I played Counterstrike at a place like this in Denmark. It was basically two modular homes connected....maybe two construction trailers. They had a ridiculous candy and soda selection. I believe it was open 24 hrs.dlazz;1543486 wrote:I'd open up a LAN/gaming center near OSU. It would double as an internet cafe with coffee and whatnot, but the main draw would be PC/console gaming.
The old bookstore at the corner of 15th and High would be a perfect location for it.

I'd love to open up a high-end beer store. Ditch the Keystone forever, and get cheap high-end booze.

I could teach you if you are really interested in it. It's not a lot of work and the dividends are pretty good.vball10set;1543530 wrote:I'd buy a McDonald's franchise and post on message boards all day

I think a place like that would only catch on near a college campus in the States, though. Plenty of potential customers (18-25 crowd)

Jesus. Why the fuck would I buy my own beer at retail? You think I'm going to drink 2 cases/day? What business owner doesn't buy his/her own goods at cost? Who marks things up before they sell them to themselves?Raw Dawgin' it;1543646 wrote:So drink your own product that you paid for? I'm glad you're a teacher guiding the youth of this country.

I'm enjoying this discussion between RDI and ETB. "High end craft beers" is just another way of saying "Well Marketed Bud Light".

I got what he was saying as well. Reminds me of the people who buy a bar since they already spend a lot of time in bars, so they might as well get paid.Pick6;1543685 wrote:I really don't see what is so hard to understand about ETB's thought process. lol
