If you've ever been there — which, if you have the chance, you should, it's great — then you would.

(So my answer is yes.)

Have been there. Like it. But this is a bit... "perfect".

I have a hard time imagining Tim League fabricating this. It would seem out of character from the way he runs the rest of his business, at least.

But the most important thing is, the enforcement of the rules behind the scenario in the voicemail is unflinchingly real. And given how much that clashes with the over-entitled brat crowd, I have little doubt that there have been voicemails like this left on the Alamo machines.

it's fun to imagine it is, and it's great advertising either way...

Agree! Wasn't complaining; genuinely curious.

KXAN Austin News believes it is real and interviewed the CEO about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeMEr_vBzBk
