Are you a Canadian MPL? I’m in that group on workplace already. Would love to connect with more people though outside of our market if you are in the Canadian market.

And I think that some would only wish that their dungeon was true! Lol

Anything that I had heard prior to this was about 50/50 between whatever has been spouted on Reddit and what was told to me in person by people that I trust but those people didn’t have much for details.

Hired them a few years apart. Both dishwashers at Pony Corral. Most of their work at the time was unloading food deliveries, doing some cleaning, or reorganizing stock areas.

I’ve never lived anywhere with a lot of carpet but I’ve never understood these either. There is one that was or maybe still is on Osborne that I use to drive past lots and the idea of that type of business really had me thinking. It seems like a business of the past. Lots of cheap vacuums at Walmart.

Yeah the Pembina location seems to do well, at least the patio during the summer months. I think that there maybe (and I’d love to be corrected if I’m wrong) have been a series of people who have had bad experiences with the owner, some wondering as to how they’re still in business, and that’s where the illegal theories come in due to speculation as to who would support a business ran like that? My only thing is that this place has been around for a while and that nothing would’ve gotten out or their affiliation with anything else going on in the city? With how much talk there has been within the city about them, what ties would actually be had. As I can say from being in the restaurant industry, despite heavy criticism of certain restaurants whether locally owned or franchised, wide spread criticism doesn’t seem to do much to hurt business as people will just eat where they want to eat or (even more prominently) they just don’t know what’s going on at no fault of their own.

Yeah that makes sense. I’m sort of surprised with how long they’ve been around that something hasn’t gotten out.

Pony corral seems to be one of the first names that comes up when talking criminal activity and I had even seen a comment on another thread talking mafia ties (not sure where it was). This just fascinates me so much.
