It's funny you should mention skewed Khmer dude to Khmer chick staffing. You know what place has the worst ratio in that regard? Lone Pine Cafe. I had lunch in there this week and the whole back half of the bar was occupied by 5-6 Khmer dudes yammering away and taking up space. That's pretty routine for Lone Oine. Then they have 3-4 women working in there too, so let's call it a staff of ten Cambodians hanging around to serve three customers.eddie blake wrote:uh, ok. Please update your thread with relevant info.
Preferably prior to kickoff,
and not in the form of some dickish postscript oozing with cheeky aspersions re. the locations lack of finger-foods and/or skewed ratio of Khmer dude to Khmer chick wait-staff numbers.
oh.... silly me. Maybe your coy circuitous lack of direct answer means you don't want the exact date and time of your whereabouts known to 440's all and sundry.
Feel free to PM me. I pride myself in my discretion.
What bars will be showing the NFL playoffs this year?

It's too late...a "prominent" 440 member already PM'd me your planned NFL postseason viewing itinerary:

Stopped in Monstah for the Alabama vs. Clemson game. The staff were very nice (this is the 2nd time I have visited with good service), but the game feed was horrible, so went to Paddy Rice to watch. Maybe it was just this particular event where the feed was bad (obscure channel ?) I agree about Paddy Rice. The girl working was sleepwalking and incredibly rude. My buddy and I were drinking plenty of bottled beer, and when I asked for a glass of Ice water she refused. It wasn't as if I was sitting on a single cup of coffee to catch the game. I thought last year that the new Mgr was improving the place, but this is the 2nd time in as many weeks that the staff were un-smiling rats.

I went to Monstah to watch the Packers at 4:40 a.m. Monday morning. Good experience overall. Only one other patron was in there to watch the match and then a drunk dude wandered in and out a few times.
They had the game on one of the six screens behind the bar. It was streamed off what may have been an "unofficial" feed, not the NFL Game Pass. The feed was good overall, I think it cut out twice and had to be reset, but we only missed one or two plays. Otherwise the speed/connection were very good.
The kitchen was open all night. Breakfast was OK. The two dudes working in there actually did a good job as far as Khmer dude staff is concerned.
It appears that Monstah is a "no smoking" bar, which I appreciate.

I posted a reply in this thread which was deleted by the mods. In my reply, which was up for a few days, I posted that the owner of the MONSTAH comes across as a bit creepy (I did say sleezeball as well). I stated that I think the bar sucks, with a terrible design and no real thought going into the place. I mentioned that management was clueless, runs out of beer, and was a bit of a prick to those around (if he's even there). I suggested not going there to watch a game.
I then received a private message from the owner, which was about a week ago, but I've been away with limited internet so I'm just looking through things now. As with longstanding K440 policy, I won't post the entire response. Gordo, I will admit that calling you creepy (although, to be fair, I did just say that you came across creepy, not that you actually are) was a bit of a low blow. I apologize as that is truly irrelevant. But you seemed to take offense that I posted in a forum "where the other person can't reply back." You've created an account, and you can now post a reply... that's exactly what a forum is.
You also suggested that I get a life and stop living vicariously through others. Thanks, I'll have to try that. In the meantime, can you please address some of my criticisms about the bar? I understand the name (named after Fenway's "the green monster"), but the choice of green that you painted the wall is not flattering for the bar. Also, and particularly with the paint scheme, the lighting is not very appealing at all. As others noted, the games are streamed through an unofficial course, and cut out. Surely for next season you may purchase Game Pass?
The design of place is interesting - when you order a draft beer, the staff needs to exit the bar and run into the back to get the mug. When I was there you only offered one draft beer, and that ran out. There were no cans of beer on offer. It just seems that you haven't run a bar before, and may not be completely sure about how to do so.
Admin, my post really wasn't that bad, I'm surprised you took it down - Gordo isn't even advertising with you. If you remove this post, can you at least PM to let me know why?

You obviously don't know the nuances of K440. It's OK to say this:

They're broadcasting the game on True. Didn't have to go down to the sports bar, yee haw!
Gaga was not very good at halftime, can't she come up with some new material? Her attempt to revive her career failed miserably. Katy Perry and the shark bit a couple years ago was much better.
Brady is really sucking today, demonstrating again how over-rated he is as a QB. Falcons 21, Pats 3 at halftime
Go Falcons!

If you don't know where you're going, any road takes you there.
What's up with the tv's at Monstah, 6 screens all right next to each other in a 2x3 grid... All playing a different channel/game/ match...it's distracting if you're trying to focus on one...me no like.
I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.
Shit, sonofabitch and every other expletive in my vocabulary.
Oh well, don't really care about the pro's, just college games.

Brady won it for the Patriots.
He threw about 6 passes to make 4 first downs without a miss in over time.
Once it was first and goal he threw the touchdown on the second attempt.
7 Superbowls for 5 wins and you think he is over rated as a QB? Who has a better record????? You?????
Man you must be superb at your own job in comparison.
Note to self: Must be nice to morons.
