Re: Incident at Woodrow's Yesterday

As I said earlier, the thread was directed at those who were there, or are part of our group.

And while the story lacks porn-appeal, explosions, or car chases, what it does mark is the fact that the Saints have a very large following in another city which already has an NFL team. It shows that we can hang together and have a bigger voice, and that somewhere in our town, is a place that stands to benefit greatly from doing a little homework and taking care of us. I wish suits at Academy & some other clueless Houston businesses would read some newspapers, or do some research. We're just sitting here with money in our pockets, burning holes, until somebody sells us some Saints stuff.

It should excite you that enough people 300 miles away care enough about your team to raise 3 kinds of hell, when the channel is changed to a Texas team in a Texas bar.

I meet a New Orleans native at every gig I work here. Every gig, every time. If you love the Saints, and you're here, for whatever reason, you have a home with us. --wherever we elect to gather.

Re: Incident at Woodrow's Yesterday

This thread truly sucks.

A few Cowboys fans and a couple fingers WILL NOT stand in our way.

I have had great service at Woodrow's including from waitresses wearing Cowboys gear. If you can't charm a Cowboys fan into loving the black and gold you ain't a Saints diehard.

Don't get mad...get 'em pregnant or drunk. It's a Louisiana thing.

and we have work to do in Shreveport.

--- problem fixed, just as described above. They did the smart thing. We spend lots of money there. I just wanted us treated with
respect. We could not fit another person in the bar yesterday, so way to represent, everybody.

feel free to add any negative comments you like, as it will only bump up
the thread.

Re: Incident at Woodrow's Yesterday

Hi Mike,

I'm glad you are standing tall for the HouDats but you didn't need to stretch two fingers into 9 pages.

I was expecting an exciting tale of women wronged, children scarred for life, men locked in mortal combat after nine pages.

If I had been at Woodrow's during the aforementioned incident I would have been vocal. I yell every time they accidentally bring the guide up on the screen.

So while I am proud of your fine stand for the rights and dignity of our brother HouDats, I am somewhat disappointed in the nine pages of mounting suspense only to get two fingers and a story about some Woodrow's employee signaling system where two fingers means "Please change the channel back to the Saints game before I lose several important body parts in this impending riot"

See y'all Saturday nite.

I agree, but in their defense, it was so crowded, it is physically difficult for them to pass through. One thing when we're talking about service. Cleavage is less important to me than a smile. When we did get service, it was friendly and helpful.
Keep in mind, I spent several years in a produce dept, so I know what its like dealing with *****ing customers--- I never want to be like that. I hate people that ***** out the help and write nasty letters. But... sometimes....

Well, Gumbeau, this thread has encompassed a normal pattern of conversation, ranging from now banned breasts on my avatar, to "mojo-man," the homeless Saints fan, to John Mecom trivia, and Houston landmarks, "should I stay or should I go"--fans who think they've hexed us
by their mere presence, and just normal greetings among us---that's how it got to nine pages. I'll never cry "threadjack," or any of the other stuff
I heard on my old board. Its just normal conversation, dude.

I had a number of friends say, **** this place, we'll go somewhere else next week, including some who have been unhappy with the service for some time. If you'll re-read thru, I believe several times I asked my friends to be calm, and wait and lets see what happens. I like what we do, and I wouldnt want to change it, without good reason-- and that was
the purpose of my posting. We use this board for communication sometimes.

Bottom line, if I give someone 30-40-50 dollars, and I encourage a bunch of other friends to join me & do the same, every other week, I will not be told to **** off by the person I am paying. Is that asking too much?

I would apologize for the lack of entertainment value here, but it would be insincere. I'll try to use more cats, breasts, and car chases next time.

However, as many know my diplomatic nature, I would be glad to spice it up a little just to say thanks for your time. How about later today, if I get time, I'll re-post my lost, famous Condom Story? (We lost it in the crash a few months ago)

cool? alright.

Just in time for the holidays, who would like a nice Condom Story?

I deal with people that ***** all day long so I go out my way to not act like that as well, was just serving up a suggestion so things run a little bit smoother cause the crowds are not going to get any smaller from this point on out this season. They are friendly, just you have to flag them down sometimes
