Miami nightclub LIV blocks LIV Golf trademark application

There are a lot of unwritten rules about living in Florida of which the residents should be aware, but one is to always show respect to folks in the service industry. The Sunshine State has an economy based largely on tourism (also real estate scams and money laundering, but more on that later), and the rising tide of all boats is improved when those who come in from out-of-state pay bed taxes and buy the beverages.

And one specific group of people you always show respect to are the bartenders, servers, and security/door staff of any late night hotspot. What they do is hard work, they don't have time for fluff, and if you walk in with an attitude of “do you know who I am?” we can promise you: You'll never get a seat or a drink around here again, no matter how rich you are.
