Notable quotes
“I describe At the Wallace as a divey sports bar with games. It's always a lively place.”
“There is, because of where the beer tap is and because you can walk a full 360 degrees around that big beer tap, it's a phallic bar.”
“At the Wallace was at one point, and it still feels very much like a home bar to me.”
“What would it take to make a pinball pro shop?”
“You are going to encounter, I should say, the chaos of the fried chicken that your opponent just ate before they played ball too.”
