Thanks Pissy! Really appreciate your efforts to write in the third person.

Mould is probably keeping it from falling down on its own.
I thought they'd have moved all the Oilers paraphernalia to Rogers by now.

Dump is surprisingly not big enough to receive all the trash.

Since no one can tell the difference, it stays where it is!

Oilers fans losing their mind now because Mrs. McTantrum is opening a bar in Edmonton.

Like you cant open a business in a city and then decide to leave. The guy who owned the theatre here didn’t even live in the country.

I'd rather he stays for max cap hit and term.

Edit: Obviously leaving for nothing as UFA would be my #1 choice.

Everyone understands what a long-term stable business the bar industry is.

Absolutely. After a year of Sportsnet knobgobbling we're treated to the delightfulness just like this each and every spring.

So the "void of personality" interior design career didn't pan out?

I guess black and grey is perfect for the bar design.

It's a fancy dining establishment. For Edmonton. Oilers fans will go once to maybe see McDavid out in the wild and then not go again.

The restaurant that was at that location previously was a Japanese Village.

The logo is a tracing of McDavid's skating tracker for a game. The weird shape under "BAR TROVE" is the Oilers' net.

Yup overdoses are just a real funny one, that’s always my response upon seeing one.

The dress code will keep the riff raff out. Black sweatpants and wingtip shoes and tuxedo t-shirts. And for the ladies, short skirts or Daisey Dukes to accentuate the bruises.
