Description:
Concept:
Double Decker Bar Bus which is remodeled inside as a bar, which riders pay an admittance fee ($25) to ride. A meeting place is designated where all riders meet and board, then drive to 4 different venues that evening (which have been predetermined) where they will spend an hour and a half at each location. Bars pay a small commission for bringing customers to their bars regularly throughout the month. In addition there is room for revenue for advertising inside/outside the bus, and of course drinks which can be purchased on board while in transit (yes this is legal, i have checked). The options are endless: gay night out, college night (pick up at designated university and drop off at university when complete), ladies night, singles night, wine/bistro night, etc. There's also a gap in the market for night tourism. If someone is in town on leisure or business and want to go sight seeing or out on the town, their options are limited; this fills that gap in a fun, unique way.
