From what I remember it’s general, but they will do themed ones every so often.

Is it general trivia or all movie trivia?

No problem! I've talked to some people that weren't very impressed by their food, but I always found it excellent. Also, the owner and staff were always very friendly and accommodating.

He was trying to keep business open, that was when food costs spiked up and he tries to pay his employees fairly as well. I've been a patron of the business since I was a child and I'm 30+ now and it's one of my fav places so I watch his updates - I say this to express not that he is blameless but I am aware of what he was struggling with. He had just opened a new location months prior, that plus rising costs created a lot of chaos and he was working every day multiple shifts to keep business afloat.
In multiple posts he expresses guilt and expresses a lack of organization and not hearing back from the family initially basically let it drop to the wayside as he's human and tired. He later acknowledged he will always ask permission in the future and has profusely apologized for adding to their stress/trauma.
Patrick has a clear record of helping the community over the last decade - especially in covid when food and toilet paper were scarce he sold it at cost not taking profits and has donated multiple times to people in need, to people struggling with food, etc. He has a decent track record as far as I am aware this is his first big screw up.
Again, he isn't blameless, he screwed up, he allowed procrastination and disorganization to hurt someone he intended to help. He's done the groveling, he's paid up, unsure what else he can do other than keep his nose clean and move forward. If this was a trend I would be willing to condemn the place and eat elsewhere, however he's a small business owner trying imo to do his best and treat his people right which is very hard to find these days, especially locally lol.

Right. I didn't even bring up the death count from traffic incidents being on par with the crimes they say need more officer attention.

I don’t know why you got downvoted, you’re correct 😂 the traffic cops don’t handle calls for service not traffic related

Better than us having to do death notifications and explain to your family why you aren’t coming home. I’ve been on both sides and it sucks. 🤷🏾♂️

Actually, yes. He knew the whole time per the letter he received that the family was not seeking the money nor had they "hired" a lawyer. The lawyer worked pro bono to send a couple of cease and desist letters on their behalf, and then to organize communication between the two parties. But he didnt bother to say that and instead allowed his supporters to push that narrative and leave a barrage of victim blaming comments insinuating the family was "out to get something" and overall bad people. The father addressed this in his post on fb today. Apparently they have even received nasty messages and the like. He did not post the truth about their intentions or implore people to leave positive comments until today, I suspect after he spoke to them and they asked him to.

Lol, this is just the traditional "January Thaw." Warms for just long enough to fool all the plants to start to bud out, then WHAM! the icy blast of winter.
We can't have nice fruit!

I sure do miss Payton Alley. I’ve heard of the KSMU fundraiser trivia nights. I get it’s charity but it’s hard for me to pay for trivia when there’s free options.
