Ideally the new bar would go something like this.......... (This scenario takes place at halftime of a Butler game, 3 years from today) (A student stands at halfcourt, waiting to take a shot that wins him a free trip to Cancun) From the PA announcer, "this halftime shot brought to you by the Panther Prowl Bar and eatery located off of North Ave, as always if the panthers win, all fans in attendance will receive a free drink, and all taps and appetizers will be half off for the remainder of the evening" " see you at the prowl panther fans" Of course with a fan roar to end the announcement. Maybe too lofty of a goal this early in the game, but I really see this as something that can help the program significantly, and if anyone can make it happen sooner than me, I will become your number one patron Haha, good stuff. You are truly a man with a plan, and I will gladly lend my help in any way I can in your future endevours, Buppie. Please keep us updated, as I know I am not the only person who's curiousity and interest have been raised due to hearing your ideas...

Keep in mind the Gasthaus could be vastly improved over what it currently is with new leadership. I agree this is the hands down best starting option. MU uses the Annex much in the same fashion the Gasthaus could be used, if done right. That place needs to be brighter and opened up a little bit. The makings are there, it's just a matter of something taking advantage of them.

I'm looking into how to apply for a government stimulus loan to start a small business. Tricky part will be selling a restaurant bar. Maybe get that mathew lesko book No but seriously it might not be a bad idea to look into a stimulus loan

Also, Ive never been, but it would probably be a good idea to talk with the owner of the annex, might help us to get some research on this type of business. Might be able to use financial forcasts and so on from their experience.

MU owns and operates the Annex. Not to mention, you wanna know how the Gasthaus and Rec Center should be run, look no further than here: www.marquette.edu/amu/annex/

The annex is actually put to great use by MU, the reason I believe it's so successful is that MU fans/students always know that the games will always be piped in, no matter what channel, feed, pay per view, etc. its on. The annex sells itself that way and its the #1 thing. From what i've heard from you guys the gasthaus doesn't do that, to me that's the #1 thing it should be doing.

I am 100% with ya, jivitz.
I wish there was a way to get me working there. Give me the chance and a small amount of money and I'll put it to good use.

I saw this post from 2008 that 2023 students could maybe get some talking going.
