Tips & Warnings
As you progress through the game, the bars will be filled with more patrons and the bars will eventually flow in different directions. Take your time and try to serve each bar as evenly as possible to keep anyone from reaching the end of the bar ending your game.
Do not send a root beer mug to patrons who is watching the show. The mug will slide past them and break on the floor.
