Good feedback guys - thanks!
Actually, I was looking for the girl to chime in. Yeah, she told me I could leave my coat there, but after this exchange with the bartender I looked her in the eye for a second and kind of expected her to tell him it's OK. It was her, after all, who had the seat reserved (I think).
Since she didn't say anything, that served as a good gauge or her interest in me. Yeah, she might have been amused by watching two dogs amog'ing it out for her entertainment, but I wasn't going to give her that. Next!
