PITTSBURG, Kan. — In the past, bars and restaurants typically installed TVs to entertain guests, which give them an incentive to stay longer. But recently the trend for eateries is to encourage people to engage with each other rather than stare at another screen. In the Pittsburg area, several businesses are encouraging people to put down their phones, engage and try new activities.
