And where you go tends to define the people that are there.

What do you say your relative odds are of finding someone who isn’t a drinker at a bar?

Non-zero for sure. Also, not super likely as compared to a park or supermarket, eh?

So if you were going to find someone who wasn’t a big drinker (it mattered to you), hanging out at the bar all the time might eventually work out - but would be a pretty round about way of doing it, eh?

True!

In the case of my parents, my mom was drawn to this upper east side bar with her colleagues for the happy hour that promised free burgers for nurses.

She remains a thrifty gal to this day.
