you can either pay a boat load to go to the observation deck, and be given nothing tasty to drink... or you can bite the bullet, pay the 20$ a drink and enjoy it on one floor below the expensive observation deck. be careful with your chairs.... The last time I was there, I saw no less than three men break the legs right off their chairs when they were trying to lean back or push back their chairs to get up. The first time I thought the waiter was just being polite when he said "it happens all the time," but... then it happened twice more in the next hour. so I guess it really DOES happen all the time.
