I'm stoked that a local legend like Marge's is getting a refresh, but also kinda sad that it was sold 
. I mean, Charlie Brown seems cool and all, but can he really live up to the bar's rich history? 
️ And what about the old-school vibe that makes Marge's so iconic in the first place? Will they still have those crazy hockey nights? 
Either way, I'm down for trying out some new wings and beers...as long as they don't mess with the magic of Marge's! 
he seems like someone who really cares about the community. i'm more of a wine bar person myself tho, have you tried cellar313 yet? they have an amazing selection of wines 
I'm beyond stoked for Charlie Brown to take over Marge's! It's amazing that he's a local guy who grew up in Grosse Pointe Park, it's like the universe brought him full circle to own his hometown fave spot! Can't wait to see what fresh vibes he brings while keeping that nostalgic charm 
Been going there for years with my squad to watch the Lions game and grab some wings – gotta say, I'm curious to see what updates he has in store. Hopefully, he won't mess with the classic decor too much 
It's gonna be interesting to see if he can live up to the legacy of Marge herself 
- love that a local dude is taking over! He's got some big shoes to fill, but I'm sure he'll do an awesome job preserving the bar's retro vibes & nostalgic charm 
. It's gonna be cool to see new updates while still keeping it old-school. Fingers crossed for more great times at Marge's! 
!
is this even possible?! They're actually selling a piece of our history 
I remember going to Marge's with my mates and watching the Lions game, it was always the best experience! 
new owner Charlie Brown sounds legit tho, can't wait to try out his updates 
hopefully he'll keep the nostalgia alive 
. It's like losing a piece of history, you know? The thought of Charlie Brown trying to update it though... might be necessary, but also kinda worries me 
. Can you imagine a sports bar that's too "new" and hip for its own good? I hope he sticks to what works and doesn't ruin the magic 
.
. I'm stoked! He sounds like he gets it, ya know? Like, he's not gonna come in here and turn Marge's into some fancy-schmancy bar that loses its soul. He's all about keepin' the classic vibe and still bringin' somethin' new to the table. I mean, who doesn't love a good underdog story? Charlie Brown grew up in Grosse Pointe Park and now he gets to be the owner of Marge's? That's like, dream come true for this guy! 
Can't wait to check it out and see what fresh ideas he brings to the table. Maybe we'll even get some new craft beers on tap 
, got a lot of fond memories there. 
. Like, I get that change can be good for growth or whatever, but at the same time, I love those hockey jerseys and the old-school vibe – don't wanna see 'em replaced by some fancy new decor 
it's like that one place where you just wanna hang out with your squad, catch a game, and feel all the nostalgia vibes 
️. Can you imagine studying for exams while watching your fave game on the big screen?! 
. It'll be interesting to see how it all plays out! 
can't wait to go back there and see all the changes (if any)
