    Al Capones

    $6??? Ouch! Hope they at least made it strong. Most bars (not including Scottsdale, of course!) in the US do $4 wells and $5 top-shelf.

    Lopez Aceves

    And the other rumor is that it was built off-kilter, so now it's not level and nobody has money to start over. Unbelievable! Absolutely sick how people can just screw around with the Penasco skyline, abandon these projects and get away with it. And it was Larry Large???

    AZ/Mexi Border Blog
