Burt?s Butcher Shop made an agreement with our company, that they would cater 31 steak dinners on Super Bowl Sunday at about 7:00 pm. Usually when two people make an agreement it is a done deal because that is just good business. This agreement was made a two about weeks before the Super Bowl. All of our staff had collected the money to pay for this dinner plus a generous tip was to be added to show our appreciation for Burt?s doing this for us on a Sunday when they are closed. Initially the dinners were supposed to be delivered. Then about a week before the deal was still a go but we would have to pick the dinners up, not a problem. Then on the Friday before the Super Bowl I was told that something came up and we would have to pick up the dinners at 12 noon knowing full well that no one would want to eat a steak dinner that was cooked 7 hours ago. I feel this was just made up to get out of the deal Most of the 31 people were Burt?s Butcher shop fans that is why we chose Burt?
