Birds of prey... I have been letting pupper have free access to the backyard by leaving the sunroom door open. He loves to run around out there and explore. Today I went out with him and looked up and saw an eagle flying by, the eagle did a sharp banking turn and started to fly towards the house. I brought the dog inside and watched the eagle... it flew right over the back yard. Soooo... now the open door policy is over. That bird has a new way point in his memory banks...and I need to be out there with pupper from now on.

You could shoot at it, make sure to record it, and post on some social media when you do👀👀

It was a great spot. At one point they put your name on a small gold plate and put it above the bar if you drank all the imports. My name was there.

After wife moved to Memphis, she bartended at the Flying Saucer downtown. Once you drank everything there, you got your own Flying Saucer with your name on it. Her Saucer is still hanging up there.

Has she earned her flying saucer at the location on Germantown Pkwy? It’s right out front of my subdivision.

She earned it all downtown. The funny thing is my current boss has a saucer as well there. She had that fancy Rice education and she said she made significantly more per hour bartending on weekends than she did with her day job when she first started off.

I think I've been to the Cordova one twice in the 15-20 years it's been open. If I'm going out drinking, I'm not going to Cordova and if I'm going out for food, I'm not going to the Saucer. I've been to that Danvers before.

I’m sure I was in there then. Ask her if she remembers serving a 300 lb Swedish-Korean.

She said she only remembered habitual poor tippers and creepy guys who made passes at her. She did not remember anyone with the physical description you listed.

She said it was a popular spot when the Grizzlies moved into town.

I know there's a couple of former bartenders in here but that's probably one of the best jobs someone under 25 can have. You learn to provide service, you learn to listen, you learn to read people.
