“There is an area in Dublin called Temple Bar which is a strip of bars and restaurants in a very tight area. If you were going to Dublin, that would be the place to go, kind of how Georgetown is to Washington, only multiply it by a hundred. You can walk down Temple Bar at 11 a.m. and the bars would be full.”
“The bar lights up and can turn red, green, blue, you name it. So if you are sipping a Cosmo, bang, the bar will turn red, an apple martini, bang, turns green.”
“So far, it has been huge for us. We have one of our guys train people to line dance and we have half price steak nights the same night. So people can come, enjoy dinner and then stay for dancing.”
“The growth in earnings should really start to motor ahead of the rest of the market. They really are only just starting to convert the gain in ratings share into revenue share and that will drive profit margin improvement.”
“You can fit 15 to 20 people in the room. We have had players from the Washington Nationals and the Washington Redskins and other high rollers in this room, but anyone can enjoy it, you just have to have the money to rent.”
