    If you ask for bombay sapphire and club soda with a lime or orange twist, and they come back with a typical tanqueray and tonic, you gotta hope it's free. Otherwise you're gonna have a bad time.

      Well see thats where you are wrong, because like many stores certain bars only have certain drinks because of what type of bar it is, you will not find cocktails at a bar in iowa near the cornfields in a small town, you will find nothing but shots of jack and beer. So think about what you want to drink, before you go to a certain bar, because whether you like it or not, not all bars have every single drink, unless you're looking for 2-3 mix drinks like jack and coke, gin and tonic, and a daiquiri
