Free to play pool was good enough incentive to join the regulars on Sunday, but then I ventured to the opposite end of the bar only to discover what I now believe is the main attraction the outdoor oasis/ live music stage area. There was an intense game of wormhole going on as well as the televised bb game being displayed on a huge screen TV.
