I know it sounds like I'm clowning around, but I'm serious. Someone has got to grab the bull by the horns and be able to show some of these businessmen how they can increase business, AND profit, by spreading some better pay tables, at different denominations (especially for quarters), with relatively higher progressive meters, with advertisement of that fact. I know there are a few very successful models in the area. And then, there doesn't seem to be a "middle ground". It is the successful models, and then a vast wasteland of 7-5 Double Double Bonus.
Anyway, I don't know who could grab that bull by the horns, but it's got to be someone with clout and respect. That's where YOU come in, Frank!
Which reminds me of a question I'd like to ask you or Bob. A couple years ago, Eastside Cannery was literally fighting for the seal of approval from Bob Dancer and recognition of such for the Boulder Strip. Apparently that got lost or fell through the cracks since then. What happened? If someone can point me to a thread where this was discussed, I'd like to know. Thanks. I must have missed that story.
I know I'm jumping around and kinda digressing, but Frank, how about since you guys have a relationship with Dotty's, what about pushing them in the direction of linked progressives? I really liked their setup. I'm not sure what happened in court last week, I know there was supposed to be something on April 5th, that's what a guy at Dotty's told me.
And another one that should have progressives, in my opinion, is Village Pub. Someone should put the thought into their head. It's a natural!
