Friday Night Shots – Filler Games
Welcome back to the bar! It’s been a whole five weeks, so sorry about that. One of the kegs exploded and we had beer all over the floor. Spent a number of weeks trying to save as much as possible rather than cleaning it… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Filler Games”
Friday Night Shots – A Quick & Dirty Top 50
