Free HBO/Free Cable... Seriously?

I was driving past a decent hotel the other day in Omaha and I noticed that on the sign out front. The lettering was faded so I'm guessing it's been up there a few years. Why do hotels/motels still advertise that on their signs? I mean I know I don't look for hotels that allow me to watch Game of Thrones when I'm traveling. I look for places that might offer free wifi, free breakfast, free drinks and such.
Seriously? Isn't HBO and cable pretty much a staple at all hotels anymore? Maybe advertise free porn or how about Netflix or Hulu? Actually, **** your TV. Where's the free dinner vouchers or something?
It's kind of stupid, IMO. This is just a bit obscure and outdated nowadays. I could understand it in the 1980's when HBO was a big ****ing deal. Now it pretty much comes with any cable/satellite plan.

I've seen other outdated "deals" like that as well.

The gas station that still offers free air, the buffet restaurant that let's kids under four eat free... Shit like that just doesn't make sense anymore to me. Maybe it's to bring in the older crowds?
**** it, I'm gonna go watch me some free HBO at the motel 6.

Ya. There's quite a few that offer free air around here but the kwik shop charges a ****ing buck for air and the shit only stays on for two mins.

What's the take like this year? We had record rainfall in the Sandhills. Farmers are jerking off all over their combines. They're growing 10 foot tall corn in the ****ing sand. It's awesome. Wildlife is flourishing this year too. Pheasant have had a comeback this spring.

Funny, I was just talking about this yesterday.

I remember when it was such a big deal for Hotels/Motels to have swimming pools as well.

Do they still advertise "Heated Pool".

Sore one of those air balls (nicknamed) that store compressed air. Fill it up, and toss it in your truck. My brother use to bring his to the drag strip to add air back to the tires after he had run them at lower psi during his passes. That thing works great.

It's above average, which is a lot better than the 10 bushel shit I've harvested the last couple. Some of the corn was pretty shitty because it couldn't hold on until the rains (finally) came. I still can't distance myself from the drought it seems.

Corn was all over the place, really bad to pretty good. The milo that I got planted on time was consistently solid. The milo that had to wait on the rain looks pretty decent, hopefully it's better than the early stuff, but there are couple fields that are definitely going to be worse from being out of rotation. I even have some double crop milo out. It's not going to be good, but FFS I have a double crop!

I certainly don't have the harvest coming that east of here does, but my god it feels good to cut something better than 10 bu/ac. Jesus that was terrible.

There are definitely more birds out here than there were the last couple, but it's going to take a good long time for the population to get back where it was. It doesn't help that there are foxes around now. I'd never seen them here, but there are 2 families within a mile of the shop. That's bad friggin news for the pheasants.

All of mine leak. I'd rather pay for a compressor than an airbubble that will probably leak in a week or two.

They should offer free wi-fi...that actually works. Then I'd be on the hook. I could not care less about cable or HBO in a hotel.
