Before We Go:

Has Gary Ever Been: While visiting his outlaws in-laws on the East Coast, has Gary ever made a trip to the Inlet Harbour Lounge and Liquors in Riviera Beach and Singer Island, FL. Apparently the bar hasn’t been updated since 1986. It has a great bourbon selection, as one Screencaps reader wrote:

The liquor store was what you’d expect to see (like any average store), but my wife and I went into the lounge, and it was like walking into an 80s dive bar! Wood paneling, people smoking and drinking, bar and bathroom haven’t been updated since 1986. Smelled like smoke and mildew, perfect! Reminded me of my dad and his buddy going out on the buddy’s boat, with me tagging along, circa late 80s / early 90s, then after docking and cleaning the boat, going to a place like this. (I was a teenager.) And yet they have very very expensive Pappy and other rare bourbons. Fun option vs a fancy bourbon bar, and arguably cheaper!

Home Improvements: Donna Kelce is remodeling? Does Gary have any handyman tasks he’s looking to tackle this spring?
