Reply to comment by Notfromcorporate in Maddie's closing by Mentalcasemama

Yeah if any of those places actually pivoted and tried to be open after the games, even with just a minor bar menu, I suspect they would have fared better. Seems like the Banner is always crowded after games and everywhere else was closed. Maddi's and Smokestack both have a great beer list and decent drinks, too. Why they close at 9 makes no sense to me.

100%. You probably don’t have time to go out to eat before a weekday game. You couldn’t go to these restaurants after a game, they were closing or closed. Is that Covid? Staffing? I don’t know. Ballpark probably didn’t help, but it’s like 70 days a year, it’s not the primary reason
