I just came upon a story about an Irish bar that offers free pool. It's called O'Terrills and is in a rough neighborhood in Atlanta. The owner of the bar, Rufus, built a 300 lb., waist-high robot that has glowing red eyes, high powered spotlights, a high res video camera that can transmit video up to 2 miles away, a water cannon, and a loudspeaker. Imagine hearing "This is private property. You are trespassing. Move on." It's controlled with a remote control. And yes, it chases vagrants...
