Hopefully that isn't the only reason you think it's the right thing to do lol

I don't light uncontrollable grease fires at my house. I used to be a firefighter and it's the right thing to do

Come on, please read the material you post before creating a BS, nasty headline like that.Β  "Accused", as if it was happening now, and not clearlyΒ  resolved, and "running out", to imply it was an intentional and spurious, criminal act. LoadedΒ  and extremelyΒ  misleading language to lure people in to read this crap.

Β 

And you give publicity, and lend legitimacy, to what seems to be a radio station not objectively reporting the news, but doing something much different. Later on that sameΒ  page:Β  'Full List Of Buffalo Bills Who Have Been Arrested Since 2000',Β  with a big picture of each man.Β  So, a clear agenda there--why decide to stoke the fire?

I wouldΒ  be embarrassed for posting this, weeks after it it was clearly resolved.Β  And for that scandalous, sensationalized topic heading, when it is crystal clear from the article that it was a mistake--and was resolved completely.

Β 

Shameful, but not Cook.

So, of course, I dont know the entire story here.

Β 

But, to me, Venu comes off looking poorly for filing charges so quickly.

Β 

Lets face it, those bottle probably cost $100-150 wholesale.Β  So floating Cook the $$$ for a few weeks shouldnt put them out of business.

Β 

Seems to me they (Venu) should have made CERTAIN that Cook had been notified, and then given him a week or two before filing charges.

Β 

On the surface, they (Venu) seem like d!cks to me.Β 

Venu is saying that they never filed charges for what it's worthΒ

Leaving aside the fact that it would appear that no charges were filed, why exactly should the comapny have to "float" Cook the money or make CERTAIN (your Caps) he has been notified? Because he is a Bill? Because he is famous?

Β 

Would you expect them to do all that if it was Joe Bloggs who had absconded (whether witingly or unwitingly) without paying the bill?

Β 

Why should a company have to incur a loss (even if it is only for "a few weeks") through no fault of their own.

Β 

If that is your definition of dickish behaviour ...Β Β

I have done this before, not $850 but I did go back and pay it back. Β I used to be a bartender and its the right thing to do.

Doesn't the establishment open the tab with your credit card?Β  Any place I ever opened a tab, I did so with my card first.Β  Perhaps that isn't standard practice?

I've dashed without dining, does that count?

Β 

Story time: Β Went to a restaurant, was seated right away. Β We were near the kitchen door on the main path for all the servers to go back and forth. Β Waited 10-15 minutes (with menus) without a single person stopping to ask for our drink order or anything. Β Decided to just leave and go somewhere else. Β That place is no longer in business. Β 

I have done that a few times. It is reflection more on the establishment than on you.Β

Walked out on a $850 bar tab maybe he was a little drunk 🧐. Hopefully it was an honest mistake.

How much one drink and eat to run up a bar tab of $1000+??!!

I’ve never run a tab at any establishment without them running my card first … so this should have never been an issue in the first place

Isn’t that the very definition of a tab?Β

I am very confused by the entire situation, did the business allow him to run up a $1000 tab and not ask for a credit card? Did he think he could drink for free because he is famous, which happens around here sometimes? This story seems like the business is trying to embarrass him, especially if he has paid the bill since.

Yes that is exactly what they did. Β  They issued a letter explaining exactly how it all went down from their end. Β He squashed it, seems shady but it’s a moot issue. Β

Certainly a way to attract more business from Bills players who tend to be highly paid and spend a lot at bars.
