Wannaknow,
Maybe another night! Gee, Flowers outside?? I thought that, according to our city leaders, that is all it takes to get business BOOMING!!! Do you think I will be able to find a seat??
I have plans Wednesday evening, and I may run into some of the regular posters from here. If so, I'll offer to visit your establishment and throw forty bucks on the bar and we'll drink until it's gone!!!

Hey, if you two want to get out for a drink I have a bar just waiting for you. I'll even buy your second drink, lol. Look around while you're there and you might want to buy it. Heads up . . . we have flowers all around outside but you'll probably never make even close to 1.2 million.

Gee, Mr. Irisner:
You wrote:
Gee, Mike, you are also so negative Are you suffering long term constipation or something?.
He has been has been there since the mid 80s for sure. What is that? 25 yrs?
Nice guy? I bet I know him much better than you and I think that for the most part that is true.
I realize that the Cash is suspect and that is why I said I hoped it was just skim Money and not part some big Criminal activity.
I did say that he loved his Money a little too much, but that could be said of a lot of People on here!
Chill a little bit.
Just for the record, for the rest of you, I am NOT anti-gambling, nor anti-drinking, nor any of that. People that actually know me, know that for an actual fact!!! |

The owner is a good customer of mine, and I also patronize his business.
I don't know him well--but know him well enough.
Considering his clientele, type of business and his area, I think that he runs a good operation.
I hope that he survives this situation as well as possible.

People want these things.
The self-righteous big brother will never win this fight, and should spend more of their time policing their own imo.

Nice guy??? Matter of opinion. Nice local business??? Fills a need, seems to do well. Good food??? I do agree here!!! Also the only place left in town where one can get frog legs!!! (Although I haven't seen the menu for quite a while.)
Depends!! Generally speaking, no, not illegal. But it is illegal if it is part of a gambling operation, drug operation, or proceeds of undeclared income. (This is just IMHO. I am not an attorney, nor am I accusing anyone of any of these things, or other illegal activities.)
$1.2 million is what was reported in The Journal. Take it for what it's worth.
Yes, it is. I have been told that it used to be difficult to get a seat in there on Thrsday, Friday, or Saturday. Not so much anymore. Two of the long-time, regular, popular bartenders are gone.
Clientele would probably patronize the Mayfield Inn (same owner) a block away, or the Lefferson Inn. (Neither of these have food, though.)

Nice guy--nice local business--good food
illegal to have a lot of cash?
Is this amount actual?

What would Mayfield do without this place?

30 years??? Has it been that long??? I used to stop there occasionally while Project 600 was under construction and start-up (about 1966 through '70), and he did not own it then. He has owned it since I've been back in town (mid-1998).

Mike Wieser. I think he has owned it for right at 30 yrs now. He is a decent guy who loves his Cash a little too much and Mr Presta is probably right, the money is "hopefully" skimed for purposes of Tax evasion over many Years. I say hopefully because I would be disappointed if he was into something very distasteful. I have heard Rumors but won't repeat them and will hope they are untrue. |

Yes, I was using the fictional "Mr. Bill" as in "Bill's Open Door Cafe", the bar and grill where the $1.2 million was confiscated. It has been owned by someone named Mike Weeser (sp?) for well over a decade now.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh, Nooooooooooo!!
I take it the "MR. BILL" you're alluding to isn't the claymation Gumby figure of former Saturday Night Live television fame??
Surely you must be refrerring to a Middletonian that we know??

Vet,
I doubt that the proprietor was involved in drug trafficking. My guess is that the $1.2 million was from years of unreported income: Profits from the machines, check cashing fees, etc., all of the things that are tough for the IRS to track, and all cash transactions. As usually happens when a big wad of cash is discovered, the IRS will soon be in town wanting to know where it came from and ready to confiscate it. Mr. Bill better get ready for audits as far back as the IRS can reach.

Large amount of money found in a bar on Burbank St. in Mayfield. Mayfield residents acknowledge there is drug dealers and drug activity on an on-going basis at an intersection involving Burbank and a cross street and have requested numerous times that police patrol the area to inhibit this activity. Coincidence?????

People need to worry about themselves, and quit intruding in other peoples personal decisions. Whether you want to gamble, smoke, or....... carve "X's" in your flesh with a butter knife, your an adult, you should have the right to do as you please as long as you don't infringe on others rights/freedom.
It's against the law to handle snakes and buy raw milk. What the hell is going on??? MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS |

Randy,
I have been told by usually very reliable sources that it wasn't "just laying around"!
Also, these same reliable sources tell me it is not as some of you think. They say that these machines are not "just for a few quarters" but are for 50 cents (minimum) to as much as $4 per spin. (And some newer machines may be even higher.) The "jackpots" can be as high as $4,000.00!!!
That is what I have been told...I couldn't swear to it in court.
