Your worst customer in five words or less: Arthur Kade. Seriously, he is everything that's wrong with this city.
What's the worst thing you've ever seen at your bar?: Arthur Kade. Don't worry, he's now banned for life.
Thanks to an anonymous tipster, we now know that Arthur was banned from The Franklin for basically being a cheap fuck, and a liar. Surprised? From what we're told, Kade lied to bartenders about being comped by the owners/managers, and never paid his tab. No idea on the amount of said unpaid tab, but all those Red Bulls sure add up fast! Actually, The Franklin seems like the kind of bar that wouldn't even have Red Bull, so no telling what he was drinking and refusing to pay for.
Our tipster also mentioned that Kade isn't even allowed in front of the bar. Bouncers actually mentioned this to our tipster as Kade walked by last Friday night - they won't even allow him to stop and talk to anyone there!
Keep in mind this is the establishment that Kade bragged about receiving a "hand delivered VIP only invite to their opening over the summer. Way to wear out your welcome Arthur!
We also have it on good authority that Arthur is soon to be banned from another Philly nightspot, for reasons as simple as being himself. We'll wait and see if it pans out and let you know when it does!
Here's to hoping this trend continues, and Philly's "favorite son" (gag) is soon banished from every eatery, club, and street corner in the city.
