Brett, don't blame the Christians--I'm one and I'd be drinkin' in there with you. Sounds like what rare21 said; TABC must be feeling a lil rusty, needed to get some practice in before the 'breakers arrive...At least the owner was able to give 'em a heads-up; drunken stampedes suck--unless you're in the lead...
I'm not, but that kind of verbiage is more apt to get the ACLU salivating.
