Your favorite sleeveless bartender broke his hand!
A N D
He’ll be out of commission for SIX WEEKS!
As most of you know, we in the service industry do not make money if we don’t work. It’s even worse when you can’t work during the holidays!
If you wanna “tip” Ben while he’s not able to work please send it to his Venmo! We will also have a BENS TIPS tip jar for him at the bar!
