Jerry Criss

I decided not to stoop to your level Dennis Christian, but lets set the record straight. You cant talk or reason with a posse of drunks when all they want is to shout racial slurs, make bodily threats, and break beer bottles on the public sidewalk. Less than 30 days before your reception, you came to see the venue, and I quoted the room, and 8 cases of beer. You decided to put $400 of that on a bar tab, of which $200 was reserved for you and the band. I gave you prepaid discounts, and told you the price for mixed drinks would be $4 to $5 when the tab ran out. You agreed to the terms, I gave you a written contract. Later you start asking for free beer, so I agreed to throw in two cases. Then I find out after the event that you guys smuggled in beer my distributor doesnt even sell. After three hours into what started to be nice evening, I informed you that the prepaid beer and bar tab was getting low. I even refunded you the $200 bar tab left for the band. I came to talk to you and your brother walks up and snaps, then you snap. All of a sudden, Im surrounded by a group of shouting thugs. Never have I been so disrespected and slandered! So yes, I called the police and shut it down. Have a nice life! Anyone that knows me, or has been to Starlights knows that Im fair, very accommodating, and unbiased. More than 10 years in operation, my staff and I are always courteous and professional, and run this business with class.

This theater is awesome. They always run promotions and cater to the kids when its a kids movie. The price is not too expensive and they serve hot food and beer. I will always go here when I can.
