I have been in Champs and other bars from what are called Redneck to Biker Bars...When you have bouncers, owners, waitresses and bartenders that stay sober there is less trouble than what you have at Champs... You pay to go into a place and you expect to be safe...For the bikers true biker clubs try to avoid trouble, but they are like anyone else they will defend themselves and what is theirs....Champs is a place that needs to be shut down.

you can take up for the bar all u want buddy.the truth is a knife did get pulled out in the bar and a man got stabbed several times..this fight never made it out the door like bud stated to the news.the man was cut up inside the bar and i think when this one is over with bud will be more carefull with his business if he is still open after this is all said and done.

First, I have also worked in this bar and to defend the bartenders, they do cut the customer off when they've had too much to drink. That doesn't stop their friends from going to the bar and buying it for them. Second, you can't blame the bikers for I know who witnessed this fight and an average everyday joe started the fight. These fights happen in every bar and just so happened it was at this one that night. I've been going to this bar for a long time, before and even after working there and have never seen weapons pulled. Some people just can't handle their booze and need to stay at home. It's a good bar and I will continue to take my business there. You go there for a good time, not to fight.
