The same company owns a bunch of bars in San Diego, so I don't think they can claim ignorance here:

As many people have said, there are SO MANY different ways you can market this without being insulting to the people who will spend the preceding five days giving you tens of thousands of dollars.

They can't even spell Pee Chee folder correctly. And they are basing that they attract a hip geek croud because they have Pee Chee folders as placemats?!

Obviously a huge bite to the hand that feeds them.

Ok I wondered what they were trying to spell there. Lol. That didn't seem right.

I went to one of their bars in PB a couple years ago (right before SDCC) and it was horrible.

Barleymash is nice, though, and they DEFINITELY have an SDCC menu, so it's not like the proprietors don't know what SDCC entails.
