85% Rule

Applies to sports bars that are always right near capacity, but you could always find a seat.

These unicorn bars are the best of both worlds for fans: A great atmosphere AND people know they could still get in without reservations.

Melissa: Where we watching the game tonight, Fam?

Jeff: Ugh, I totally forgot to make a reso, I have been busy all week.

Melissa: Ok, tip-off is in one hour, let's go to 99 Wings, they are an 85% Rule place.

Jeff: So good, and they have the best cajun rub wings.

Rule of Roelofs

When an action does not take effect during a potential period of time, it is rolled off to the next more optimal window of opportunity. This is not a function of statistical probability, it is simply the way things are and cannot be explained by logic or mathematical analysis; it just happens that way.

That smarty pants tried to explain with a rationale of probability that day shift didn’t receive a call, and that this had zero impact on night shift getting call. You would think he had heard of the Rule of Roelofs. Apparently not.
