"attacking herds of people to the location" - I see now why the restaurant failed.
You could hire this guy to manage it.
Much of Dawg's old haunt is under water. Worst crisis in 50 years.
Sort of like California's finances, except once the sun comes out tomorrow, the problem will quickly disappear back East.
Attacking your customers in IS a bit of a dicey marketing ploy.
Business must have been SO good that management was forced to fend off customers with a stick!
