Bars and clubs usually have some kind of atmosphere designed to attract a certain clientele or to make one feel like one belongs to that particular in-crowd. Why not go beyond lighting, maintenance, decoration, and the contents of the jukebox and just have symbols on the outside of the bar? These would
