The words “oh the year was 1778” will raise the hairs on the back of the neck of any Haligonian who knows about the unspoken elements of a good maritime party. With luck, they’ll be followed by “how I wish I was in Sherbrooke now,” and a casual cheer, enthusiastic foot stomping and the decision that another round of cheap Keith’s in those stackable plastic glasses is definitely worth it. If a roof has ever been raised all the way from the basement, it definitely happened at The Lower Deck. Likely on a Sunday. Fuelled by the likes of our friend Mr. Rogers (Stan not Fred) via Signal Hill or Shaydid.
