LACKAWANNA COUNTY, Pa. People who come to the VFW Post 25 in Scranton have gotten used to seeing the seats at the bar roped off with a sign that says bar seating prohibited.
But in just a few weeks, that s all going to change. Got my seat reserved. I ll be right here where I m standing almost, laughed Mike Gavin. Just a relief to be able to sit down at the bar! You know a lot of people come in, even myself if I go somewhere and I sit in the back room, I feel like I m playing bingo like I m at a bingo hall, said James Kuchwara, commander of VFW Post 25.
