Chicago Bars Try New, Safe St. Patrick’s Day Practices | Eater Chicago

"A representative from Big Onion Hospitality told me customers shouldn’t expect the all-you-can-drink ticketed parties of past years; instead, Big Onion’s bars (which include Fat Pour Tap Works) are selling table packages for four or six that come with a bucket of hard seltzers, a bucket of Miller Lite, a bottle of Champagne, and a choice of appetizer. Patrons must remain at their own tables, and staff have rearranged the space to try to prevent mingling — precautions the operator hopes will limit over-consumption and make it harder for troublemakers to get away with inappropriate behavior." - Naomi Waxman
