Booze Fighters were in Ft. Smith this week end for a fund raiser, I heard on the radio (ktcs) that several places of business refused to serve these fellow bikers, if any affected read this I would like for them to post who and where so they can be black flaged

No clue on the BF's ordeal. Maybe a no colors rule?? Not a 1%er club, so someone didn't have a clue. Shouldn't have mattered anyway if they want business, unless something has happened in the past.

I would tell any biker on I40 cruising thru Ft Smith to stop in Jake's Steakhouse. First time I went in there was summertime. Wearing a tank top, tatt's everywhere, beard, the whole deal. I'm a good sized ol' boy, and kind of an ugly bastard.

The owners Mom, I call her Me Maw. She sat next to me and chatted me up the whole evening, and made me feel like royalty. She is one person who doesn't judge based on looks. Everytime I go thru there I stop in and spend my money. Good food too..

Would like to say thank you to everyone that came to the restaurant this weekend. Fort Smith had a group of bikers that were in town , There were very few businesses that would even serve them. Landrys has no problem with any group of people as long as they respect me and my employees and the other patrons. These were the nicest group of bikers , no problems whatsoever. With the helps of the 1000 plus Boozefighters that came to downtown Fort Smith ,Ar to hold their Rally out of anywhere else. Landrys had a record 24 year weekend. Thank You Boozefighters, I'm still trying to figure out why other establishments wouldn't serve you. . Fort Smith could have so many conventions if they wanted too. Btw. The 2nd largest weekend was when Fort Smith hosted the Harley Rally and Bluesfest the same weekend. Am I the only one that sees a pattern here. Maybe I should run for Office. Lol

Sorry for the late reply but Most of the bars downtown had no problem with us. The fancy Emmy's German restaurant even put up with my dirty *** and my loud brother flirting with the whole wait staff having jokes with the other patrons while they were dressed in suits and ties and nice dresses and having some fun messing with the High Schoolers in their Prom dress.

We were there for our Spring Nationals.
