My neighborhood sports bar abruptly closed after last call last night, announcing the day-of on Instagram yesterday.
On one hand, losing my Happy Hour home is a major bummer. I'm friends with the bar staff, took my friends there, and watched most of my sports there. Finding another bar will take a longer walk and the drinks are pricier elsewhere.
On the other hand, over the years I went, it was adding up as an unnecessary personal cost and its closing makes it a lot easier for me to cut back on my alcohol consumption - something I'm meaning to do going into this New Year.
