Food and Drink / Re: BBQ!
Last post by RAGER - October 28, 2024, 01:29:43 PMGrasslands BBQ just finished their pop up here at Ruse Brewing like they do every year. I didn't go because I just can't stand in that line. Sparklemotion and I attempted last year but there were already 300 people in line. The to some huge numbers. I'd bet they did $100k over the three days. I figured conservatively at $90 x 300 as an average. Low ticket is probably $40 and I've seen many get everything on the menu and that would be about $175. That's my math. They very likely could do more. I know a guy that works for the brewery. I'll see if I can get some numbers just out of curiosity.
They're closed up from mid December to mid March. Their normal schedule is open 2 days a week with a handful of pop ups. Imma try to head up to Hood River in a couple weeks before they close and before that drive becomes treacherous. It's a shit ton of work but if you do the math I think they're doing pretty damn good.
If you're on Instagram check them out.

Last post by Muffin Man - October 08, 2024, 02:17:28 AMLuckily the Les Paul's I've bought were sold off quick. A Black Beauty dud, '58 reissue (rare modern model, should have kept it, big mistake, not luckily, is worth many multiples now (not dreaming). Then, another Black Beuty dud. The two duds got booted quick. I'm want another, I guess. Not saying I'm all that smart, I should NEVER sold the modern 58. from an investment viewpoint. WHO CARES. Move forward
By the way, education is great if it works. If the cat is hungry for study/work. I blew a ton of tuition as did my parents' dough staring out the window dreaming (I own it, paid 1/2 working during college, no regrets) kindergarten-through college (ejected but later degree'd on 2nd attempt - phew! worthless crap I shredded the award. Junk mail. I can get a copy. never needed it. Moved ahead. Dream on. Listen to Aerosmith
