January 16^th, 2010

There are so many great resources online these-days that mongers can plan out their AC trips like Operation Desert Storm.  Almost every business in AC worth anything has its own web presence by now, and there are all of these super-helpful tools like AE’s interactive map and PIatNight’s Bar Data Sheets available; things that completely remove all of the guess-work.

Sure, for most veterans, they may seem unnecessary and like “overkill” maybe, and there are even some newbies out there who might prefer “guesswork” and exploring it all on their own.  However, there are a lot of people discovering AC who are not veterans and who want as much info as they can get.  I would venture to say that because of the internet, the “word” about AC is spreading at an exponential rate compared to 10 or 15 years ago when it was mostly just “word of mouth”.  Using some of these tools is like using an electronic “fish finder” gadget on your boat versus simply casting your rod overboard and hoping for a bite.

Now, while I wouldn’t call going to every last bar in AC to gather this data “hard work” exactly, it still must’ve been slightly tedious to accomplish accurately (especially after a few San Migs).  So, a lot of credit should go to the guys at PIatNight for doing it for us.

Newly updated for January 2010, here are the PIatNight Bar Data Sheets.  You’ll find the operating hours, (incl. Happy Hours), ladies and local drink prices, and EWR prices for each & every bar on Fields Ave and Perimeter Road.  Simply “right click” to download yourself a .pdf copy of each.
