Craig [Conover’s] been in a few times, but Craig kind of has toned it down lately. I’ve got a ton of friends, and it’s just great to have them in there and everybody loves it. And it’s just nice to have arguably the hottest spot in town — I know things don’t last forever, but right now everybody’s all smiles and they’re lovely.”
