I did not realize this, and now I completely understand...
I have had mixed dealings with Fontana, some incredibly good, some not so much. Overall, I think it fits us best. I personally prefer to bring my own, because they generally do not sell the bourbon we enjoy in the bar, and since my friend owns a brewery I moonlight at, we also like to bring beer to share with our friends. It is too bad that because of past events these privileges have been taken away, but rightfully so. As stated before, I don't think any other group gets the same treatment we get in regards to the lobby area, but that is no longer the case.
I will continue to bring my own and hopefully fly under the radar, if we are in the lobby for an extended period of time, I certainly have no problem buying a few drinks from Fontana, but I am hoping he will be as cool as he has been in the past, as long as everything is under control and looks on the up and up
