Last night we went out for dinner at one of our favourite restaurants - a vietnamese place that always has good food. The owner has beent trying out new things to bring people into this locations, and one of the things was a special for game night. Now admittedly Jp and I are not sports fans, and I know many people who are opposed to TVs in restaurants but last night I found out that I really didn't like watching a UFC fight during my meal. Come on people, men bloodying each other up just doesn't seem so appetizing. It almost felt like I was watching a dog fight, as these two guys were all swollen and bloody and at times they seemed to be moving so slow and powerlessly as if it was instinct to keep punching the other guy. It reminded me of those nature programs where they show two insects involved in a 'to the death' type of combat, one might already be dead, or one might be missing his head or some other important part, but the body's reflexes cause it to keep going anyway.
Next time I open the door to a restaurant and see a UFC fight on the TV, I know that I will turn right around and go someplace else. How about you? What do you think of TVs in restaurants, or UFC matches during dinner?

Not exactly nice dinner programming :(
Pho and fighting! Excellent.
I'm with you. I don't mind T.V.'s in restaurants, per se, but management should be mindful of what is on.
