I've never been to Pantana Bob's, and now I never will. I'll set the scene: It was a rainy Sunday evening and I was meeting a few friends at an establishment across the road from Pantana Bob's. Unfortunately, the tiny parking lot was full so I was forced to look elsewhere for parking. I didn't want to go far because I had two girls in my car and I didn't want them to get soaked after our meal. Pantana Bob's parking lot was completely empty. Not a car in the lot. In fact, it looked closed. I parked my car and went to eat. The bar tenders, who must have been either bored or just bitter, called in a tow truck. \r

A few of the bar tenders then harassed me, made fun of me, and called me names as I dealt with the driver. They seemed intoxicated and demanded that the driver force me to pay the full $150 after he offered to only charge me $50. Now I'm just a college student, so that's pretty significant amount for me. I could tell the tow truck guy was embarrassed for having to do their dirty work. Anyway, I guess I learned my lesson, and I shouldn't have parked there. It's unfortunate that some people are just plain mean. As a student at UNC, it's likely that I would have visited Pantana Bob's with my friends. I know for a fact they've lost many potential customers. Not a very good way to run a business.
