Five Things No Bar Should Have. (Hijacked this list from the net)
1. Natural light. Bars are supposed to be womblike sanctuaries, separate from the blinding bleakness of mainstream society. They should always be poorly lit, and they should not have windows. If I'm drinking at 3:00 P.M., the sun should not remind me what time it is.
2. Patrons who are reading. Darkness also discourages all the bozos who think people will be impressed if they're seen reading in a bar, which is as cool as being drunk at Barnes & Noble.
3. Loud music. There is a belief among many bar owners that loud music creates intimacy (which theoretically increases the possibility of romantic interplay, thereby prompting people to return) by forcing patrons to sit closer together and scream directly into one another's ears. Everybody hates this. I have never been in a bar where people complained about the music being too soft.
4. Dogs. Never bring your dog into a bar. Ever. They're not clean, and they make the place feel like a veterinarian's office. How is it that you can't have a lit cigarette in any bar in New York or L.A., but you can have a pit bull? I understand that cigarettes cause cancer; they do not, however, rip the faces off small children.
5. Twenty-two-year-old female bartenders who "just wanna party." I already have enough problems. That's why I came to the bar.

1. People wearing spandex, especially fat ones. 2. Hookers. Kickin' it to some hottie and slowly realizing that you're wasting your time as you find out she's for sale is absolutely worse than immediately striking out and getting heismanned right off the bat by some chick. At least there're no illusions in the latter scenario. 3. Cops. Nothing against po-po, but badges and blue don't mix well with fun. 4. Country music. 5. Political discussion.

Rap bars should never play rap. Rap is played in Clubs. Country, rock, blues that is bar music, rap is not.

1. Trivia contests during a dart-team's league match. 2. Mean spirited people drawing circles at 11 p.m. in a crowded area and getting pissed when they get bumped into. 3. People saying they wrestled at UCLA and they only lost to Brock Lesnar and Shelton Benjamin. 4. "Insert Baby For Refund" scribbled on a wall with an arrow pointing to the condom machine. 5. $6 a pack cigarettes.
Other than that, Brendee's is a fine place.

More than 3 wrestlers, or former wrestlers, at a time, as any discussion between more can either close the bar with the lengthy "remember when" convos or the fights between the 2 that say they're the best ever.
