The one from the other nite was unreal. The most immature people i have ever seen. Taffer blew them off, he couldnt stand them

Prince Kajuku (Bill Magill), Tuesday, 25 March 2014 14:49 (ten years ago) link

i haven't seen/won't see the episode but i can't take anyone seriously if they ever think taffer has any sort of high ground to anyone ever

he's the one who has some control in these situations and he CHOOSES to present himself like that

did i post this? http://k23detectives.com/2012/09/23/piratz-tavern-bar-resue/ this show has me emotionally invested in defending piratz. i live a block away i'll make sure to interrogate some waiters for the truth next time

asked our waitress about the show, she wasn't there for it but was told the funny story about how taffer instructed the dude to be really lewd to his wife when she came in "undercover" and he said something really lewd and it made taffer so angry he stormed in and punched the guy and now there's a lawsuit

linda cardellini (zachlyon), Saturday, 12 April 2014 07:38 (ten years ago) link

wasn't clear but i think it was taffer who filed the lawsuit

He probably named the bar "the quiet room" or the " library" afterwards.

the archives of this are such a fun rabbit hole to go down

search: the o face, the MT bottle, headhunters, whichever one had dj green lantern giving dj lessons, whichever one had the doormen constantly trying and failing to pat down customers, the chicken bone (i used to work in that town and went out for lunch there MANY times in its previous chuck e cheese-style incarnation)

Taffer said "He's not El Comandante, he's EL MORON-TE!" at least twice in the episode I'm watching (Puerto Rican bar in Jersey City). Sick burn.

kind of a weak season so far, but the dirty rooster ep was awesome - i kept losing it @ taffer mispronouncing "fiduciary"

Yeah what the fuck was that. how does he not know how to pronounce that.

the re-rescue episode was surprisingly anticlimactic.

btw, has anybody seen the competition show Barmaggedon? they basically take two bars (usually successful) and swap owners for a day and then see who wins based on who increases the other place's revenues the most.

interesting concept, but it fails on a number of levels. One day's revenue when compared with averages can rise or fall based on any number of things outside of the new owner's control. Likewise, the only changes the owner could implement that would have any real impact on sales are promotions (ie, changing or adding happy hour) or increasing sales per ticket/improving table turns, as anything like a menu or philosophical change would need days or weeks for a downstream impact to be seen.

I like it as its more lighthearted and less tabloidy than Bar Rescue, but I don't get that it makes much sense....still, some potential if they tweak it a bit.

Holy shit this Detroit strip club episode. The place is called Chix on Dix. It's... a hell of a thing.

Feel like I'll never be able to watch this show again due to Taffer's Trump-like vibe.

lol they are rescuing the Copper Rocket, a bar with a douchey owner about 20 minutes from me. my brother is talking about crashing their grand re-opening to get on tv.

After the Piratz Tavern fiasco, with all of the vitriol in social media and the press, it appears that the owners pulled up stakes and moved to Florida. Their new bar is named Bar Refuge.

The original Piratz Tavern stemmed from Rebelo’s love of elaborate Halloween parties and a childhood dream of someday owning her own restaurant.
