Jack's tavern mostly took care of locals. A teacher or a contractor people leaving work people going. First shift or second it was open. You'd only see people on third if they got let out early.
Thats why it was weird it was Uncle Chip's favorite bar. He was well dressed, a therapist for pilots or something he told his nephew once. He liked this place because people didn't pay him much attention, and when they did they'd actually talk to you.
There were a few small TVs so the people at the bar could watch. More protection from awkward silences. Sometimes there was sports sometimes a sort of talk show. A few people would yell at it or something.
He didn't know he just liked it.
"Some things you don't have to explain."
His nephew liked Chip because he liked to listen. A lot of older people would tell there stories, like they were in a rush and at any minute they could go.
But Chip seemed to really want to know what was going on in your life. At your age, in the world.
