Mr. Roberts and Operation Swill: An American Tradition

I suspect Doc was using 200 proof lab ethanol and USP tincture of iodine. Can't get any purer than that.

Gotta be college kids buying this crap, TGIF was a college place when I went there, decades ago. Nobody who's drunk scotch would be fooled by this crap, I'd think

That gives new meaning to the term blended scotch.

Changing out liquor is just the surface… It goes WAY deeper than you can imagine! If this news got your blood boiling you should check out a book I read called The Money Shot. Some bartender under a pen name revealed all the scams and extortion techniques he created to rip off the bar and its guests. Apparently he stole enough to start his own bar. Good read given the subject matter. You may have to take a shower after you’re done though.

William Powell's last movie. The three of them at their comedic best.

TGIF was one of the "go-to" places in Marina del Rey during the mid to late 70s. Haven't been in one in years.
