[edit] "Cheapshot's" The Bar
On February, 2007, Cheapshot, along with his brother Jordan Fisher, opened a bar, called Cheapshot's. It was a life-long dream of the both of them to open a bar, and after several years of successful investment by Jordan, they both purchased a 2200 square-foot building. After renovating it, they opened it for a test-run in May of 2007. It was a success, and is now officially open. The bar has an exclusive collection of signature drinks, including the Ryu Shot, which is a reference to Cheapshot's fellow band-mate, Ryu Maginn, and a Cheapshot Mojito, named after Cheapshot himself.
