If you travel like sam brown then odds are you and the yuppies like you will never go any where close to Tony and Andrew because they go to real places not just tourist attractions!!!

If I wanted to reply to every dumb thing said on this page it would not be possible without drinking, smoking, cursing, and offending all those narrow minded people out there. God knows we don't want to do that. Everyone knows the U.S is becoming a country that isn't free. you are only free to do what you want if no one is offended by it! these are probably the same people that got the law passed that says yes this is your bar in your building on your property that you pay taxes on but a bunch of people cried about the smoking so that is illegal now. if you are worried about your health stay out of the bar. and before any one tells me how bad smoking is I know I smoked For 10 years and quit about 4 months ago. but unless I own your bar I shouldn't be able to tell you to go out to smoke. and unless you own Tonys show he should be able to drink smoke and p!$$ off the world. more power to you Tony!!!

EVERYBODY CHILL!!!

It's e-n-t-e-r-t-a-i-n-m-e-n-t folks. If you want nice and polite, go to Samantha Brown or Rick Steves or that scholarly gentlemen (there are two.)

And hey, lay off the jock travel dude -- it's different. But, Tony is the man -- if you can deal with his snarkiness, his occasional impolite comments, and his off-the-cuff remarks.

Remember: it's not just food, it's not just travel -- it's "entertainment."

So lighten up. If you want the pure essence of a place: buy a travel book on it.
