Why Thursday happy hour fills up fast

Thursday is the last weekday most people can stay out without paying for it on a weekend morning, so the after-work drink turns into the evening. Bars know it, and a busy Thursday is less about the discount than about getting people in the door early. Expect the popular rooms to be full by the middle of the window, and plan to arrive at the start.
