The HD signal on my Bell receiver sure can change the aspect ratio and stretch it way out of whack. Some TVs can also override a HD signal and also stretch the picture. I know my LG can.

My guess is that most bar employees are uneducated about their TV systems and haven't a clue how to get a proper picture and don't care much anyways.
