SHould I suggest this to a new (old) bar?

Creedo,

A couple of years ago, I suggested wifi to a local poolhall as part of an overhaul to attract more customers. The establishment didn't have internet, only cable TV. I worked with the owner's son, together we found these pitfalls. In the end, the owner opted to re-cloth a few tables, moved tables around, and flipped cloths on the rest.

The OP can make his suggestion, but the business owner needs to justify the expense in additional customers.

My bad. Honestly I haven't run into a pool hall yet with no internet, but I guess they're out there. Maybe in some areas, the owner won't get the additional income needed to cover that monthly expense. I'd be surprised though - one guy might singlehandedly cover that extra expense, if he chooses pool hall A ten times a month over pool hall B.

Don't get me wrong, if I had to choose between good equipment or wifi but not both, then equipment wins all day.
