Pretty solid, beer was a lil expensive but not terrible, but this security guard just came and stood over us, i had to say hi and then he was like “you know you cant do that” and i was like what? And he gestured at my friends carrot cake and he was like im not working here today but you know you cant do that and i was like ok ill put it away and he said just eat it quickly before they get you. Very strange interaction, not the gafs fault but cmon gang, lets be a bit friendlier
