Also, if you have a Birthday then message us as the Birthday girl or boy gets in free and has a table of their choice reserved. Last Mouthful O' Jam I got out shirted by a regular Mouthful goer and a very loud Hawaiian so I thought a theme this time could be loudest outfit to win a few free drinks, odds are on myself to win as I don't like to be outdone.
