How often do you turn up to a bar on your own unplanned, expecting to see friends there?

Back when I used to hang out at bars far too much, quite often. However it probably wasn't the healthiest of behavior.

If you make a bar into your "local", then you can do so whenever you like.

That's pretty much what every local bar is. Have you never seen Cheers... that's what bars are. That's what being a regular is. The other regulars become your friends.
