between the kitchen and the bar there was a little take out window, and above it was a large pair of fur lined panties. They were owned by the most prominent hooker that lived in the hotel and serviced the workers from the dam back in the 60s, when the town had a very large influx of workers to build the behemoth on the Peace River. So when the dam was finished and all the workers left for other jobs, she left as well but left the hotel owner the present of some ginch and they have proudly hung above that window where your food sits. Yummie goodness!
Of course there are plans to rebuild, and rumour has it all our town drunks are lining up to help cause they want to be back on the stools as soon as possible.
This bar started collecting Canadian money with bar patrons signatures on it many many years ago. So the walls were lined with old Canadian bills, some with signatures of people that have passed on. What a total loss for the community that way. And all the booze too. Oh the booze. So sad.
