    Hicks ownership group is involved in at least 7 restaurant, bars, breweries in this state. We need to verify ALL of them and get the boycotts rolling. We need to make sure he loses far more cash in Colorado than he will ever gain from his upcoming federal appointment.

    Plumbers and Pipefitters Local 58 $2,500.00. I'm sure there are others.

    ETA: Looks like Copic Insurance was the top donor at $5,000.

    Please say he doesn't have ownership in Odells, I'd hate to have to quit drinking their beers...

    Good luck with that, I'm sure they've already got a high paying cushy appointment all ready for him.

    It would be a brewpub restaurant that specialized in all-natural, small-batch beers. He found investors and did it on the cheap. He called it Wynkoop Brewing Company. Within five years, he had pubs all over the state and all over the country. His second was Cooper Smith’s Pub & Brewing in Fort Collins, then the Phantom Canyon Brewing Company in Colorado Springs. Along the way he bought a few local places like Wazee Supper Club and the Pearl Street Grill. He created local partnerships that opened brewpubs like Wynkoop in cities such as Omaha, Des Moines, Green Bay, Wichita, and San Francisco.
    The business model was to take the same all-natural craft brew and historic-building idea and partner with local investors. It worked, until it didn’t. The business expanded too quickly. Hickenlooper didn’t have control over all of the out-of-state operations; some of the partners in other cities did things differently than Hickenlooper, and he ended up with some “strugglers,” prompting him to sell off his interest in almost all of the out-of-state businesses. As mayor, he put the management of the bars and restaurants, along with all of his business interests, in a blind trust. By the time he’d run for governor—in what was perhaps one of the strongest signs that he’d given up business and committed himself to politics—Hickenlooper had sold off all of his interests in the brewpubs except for Cooper Smith’s and the Beach Chalet in San Francisco.

    Go there and put a roach in your food, then complain loudly. Everyone take turns make it happen a few times per week, then start writing on yelp. Multiple complaints on yelp,along with being loud should do the trick. Do this for like six months.Those around you will start to question...
    Thanks,

    I've boycotted buying anything in Aurora because of Rhonda Fields.

    Default Boycott?

    My business is firmly against all of these new "laws." I have already experienced a slowdown in sales even though business was booming before the talk of a CO boycott. I do not have a brick and mortar store and all of my sales are online.
