CO AR-15 Happy Hour

[scratchy]

Downtown works for me. I don't get there real often so I'll pony up to park.

[Irish]

I can meet anywhere as long as it is after 7. I think it would be cool to have a ftf.

Sounds fun. But I'm a bit nervous to the whole face to face thing. What if your/everyone else's face is ugly as hell and I can't contain myself or refrain from pointing it out? I like the idea of a wine bar. It would be a step up for me to drink anything other than Busch light out in my garage by myself. As for parking... F#ck it. view it as stimulating the economy or lack their of. What kind of prices we talking here for wine..? Got Boones or Mad dog 20/20? Or just the fancy sh!t You allow CCW's there or probably not at "alcohol" establishment huh?.! I don't travel without my buddy. You got a dress code of some sorts down there? Wife beater and flip flops allowed? I'd wear pants of course.

Count me in.. I'll even bring a supply of tin foil for those who might need to resupply

Bar is Trios Enoteca 1730 Wynkoop Denver. Its SORT OF lodo... meaning we are out of the stupidity a few blocks away. You can probably meter park for $1 per hour. I park in a garage for $6 per night for 10 hours. Stop in any time after 5pm Wed-Sat and ask for Matt. You always have a friendly haven in lodo if you find yourself here. You can even call me and talk about it if you like 303 521 9949.

Shockingly, almost everyone who works here is pro. Thats what gave me the original idea of trying to pull more of us out of our basement-gunshow-match cycle. Maybe we need to start thinking about putting a more public-friendly image on our lifestyles. What if we called ourselves "Cocktails on the 2nd" and met on the 2nd Friday of each month at a prominent location (brainstorming here). I am at ground zero and here to tell ya... they are out and about and making appearances in unrelated circles. We aren't. Its really that simple. Guys, I gotta tell ya: we are worrying about having to pay for parking, and they are all over the place. Seriously, I don't care about meeting in my bar per se, but having a barbeque at one of our "evil gun-packed compounds" or meeting at Chilis in Parker is not what I am talking about here (although I would also host a barbeque). We really need to put on a more friendly public face as a group.

I am not the only one attached to a wine bar, traditionally thought of as havens of the left... lets do something with this.

[DOC]

Sounds like fun.

If I ever find myself in Denver in the afternoon I'll make it a point to stop in. It's a bit too far off of the beatin' path for me otherwise, but I certainly applaud your efforts to get this put together.

We'd be travelling to a mecca for government employees and the financial establishment that supports them.

If your bar got "outed" as pro2nd, wouldn't that hurt business? If the pseudo-intelligentsia got ahold of this, their brain dead minions in popular media would make a big deal of this.

Besides being violently intolerant of anybody who disagrees with them, they are also a potent economical force - since they rarely contribute to charity, they have more economical clout that non-libs.

I'm just, actually, afraid if it gets OUT that your bar will suffer.

I'd be up for it, but wine isn't my thing, although I can drink it!

Is this something people are still interested in or is still going on?
I noticed almost all the post are very very old.
There are many places in Denver and the sourounding area (so no one has to deal with LoDo) that would be more then happy to have this group.
