Have a Drink On Me!

Sandor's Post-Tax Day Offer

I'm a big fan of Steve Barnes' TableHopping blog over in the Times Union. It's invigorated the conversation about food, dining, and community.

But lately it's become a bit, uhmmm...

...meta.
...insular.
... stagnant.

Posts about posts. "He-said-she-said" volleys. Hyper-critical inferences based on the turn of a phrase.

Blah.

Now, being the jolly grognard that I am, I know that I ain't gonna solve nothing from the inside, so here's my proposal:

Have a Beer With Me.

That's right: have a beer with me.

Today (04/16/09) from 5:00 to 7:00pm at the Lionheart Pub in Albany.

And not just that... if you can prove to me that you have actually eaten at the restaurant that you post about (a sales receipt, some knowledgeable tidbit that you'd have to have been there to know, a convincing lie... anything really) then:

I'll Buy You A Beer!

Yup... I'll buy you a goddamn beer.

And that's not all...

TableHoppers,



AoA'rs



Yelp'rs





...you're all invited!

C'mon people... its frikkin' springtime in Albany. Enjoy it.

"But Sandor" I hear some of you folks saying, "how will we know it's you?"

I'll be wearing my sweet Chewbacca costume!

OK... maybe not, but I will be wearing the Real Deal Bush Hat my sweet girlfriend got me for my birthday!

See ya there.

Hail Eris!
