Mac's Industrial Sports Bar
312 Central Ave. SE

So long Becky. Thanks for the memories.


Whether this is to keep something out, or something in, 
it's very poorly thought through.







2016: Friday, March 18th

Walked into The Library Bar. Nearly empty.

Base floor: One bartender, one waitress.

We ordered our drinks at the bar 
(having been burned by the wait staff once before)
and took them upstairs.

1:55 p.m.

















The photo below was taken at 2:30 p.m.

Visits from the waitress: None.
