What's with this guy.....because the parking lot is empty, and because his car is incredilby polished and waxed......he thinks he should get TWO parking spaces??

By the way, the owner of this car, after two coats of polish, and two coats of wax......

is NOW drinking several delicious dark ales

Piedmont.....wait, you mean the Fremont Theater, right?? I remember when Yes was there....I couldn't make it.......funny thing is.....I love going to SD....my wife and I both have a lot of friends there....used to go to SD on vacation a lot when our kids were young......damn, that was a long time ago!!

BTW.....SLO brew sold.....someone bought it out, and I haven't checked it out since......Farmer's Market on Thursday night is still a kick!! When I first came to SLO in '77 to go to Poly, Thursday night was cruise night in SLO, and the high school kids cruised up and down the main drag where Farmer's market is now....interestingly enough, back then.......NOTHING was open at night here...the place just shut down after 5pm!! Gotta love Thursday nights now......fresh veggies......BBQs going..good food....good drink.....free entertainment......great crowds.....small town Americana!

I don't know. Taking two parking spots anywhere is asking for a key job. In my opinion id park way to the left side of that space and hope if someone parks next to me they would not be close enough for a door ding.

OK....now you are missing my tongue-in-cheek comments here, lol!! This was taken at about 6:30pm tonight in an empty bank lot!! Oh, and....yeah, it's my car

I agree however, I NEVER take two spots.....I just park really, really far away from anyone else

For a minute there, I thought you were going to disgrace a bimmer owner. Never take 2 parking spaces unless you own the land in which the parking lot sits

Nice shiny car!!

OMG! That is depressing! I LOVED that place. I've shot commercials in SLO, and always brought the crew in for some Pool and some of the best beer on the west coast. Major bummer.

So where does one inbibe a good hand-made brew in SLO now?

SLO Brew is still there.....and I suspect their brews are the same. There really aren't too many other, if any, small or micro-breweries here. There are, however, a ton of pubs to visit.....what with this being a college town and all!!
