Flanagan's first night drink orders


To the bartenders that work in jam packed clubs/bars -

Are there really ridiculous drink requests over and over like pink squirrel, dirty mother, zing a ling, friar tuck, etc.? No one besides the martini guy ordered a normal drink! I know they did that to show how discombobulated he was, but it seemed pretty ridiculous.

1 out of 20 drinks is something ridiculous.

Just as a club/ Bar visitor in my younger days..yes! There are some etiquette people ignore such as when things are rockin and rollin dont order crazy complicated concoctions..it holds up other orders makes it harder on the Bartender. . And your complicated drink may not be as tasty cause he/she had to be hasty...

There was obviously a demand for these types of drinks - hence his dream to open Cocktails and Dreams was able to come to fruition. If this wasn't the case there wouldn't have been a movie!

he should have just spent his time developing the next great drink umbrella.
