Sleeper started a hotel bar and created a community. He owns a Sleeper's Bar in the Cascades Inn, and Brad sits at his bar pretty regularly. In fact, last weekend, at the first annual Sleeper's Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, Brad was the most honored honoree because he has lured teachers, coaches, and even his wife Jenn into this townie bar. As for Sleeper, he's a bit of a Forrest Gump, so we get to hear about his run-ins with everybody from RFK Jr. to TJD–and about his bar, of course. If you haven't been to Sleepers, get yer ass up there.
