SPACIOUS
CRAPPER FOR A SPACIOUS BAR
By David Frank

If I'm walking
through the pedestrian mall late at night after drinking at some bar and realize
I have to go pee, then I'll purposely walk into It's Brothers (as long as they're
not busy) and use their pisser. No, it's nothing that rivals a top-notch restaurant,
but Brother's bathrooms are pretty decent for a popular college town bar.
Unlike some big bars, Brother's bathroom has more than one urinal and toilet.
In fact, it has 4 urinals, 3 toilets, and 3 sinks to boot.
It's most
impressive (and hygenic) that the urinals have automatic flushers.
Very rare
for bars indeed. However, 2 of the urinals have some chipped porcelain,
which begs the question, how did these chips occur and was the guy
in the middle of taking a leak when they did occur?
Another difference between Brother's John and other bars is the white
tile walls and floor. Along with the good lighting, this use of white
helps make the bathroom seem bigger than most others. The main downside
is that the dirt on the floor or walls (or whatever other stuff manages
to touch the whiteness) is highly visible. But since there are no fece
or vomit stains on the walls or floor like so many other bars in the
ped mall, this showing dirt is acceptable.
However,white is not the sole color used in this bathroom. There are
black stalls and tiles and sink counters. This black and white motif
gives an attractive look for a place, that is rarely known have producing
anything attractive.
