[00:01.789]I'm Martin Tickman
[00:02.638]And what is your position here
[00:04.040]Front office manager
[00:05.041]The name of this stablishment is
[00:06.795]This is the Edgewater Inn
[00:08.399]In Seattle Washington
[00:09.098]Can you tell me
[00:11.012]Uh how some rock'n'roll groups have taken advantage of this unique situation
[00:15.413]They've taken advantage in different ways
[00:18.216]And we do encourage
[00:19.018]Uh and advertise that you can fish from your room and we are glad to have our guests fish from 'em
[00:25.827]Do you supply them with fishing equipment
[00:28.531]No but we have a shop in the hotel that does rent the equipment as well as bait
[00:32.639]What sort of bait do they usually use
[00:35.592]Uh it's a preserved minnow of some variety
[00:40.259]I don't know exactly what the fish is
[00:43.213]Well what do they do after they fish from the window
[00:45.366]Well rock'n'roll bands and other guests as well often catch shark and squid and octopus and usually we
[00:49.873]It lands up either in the bath tub or dribbled on the floor on the way to the bath tub
[00:55.870]Mm-mmh
[00:56.321]But it's not reserved to uh to any rock'n'roll bands I mean other guests do it too
[01:05.225]Mm-mmh but how frequently do you find squids and sharks and octopuses in the bath tubs of the rooms here at the hotel
[01:12.046]After almost any good weekend of pretty heavy occupancy
[01:14.049]Say like over half the house filled
[01:16.402]If you have over the
[01:18.355]Way way
[01:18.955]Over half house filled you'd find one say
[01:21.058]Yeah say one or something like that
[01:23.163]So how often would you say that is each week
[01:25.266]Twice a week you'd find a
[01:27.921]Well I would I don't know that I would say that it would average to anything like that
[01:33.779]You may find on four or five rooms with fish from various places
[01:36.834]Ou know around
[01:38.335]But there's not much you can do with the shark after you've caught him
[01:41.040]You know some of these things are pretty big
[01:43.037]What would you imagine is done with these
[01:44.590]Uh sharks after they've been caught before they are left
[01:48.161]Uh for you to be cleaned up
[01:49.604]Sometimes the guest calls the houseman or housekeeper to haul
[01:52.110]It away because there's nothing that they can do with it
[01:56.016]Yeah well
[01:57.779]Have you ever heard of any other things that were done with them before they were hauled away
[02:01.686]Yes a lot of
[02:03.989]Some people like to uh perform vivisection on 'em
[02:06.543]Or something like that
[02:07.444]Occasionally you find that little bit of mess
[02:09.247]FZ: Yeah
[02:09.848]I'll say that the the
[02:11.300]The"blood on the carpet" syndrome is rather eh
[02:14.554]Rather rare but it did occasionally happen
[02:17.059]Do you ever find fish blood on the sheets of your beds here
