“No, I have a free seat at my house with a 62-inch TV screen and a free six-pack of beer.”
— Austin Grasser, Overland Park, waiter at Free State Brewing Co.
“Absolutely, because the servers make money from turning tables. Some people sit there for three hours and just order water. At least they (servers) will make money this way.”
— Tim Barnes, Lawrence, manager at Jefferson’s Restaurant
“No, I wouldn’t. It’s cheaper to drink and watch the game at home.”
— Stephanie Jian, Lawrence, student
“I wouldn’t, but I don’t care about sports that much.”
