Choosing a Finish Location
A good finish location will have many of the following characteristics:
- Place orders at the counter – so each person or group of people can order and pay separately
- Various types of food – because not everyone wants the same thing (not even pizza)
- Open late – to allow at least an hour after the finish closes for protests, announcements, awards, and discussion
- Good lighting – so people can read the critique
- Plenty of room – so everyone gets a seat (including normal non-rallyist customers, if we don't have a room/area reserved)
- Near the rallye's end – because no one likes long final traverses to the finish

This is not as nice as others, but is pretty empty on Saturday nights. Could be noisy nonetheless, since they have pinball and arcade games.
