“It’s fun because, like, I will run my mouth because I’m not a Bills fan, so I will run my mouth with them. “And, you know, we’re all taking shots at each other across the bar as I’m just pouring the drinks up and all that and we’re all it’s it’s camaraderie. It’s really it’s a really good time. Everybody come down here for Bills Sunday, I promise. It’s a show, said Cameron Maxwell, a bartender.
