This story really brought me back to my younger days…

Because there was a bar my friends and I used to frequent in our college days and we used to put five bucks in the jukebox and we’d play Meatloaf’s “I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That)”…over and over again…

In case you were wondering, that song clocks in at around twelve minutes long, so you can imagine how annoyed the staff and other bar patrons would get.

It was a glorious time!

But enough about me: check out what this person had to say!

The bar said patrons only want the jukebox, so I complied.

“I went to a local bar today to watch the College World Series final.

Bartender says they can’t play the sound for the game because more patrons want to play the jukebox than watch the game.

There are about 12 people in the bar total, including my party of 4. This seems silly, seeing as how it’s a sports bar and there aren’t any other major sporting events occurring at the same time as this game.

I decide that since the patrons want the jukebox, the jukebox is what they’ll get.

Let them have it!

I cue up the Cotton Eyed Joe by Rednex 6 times in a row and pay the extra to bump it to the front of the queue.

After the first play through. The jukebox skips to a different song. We call the manager over, ask him to refund our jukebox money since he won’t play our song, and he says he’d rather listen to Cotton Eyed Joe 6 times than refund the money.

On second thought…

He comes back a few minutes later, hands us $13 cash to cover the songs and turns on the sound for the baseball game. Turns out his patrons didn’t want to listen to the jukebox that badly after all.”
