Greektown Bathrooms

As a former General Manager of public facilities (bowling centers, in my
case), I can say a couple of things about this situation with a fair amount of
certainty. For one, cameras in public restrooms are downright illegal, so
trying to catch the thugs is iffy at best. Second, the pure vandalism in a
men's room is much worse than in the women's. Quite frankly, while the women are
bigger pigs with paper and trash strewn about in greater quantities, we
never had a toilet bowl smashed with a bowling ball in the women's room like we
did - repeatedly - in the men's rooms. That particular phenomenon was common
enough that if I found a really good deal on replacement commodes, I'd get
one or two extras because I knew we'd need 'em sooner or later.

Sound familiar, Slotguy?

Hi Slotguy;
I was there last Tuesday and already the soap dispensers were broken in the
restroom on the second floor near the casher, it seems you may need some
cameras up there and catch the sore losers who play havoc with the equipment.

Well Brian, as far as I know we've never had an issue with a bowling
ball yet, but someone here will think of it some day I'm sure...
