The wife and I routinely visit Flying Saucer for beers/dinner and then hit a movie down there. We're also big fans of the Peach Tree Inn.

Its not 10 a drink, he's just exaggerating. I like to go to shark bar and drinks there are probably the highest priced out of any place down there and that would be around 7 dollars. PNL is always packed to shit at least for night life and if you don't like it you probably just don't like meeting new people.

No, I'm not... the Shark Bar was actually the lowest of the 3 places I went Friday night, at $7 for four splashes of alcohol and a cup of sprite, and that doesn't include the cover charge. Lucky Strike was $10, and the bartender even warned me "it is $10, is that okay?"

It's a cool place and I'm not sure why some people are set on hating it (well, excluding billay, who's just here to stir shit anyway), and of course I can always head to a dive bar, drink beer, or just hangout for the music... just sayin'.

Yeah I agree.. Have had a few bachelor parties this summer there and it has force me to drink beers just because I do not want to spend 10+ bucks on my 7n7's..

It's actually doing quite well, all things considered. (economy, No sports team yet).

The bars arent hurting at all.

The Sprint Center is drawing more people without a sports team than if they had one. More concerts & special events on key dates and people don't need to purchase season tickets or partial season tickets. This way the amount people spending money to go to one or two events and not blocking out 40 dates a year for a smaller demo leads to greater income.

Also it allows a larger demographic base as well than a sports team would.

Yeah no kidding its a lot more than I envisioned it to be. I go down there every other weekend at least and drop at least a hunski each time. Its brought me downtown from olathe and I even have friends from nevada, mo and they literally come all they way for pnl. If its not.doing as well as expected then somebody did a bad job forecasting

Then these places doing well need to ante up..

I was against the place and its cost on the city..

Who exactly gets the money from the parking and where does it go??

As for the dress code, I agree with it unless they are doing bike night or something similar..

Honestly, I don't know what this dress code is. I've never been turned away. You can wear tshirts, jeans, shorts, hats, pretty much whatever. Out of any place I've ever been it has the most lenient dress codes of places that actually have dress codes. You ever been to the voodoo lounge? Much stricter dress code and there's much more if a cultural crowd to.

Basically you can't dress like some rap-thug you-know-what from what I can tell. That's what the blacks are having a problem with. With that culture comes violence, more police arrests and crime. Can't say I blame the P&L authorities on this, they don't want it becoming the next Westport.

I thought I read something that said P&L got rid of the dress code, at least most of it.

I agree on Voodoo, only time I've ever been there they were turning away about 25% because of improper shoes.

Used to go years back and I agree with Voodoo.. I do not have a reason why the Voodoo does not get critiqued for it..

Ha... Yeah ****ers, you're already being taxed out the ass for this money pit, you might as well come spend all the rest of your moneys on overpriced shit we offer....
