I work at a bar that has no TV's. Some people hate it. Many other people spend their drinking time getting to know their friends in neighbors in a way they never would have if ESPN had grabbed all their attention. No TV's drastically changes a bars culture in pro-social way that I enjoy. I think that if my time tending bar was mostly people looking slack jawed at the TV over my shoulder instead of chatting, joking and debating all present I'd like my job a lot less.

Is there a pool table there ? It would explain a lot...

No pool table but a shuffle board table. Most the shuffle boarders are jackasses.
