A word about drinking and driving...
W e take "drinking to excess" seriously at 3 Legged Cowboy.
This includes allowing any customer who may have had too much
to drink to be served a drink. Sometimes, they arrive here
"after the fact" that they have already had enough or too
much to drink. We make every effort to catch these at the
door, but if by chance they hide it well enough to get into
the building, our bar staff is trained and aware of symptoms
to watch for.
We are all here to have a good time. We serve alcohol.
That means customers are going to be consuming alcohol.
The tough part is that customer knowing when to cut back or
stop the alcohol intake, and switch to non-alcoholic beverages!
Our employees are trained to watch for these critical moments
and suggest alternative beverages, food, or leaving the club
if necessary in a taxi. It is not always easy to know when
that point has been reached, but we have to keep a constant
watch for potential problems.
3 Legged Cowboy offers a sizeable selection of Non-alcoholic
alternatives from water, juices, energy drinks, and soft drinks.
Coffee is always available, and is free for the asking.
Sometimes, your bartender may suggest one of these drinks,
and possibly insist that you have it instead of alcohol.
If this occurs, he is looking out for you, your safety,
and our license! We take drunkenness very seriously, and
will do whatever necessary to protect the customer, our
employees, and our license. Your safety inside our building
and getting you home safely are always a top priority at
3 Legged Cowboy.
Please remember that our employees will never intentionally
over-serve you, encourage you to over drink, or push alcoholic
beverages upon you. You are adults, and you should know your
own limitations, but that sometimes does not happen. It is
then that our employees will take over that decision for you,
and tell you politely that you should have a non-alcoholic
beverage and to slow down your consumption, eat something,
or possibly leave the establishment in a taxi. Please be
aware that a licensed premise is REQUIRED BY LAW to make sure
that an intoxicated customer does not drive a car. That may
mean taking your keys away, arranging a ride home with friends
or a taxi. The law further requires us to report any intoxicated
customer leaving the club to drive their own car, giving license
number of car and description of said car. That is not
something that we want to do!
A taxicab ride is MUCH less expensive than a DWI or DUI,
and certainly better than killing yourself or someone else.
PLEASE, cooperate if you find yourself in this position, and
accept the taxi ride in lieu of driving. We will all be safer,
and we will both avoid a mountain of legal problems!
Thanks for coming to 3 Legged Cowboy. Know your limit, stick to
it, and do NOT drive a car if you have had too much to drink!
