To all who hear that Swanky's bar is a great place to visit if you are a Packer fan I would like to warn you about the stupid rule they have deceided to enforce recently. Being from Wisconsin and having gone to Swanky's many times I rounded up a group of friends to head down for the big Vikings vs Packer game on Nov. 1. I was turned away at the door by a snotty young kid who said that because I was wearing a Brett Farve jersey with an X through it that I was not allowed in. No Farve Jerseys are allowed because of the owner not liking him!! Are you kidding me. I had a huge X with blue painters tape and I was supporting the fact that I didn't like him either and I was turned away. I stood in front watching as more and more people who had taped off their jerseys were denied entrance into the bar. The FUNNY part is they let people with Vikings Jerseys into the bar. I think that is SO STUPID to deny someone who is SUPPORTING your cause of not liking Brett Farve but allowing people in of the opposite team who don't suport your dislike of Brett. What a stupid thing to do.... I will NEVER go back to Swanky's again and nor will any of my many friends/family from Wisconsin that live here after they heard how I was treated at the door. They snotty kid told me to not take it personally and just walk away! That owner really needs to think about what he is doing with his stupid rules!
