A long overdo Rachel's rant...

So here is a little rant of mine. . .
Over the weekend I saw several of my friends make posts on FB about a new bar opened in The Avenue, Bar Louie's and was a little astonished at the way ass adults were behaving. However, I have taken into consideration I'm not at all a huge sports fan, but I do love hockey and support my Nashville Predators, however I am not going to go to a great new place with probably the best service I've had in awhile because the manager wore a Red Wings jersey to the bar on Friday night when the Predators played.
Several people posted that it was the dumbest move a manager could do trying to open a new establishment in this area. How dare him? They will never get any of their money now and they will be sure to tell all of their friends that now state they will not give this new place a try. Here is where I said " this is fucking absurd and the stupidest shit I've ever heard. " I didn't see these posts until after I went there on Sunday for a lunch and cocktail. Everyone there was friendly, the bartenders shook each persons hand that sat down, asked their names then passed the names on to everyone else working behind the bar so they could ask them by name if they needed anything else in case your original bartender was hung up while you needed anything. When we left the bar, the manager got up from his table meeting with employees shook our hands once again, 'called us by our names' and told us thank you for stopping by and hopes we come back" Come on people, I mean what bar or restaurant have you been to in Murfreesboro that does that.Isn't everyone always talking about service, the importance of it, someplace to call home like Cheer's? Well what if this is the place you idiots and yes some of these idiots are my friends, but just like them I'm entitled to my opinion. What if the manager of this new bar is from Detroit, that's his home town, the team he grew up being loyal too? Do you really expect him to stop being loyal to his team? Would you if you had to move out of state that had a new team you didn't grow up investing time and dedication too change your team just because of where you live? I think not, at least not Predators' fans or even Titans for that fact (no matter how bad they get each season)
So my rant is "Is dedication to a team going to affect everything in your life, from where you eat, to where you shop, to where you socialize? Come on people get over it! Everyone should be able to root for whatever team they want, and just because it's not "OUR" team does not give us the right to boycott somewhere that I think may have some of the best service in town. So suck on that. . .
