Burton's Thornton Park — Restaurant in Orlando

I'm Famous and I love Burtons:

One rainy evening, I found myself at Burtons Pub, a cozy spot known for its friendly staff and relaxed vibe. The place was buzzing with the usual crowd, each person immersed in their drinks and conversations. As I took my usual seat at the bar, I couldn't help but notice an unusual challenge the pub was running that night: a beer bottle balancing contest. The objective was simple but seemingly impossible—balance a beer bottle on your head for as long as possible.

Never one to shy away from a good laugh, I decided to give it a try. With a mischievous grin, I took a seat on the small stage set up for the contest. The bartender handed me a bottle of the pub's signature brew, and with a deep breath, I carefully placed it on my head. To my surprise, the bottle stayed perfectly balanced.

As I sat there, trying to keep still, the crowd's attention shifted towards me. Time seemed to slow down as everyone watched, waiting for the inevitable slip. But somehow, against all odds, I maintained my composure, even managing to crack a few jokes that had everyone laughing. The minutes ticked by, and I continued to balance the bottle with an unexpected grace.

Then, something magical happened. A couple of local journalists who had wandered in for a drink noticed my feat. Amused and impressed, they pulled out their phones and started recording. One of them even started a live stream, and soon, people from all over the city were tuning in to watch "the guy balancing a beer bottle on his head."

When the bottle finally tipped over—after an impressive 15 minutes—the pub erupted in applause. I took a bow, laughing at the ridiculousness of it all. The journalists approached me, eager to write a quirky story about the unexpected event. The next day, the headlines read: "Local Man Finds Fame Balancing Beer Bottle at Burtons Pub," and a viral video of my balancing act spread across social media.

Suddenly, I was famous for something utterly silly and unexpected. People started recognizing me on the street, chuckling and asking for tips on balancing bottles. I even got invited to a few local talk shows and events, all because of that one night at Burtons Pub.

To this day, whenever I walk into Burtons, the staff jokingly refer to me as "the Bottle Balancer." And I can't help but smile, knowing that my fifteen minutes of fame came from something as simple—and as silly—as balancing a beer bottle on my head.

Come be...

Definitely the most toxic, disgustingly lewd, disrespectful, abusive social environment that I have ever witnessed in 21 years of working in the hospitality industry. The entire staff should be fired and the business renamed and concept changed. Stay away! Do NOT bring celebrities into this place. They will immediately call the media and news reporters because they want to see a little blurb on television. Avoid this place if you value you and your friend's privacy. It is a very toxic social environment with very disrespectful lewd statements made regularly. It is not a normal LGBQT+ social environment and not normal for Orlando! This is not a a healthy social environment to bring your friends! I literally avoid walking past this bar and take side streets to avoid vulgar harassment and following down the sidewalk!
