Great first meeting of a bunch of new friends. Will have to make this happen more often. Hopefully we can recruit more OSO members for the next time. Im now sober,:ernaehrung004: and looking back on alot of funny s#!t that happened....I dont know about you guys, but now that Im getting old, it takes me AT LEAST 2 days to fully recover. I was never like this. But I am willing to keep trying to get my recovery time cut down. Practice makes perfect !! :ernaehrung004:

For what its worth I caught the last few minutes of this and then read this thread here and I called Claudios today and talked with one of the owners.
I explained exactly what went on and told them about this thread, they were very apoligetic and wanted to contact the people involed to make this right and she also explained they felt terrible it happened and for sure dont like their customers treated in this way.
4195 give them a call and talk to Kathy Claudio, she really wants to rectify this for all involved.
Hope it works out.
( and no I dont have anytyhing to do with Claudios, like you I just hang there)
Just thought I'd at least tell them what happened, hope it helped

Could you imagine the lawsuit that could have been brought on had this girl not been saved?

I could just imagine the headlines. Claudios guilty of "overserving" drowning victim.

:drink:Update
First let me say I love this site, another OSO member was there Sunday when the incident occurred. This person contacted one of the owners at Claudios and told them what they saw and then asked me to contact the owner at their request. I have to say there must be a reason why they are the longest same family run restaurant in the US. The owner was very apologetic about how things happened and was working toward solutions to keep this from happening again. As I said I have been going there for 12 years and enjoy it very much and I am very glad the situation has been resolved. As a business owner myself I know how hard it can be when you have employees. So I guess I will see you all at Claudios on Sunday right?

I'll be there for sure to have another VooDoo juice bucket, oh ya!:evilb:

Pro did you have the red and black formula?

4195 all the drinks are on you right!!! Or was she not thath stupid :D

Best $10 you can spend at Caludio's!!!! :drink:

Yes I did the old 223LS, I seen what looked like the comotion over the girl and some bouncer being an ass-to be honest it was the second time I seen him being an ass, but who knows this thing could have happened just after I left and it would have been his third time being an ass.
I figured at least give the place a call, one to make them aware so it wont happen to me, two so you guys would at least have some kind of a say and hopefully all gets settled.
I started going to Claudios about three yrs ago when I first bought my boat, always heard of it and since I'm widowed with a daughter I figured I'd try it, better than taking your kid to the go kart track.
To be honest Suinday I had the best time there ever and was a little concerned when I seen a bouncer giving a girl a hard time about her small dog, then I seen what I believe was the after math crap of the girl falling in.
Again I didnt want to cross the line but I really thought Claudio's should know, hope it all worked out.
This place is a great site with great people and I enjoy meeting more at Claudio's.
I always said boaters are the best of the best.

Very happy to hear they "took care" of you Frank and gang...... I thought they would, once they heard the entire story. Like you Frank, I own a business, and totally understand that's it's tough to be on top of all your employees constantly....and once in a while a bad apple comes along and needs to be told "how to treat people who are treating US well".....IE.. the bouncer vs. the helpful customer!!!
