The Ghost Of Grey Goose!

8isenough · May 1, 2003

At a bar last night and a guy walked up and asked for Grey Goose..The Bartender says Grey Goose???!!! The guy says ya, Grey Goose! Bartender says well dont you know that it is made in France? He says no I did not, I guess Ill have Kettle one. A little later the same thing happens with another customer. I could not believe it... When I go to a bar I want to drink...I do not got to hear the bartenders poitical views...anyways a friend of mine shows up and orders a Grey Goose Martini, Bartender again feels the need to tell a customer that it is made in France..My friend says I dont care I want Grey Goose please. (This is the part that blows my mind) I watch the bartender go back to make the drink and he whispers to the other bartender and says "screw it Im making it with Kettle One" AND HE PROCEEDS TO MAKE THE DRINK WITH KETTLE ONE!!!! Can you believe this guy? I tell my friend what he said and that he did not use Grey Goose in his Martini...Well my friend is a V.I.P. member at the resteraunt (Morton's steakhouse) and instead of saying something to the bartender at the time he just wrote a nice little E-mail to the corporate offices this morning. I dont want this guy to get fired but he's got to realize that his job is to make drinks not impose his political views on others. If someone asks for Grey Goose pour the man some Grey Goose Gosh Darnit!!

Funny story 8>>

$hit, I can afford to drink Grey Goose so rarely, that I dont think me boycotting it would make a bit of difference either way. Its good stuff & Ill probably continue to order me one or two (every now and again...and again...and again) at one of my fine, local drinking establishments

FWIW - I do make a "conscious" effort to drink locally... Around here we drink Evan, Turkey, & most Miller products about 90% of the time (chased w/ the occasional Hornito's or Patron shot). Now those companies, on the other hand, do NOT want to lose me as a customer

They should make a honorary member on the Board of Directors for all the execs kids I put through college with my insane consumption of their products!
