a bar that charges by the hour

buschmaster
it works like this. you walk into the bar, you sign in with your smart phone, and instead of paying for drinks, you just start drinking and they charge you 10 bucks an hour. or 20 bucks an hour for "top shelf stuff" and "you can drink all you legally can" whatever that's supposed to mean.

I knew a few people that would run that place out of business. heh heh. and, I'll bet they make most of their money from people who get drunk and forget where the time went, charging hours and hours on their credit card through their smart phone.

good idea or bad idea.

    20 bucks an hour for top shelf stuff?

    I'd be good for all of 6 minutes. :twisted:

    I don?t drink much these days and I haven?t been in a real bar in 28 years. But back in the day, that would be a bargain.

    Believe I could get my moneys worth. I could put away a lot of top shelf bourbon in a short amount of time. I may not be able to function real well, but I guarantee it would be entertaining. :oops:

    Terrible idea for both owner and customer. All that does is encourage one to drink as much as possible as fast as possible. Bar loses money, customer dies of alcohol poisoning.

    That video cracks me up. I sat there last night and watched him fall off that stool for a good 5 minutes and laughed my butt off every time he hit the floor.

    Yeah I know, I'm easily amused. After what I've been through with the wife, I need something to brighten my day. :lol:

    Would it sound more acceptable if they rented you a table and chair for $10 an hour (bring a friend or laptop - game on the TV) and they keep your glass filled with...whatever?

    And call it a lounge, not bar.

    Personally I think serving anyone more than two drinks should be illegal unless they can prove they are not driving.

    That's the catch legally your drunk after two or three drinks so by the hour is stupid. It's .08 in most places now.

    I don?t really go to bars so I can?t say one way or another.

    It?s probably not a one size fits all answer either.

    a priest, a minister, and a rabbi walk into a pay-by-the-hour bar. the priest says "I don't have much money, what do you have for me." the bartender says "we have 10 dollars an hour for the regular stuff." the priest says "okay" and starts drinking.

    the minister says "I'm a big time minister on TV. I have a mansion, a private jet, and my own golf course. money is no object. what do you have for me?" the bartender says "we have 20 dollars an hour for the top shelf stuff." the minister says "okay" and starts drinking.

    the rabbi says "it doesn't matter how much money I have, because I'm going to drink as much as I possibly can and leave before I spend hardly any money! heh heh. what do you have for me?" the bartender says "ohhh... we have 50 dollars for one hour. you can drink anything you want and as fast as you want." the rabbi says "that's too much." the bartender says "but for you, it's 75 percent off!" the rabbi says "okay!" and starts drinking.

    but he was awfully confused when he paid the 50 bucks and had to leave after 15 minutes.

    A bar that charged by the hour in Wisconsin would be bankrupt in one week. :D

    I see a lawsuit.

    "Plaintiff asserts defendant is responsible for his DUI, resulting fines, job loss and dissolution of marriage by encouraging him to consume as much alcohol as possible in the shortest amount of time; and for defending himself against a sexual assault allegation asserted to have taken place in defendant's restroom. Plaintiff further requests financial restitution for monies spent defending himself in the collision between motor vehicle operated and a bus full of children and nuns in which, each holding a newborn puppy, were killed"
