We haven’t been to the square in a while so last afternoon we went to LSL for music on the square. During happy hour I went to the bar on the square and ordered a double Absolut soda and a double Jack and ginger ale. $18 was the total. Is that the price now for a double premium? I remembered $6 each. I am not complaining and just paid, tipped and moved on because there was a line behind me . I think I will wear a tank top next time

I noticed the prices have gone up at the corner bars also. I like the bars that offer half price on everything rather than just well drinks during happy hour.

Maybe they were punishing you for the sin of ruining a fine whiskey like Jack Daniels by mixing it with ginger ale.
What a waste.

$18.00 total for 4 shots of premium = $4.50 per shot plus soda (which the company must buy, cup and employee wages) while wearing a totally inflated priced Tommy Bahama shirt...just saying...ok

Yea, it doesn't seem that $4.50 is out of line. I've paid up to $9.00 for a shot of Jack Daniels (neat of course)

Prices are up on just about everything. I had no idea of those kind of prices for drinks on the Square. I purchase very little outside drinks. We purchase what we care and drink it with friends or family at home. I see too many “over indulging” on the squares and restaurants in TV and then getting in their cart or vehicle heading home or elsewhere.

I ordered a shot of Crown neat at a bar and the bartender gave me a totally blank look. He didn't know what I meant! Is it such a "boomer" terms that younger people don't know what it is?

Shirts do matter. I got crap for the shirt I was wearing the other day from one of the golf ambassadors. My shirt was well within the published dress code. A button down collared shirt with sleeves that went almost to my elbows. My shirts label said Carhartt, not Tommy Bahama, Tommy Hilfiger, or Izod. Apparently the ambassador has a thing against Carharrt, or any shirt that has a pocket. I like the pocket for my T's and divot fixer, and it cost about 1/4 the price of a shirt from one of the hoity toity apparel companies. Also, Carhartt represents the average working class Joe, which is my style. I told the ambassador that the dress code is posted in every pro shop if he wanted to check it out. I don't think he was aware of the dress code since he was working at Hacienda Hills, and their pro shop was torn down?
