Perhaps we should pool our resources and revive it as the Calgarypuck Man Cave.

I certainly do. The last time I was there I was watching a friend's show and the bartender was doing a line of coke off the bar with a waitress. It doesnt get much worse than The Point.
I remember having a great time running across the street hammered with the staff to cause trouble over at Bob the Fish just to piss them off and then running back and having the whole bar deny it when their bouncer came over after he clearly saw us running into the bar.

We'd have the place to ourselves. Nothing but hockey on the TVs, no Nucks or Oilfans allowed. Maybe a special CP ID card.

Then the Bull & Finch bought it out, and it was never the same since.  |
Its turned into something else twice I think since then. It is not very cool anymore.
