On the final day, (Sunday) Trader Lee's hosts a "Locals Party" to thank everyone. No doubt about it, we had the biggest Bike Week celebration/party we've ever had. Many bars either closed their doors or saw very little traffic compared to Trader Lee's. The Convention Center got off to a rough start after they closed the Inlet parking lot. What happened was, they didn't apply for a transfer for their liquor license and were not allowed alcohol sales for a day or two, ugh! nevertheless, it was ultimately straightened out but we enjoyed being one of the only bars stocked and ready to go.
Once everyone got to see the entertainment, well, that's all it took to keep everyone coming back for more. Our staff is unbelievable and have truly worked their tails off. As fast as we could bring the beer in it was being sold and the cycle continued for 15 hours straight per day.
Just as important Rod and I want to thank all of the people who patronized Trader Lee's. Today we'll throw an incredible party with Live Music and great drink prices. We swing our doors at 11:00 AM.
Finally, On Friday we handed out 1,900 Trump 2020 Flags and we only had 100 flags left for Saturday. I was pulling flags off my golf cart last night as people continued to come in asking where they could get a flag for their bike. It's been a great time and it has certainly worn me out. I'll pop a Ibuprofen this morning and head back in for some more body punishment. If your not busy today, pop in and have a good time.

There was a picture or two showing Seacrets looking deserted. Let me explain why that may be. The day after Labor Day, we went there for an early dinner and sat out in the open area outside. Seacrets apparently stopped running a full service bar. I asked for a Manhattan and was told that they have no sweet vermouth. I asked for an Old Fashioned and was told they did not have any bitters. I finally asked for a simple whisky on the rocks and was served whisky and ginger ale. After sending that back, I did get whiskey on the rocks. Don't bother asking for a brand because I they seem to stock only their own brand now. As for food, one of the items on the (small) menu my friend ordered they were out of.
I won't be returning.
Nothing new 327...nothing new at all. Many of us go elsewhere these days, where there is good service and grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat after season food!
Bye!
Combine bike week with endless cruisin for one big party in October!
