We spotted this yesterday outside Burkes Blue Collar on Congress St in Troy. Burkes is a self-described "working class bar" with "cheap booze, nasty staff, and pretty good food."
Who says Obama has a problem with blue collar voters?

My friend and I were walking back to my apartment after the anti-fracking concert. I live near the corner of dove & Madison. The car & the damage were crazy. Half of the front was crumpled & the glass was shattered and almost out of the front window. It looked as if a something was launched right through the front dash & window.

Between Blue Collar Bar and the Troy Pork Store, you've been all over my neighborhood this week. Whats got you all into the "Pottery District"?
By the way, it seems the Fagbug spends a lot of time here too.
Everyone loves good hotogs and cheap booze!
