Byrne JUL 12 1991 Assistant City Attorney 647 City Hall I� vITY A�fiO(�N�EY St. Paul, MN 55102 ' Dear Mr. Byrne: After our telephone conversation of July $, 1991, I do not wish to contest the serving of a minor at Twister's Bar on June 20, 1991. � ' My father, Henry R. Troje Sr. , is the sol owner of the bar. I , Craig P. Troje, manage the bar 100'� as of April 28, 1.991 , when my brother Henry R. Troje Jr. pass d away. Since th�en I have .taken over management. � The daytime business starts at noon with ne bartender. His name is Tom Smith. His main job is cleani g sinks and glassware since our day business is very slow. Tom works Monday thru Wednesday until 5:00 p.m. , Thursda and Friday until 8:00 p.m. Tom knows our views on checki g I.D.s and we have never seen him fail to check. Tom sat down with me on June 20, 1991 after the officers came to ch ck his I.D. He is sincere when it comes to his job and one '�of the most ��„��,' honest bartenders we"ve had. ' . ;:�� ° ;:- �� We were not sure that he had served a minor until the � � letter from you arrived. Tom claims he knew all our patrons �;A that day because as I stated earlier, our day business is ��` ;; 'F�; very slow. However, anyone can be distracted £or one reason '�` '� ��` or another and mistakes do happen, which I am �ure is the s �• � case here. � -`�-�� ->.,< Tom continues to work for us now and is r ally tough ` on checking I.D.s, even on regular customers. I believe he knows how serious this is and will continue to do a better job on watching I.D.s from now on. Just for your information, I would like t finish by explaining our evening rautine. �t 8:00 p.m. , Troy Munoz, my assistant manager comes on duty behind the ar and one bouncer comes on duty at the front d`oor Sunday thru Wed- nesday. They both check I.D.s. Thursday - S a urday there are two bouncers on the door lookirig at I.D.s -�nd two bartenders doing the same. We are not interes�ed in serving a minor and try very hard not to. We have actually been in heated arguments at the fron� door over unbank and Ramsey County I.D.s. Which we do not accept, T}�ank ou very much � � /� �/1 /L . !/ /_ A � --� b ?� .-. .-. .-. �' N � � rtf r-I �-I � �-�I ` U Cl ,� N Z3 co o� � ,� co o� � � -� C� cv � '� � �i �i � `� �i � 3� N O q � �+ \ \ �+ \ � 'c3 'Lf 3 U � � �j � O ^ � H � �^ � i0 M v � O th N N •rl N •ri ttl .� � .,..� .�{ N +� O � r-I � V f.1�U ch O ?+ ,3 r-I 3 N 3 rn A � � o � N f.� v U +� c0 C� Z3 N N 'd U1 � cd ,� � a' �^ ri �-I \ N � .� Jr N N .�' 'i T3 -rl � p f�+'�'� y'� �O � N � ?i� fd � ?i� �d a..� S�a .� C,) X .� � +� � A +� � .� i� \ � cd � 'd ,� «f � � tA � �-I � a� N a �- •a d o v� +� o +� o � � a �s � �+ � � u a M w -- � v, � M M cn � � •.� .c � � �, v N � � N � N � O � N � � � c�C c�dao V .N 3 � ° w o '� � `" � � ,� v u�i a'� � O r� cn �m � o .� � � ,.� .� � ,� � N � � •• I +� � 3 ,--i ,� +� `� � � c� R� � � � N p A ,¢' � � � 3w � R+ � •� � R Cl O ,� o •�-I o +� � � � � � N � � � '� .� � � � �o > as � 3 � � o �, � a � aroi aroi a�i a�r o �+' N ° � � b b � � aNi ai aNi ai o �� ° � � � a�i � N d m +� +� � +� ',..� O N U ''� � � cr s� a a � � � , ,, � s� •�' � � � �'' a� a o 0 0 0 ' � a� a� '� ''� +� � � m � a� � � � o �--i ,s� � � •� � �, t� � ,� � O � �l O O O O •� U N � .p � � �� .1-1 � ''i R'i Z Z Z Z �-' � � C,) O � .{.� N •.a U ,� (� k; �� '( ��.�3�`j � � a„� � O `v � ^ O � � � �: �-1 4"� .1-� � �.��!

Tom claims he knew all our patrons that day because as I stated earlier, our day bu iness is very slow. However, anyone can be distracted for one reason or another and mistakes do happen, which I am sure is the case here. Tom continues to work for us now and is rea ly tough on checking I.D.s, even on regular customers. I believe he knows how serious this is and will continue t do a better job on watching I .D.s from now on. Just for your information, I would like to inish by explaining our evening routine. �lt 8:00 p.m. , T oy Munoz, my assistant manager comes on duty behind the b and one bouncer comes on duty at the front d`oor Sunday t ru Wed- nesday. They both check I.D.s. Thursday - S atu day there are two bouncers on the door lookirig at I.D.s and two bartenders doing the same. We are not interested in serving ; a minor and try very hard not to. We have actua ly been in heated arguments at the front door over unban and Ramsey ' County T.D.s. Which we do not accept.
