@VigilantFox This is not true lol

@clickholebot @YouBetWhat @baddiemaddie43 Wrong on so many levels. Trivoli is far more dynamic. Armitage is a winter restaurant.

[Board Observer Barry @BoardObserver]

@YouBetWhat @baddiemaddie43 Service maybe.

Menu is better (and bigger) at Trivoli. Armitage has more hype because the footprint is much smaller. Armitage is great in the winter but menus is less good for warm weather.

@YouBetWhat @baddiemaddie43 It is not

@MichaelGuimarin This isn’t how that works at all.

You made this up.

@923TheFan @AndrewSiciliano They didn’t want to… and yet they did! Voluntarily!

@therealmcnair Bombas golf right now. Might try Del Campo now that they have the blanks.

@RossRead Loyalist was phenomenal pre Covid. Has gone downhill in recent years sadly.

@tom_sietsema Doesn’t tell the full story. Sometimes a business can see margin erosion and be a more valuable, durable business for the next buyer.

@JimNantzsBurner Have shirts from all three. AMs fit is phenomenal. Time and a place for both Arnie and HB. PM on the down slide hard for polos. Pants and hoodies / QZ still great.

@therealmcnair @Titleist @engineeringolf Titleist will replace. Honestly, they’ll probably send you a GTS. Happened to me a few years ago with the TS3.

@RealSethRaynor Insane how every year they call the PGA a fake major because it’s played at some weak course everyone lights it up and when they finally have a proper setup people are still mad.

Frankly awesome to see so many people in the mix.

@therealmcnair Roger. Carried my rye for 18 yesterday single strap and was definitely heavy. Might mix it up with the Evans. Probably easier for the loopers as well.
