The report said, “Abo’s Pizza may follow the example set by neighboring Thunderbird Burgers, whose owner won a lawsuit in January that allowed him to sell alcohol until 2 a.m. Abo’s has hired Richard Lopez, the lawyer who represented Thunderbird.”
The article said, “Boulder’s Planning Board agreed in 2004 to allow Thunderbird Burgers to stay open until 2 a.m. only if its owners agreed to stop selling alcohol by 11 p.m.”
