I mean, the venues get extra business >from the deal, sounds fair that they should foot the bill. That they do. Unluckily, of the two places locally that have done that, one is WAY over priced and gets ticked off when we're there past 9pm. And the other one will gladly stay open but only serves coffe and a few premade sandwichs. So in normal situations I'd vote with my money and go somewhere else. But we're stuck going to one or the other of these places because they're paying and they continually come up on the voting list, plus the votes get weighed in their favor. One of things we've started doing is voting ahead of time for better places, but still using the meetup to get new memebers. Rick
