Do they have anything against hanging out in the area with pool table and tv? I.e. I'm a OTR trucker and like to get out of the truck for a while, could I go and just sit and watch tv or bring a laptop in and watch/work for an hour or two?

Because there's a pool table and a television, to me, sounds like they don't mind you stay a while.

Hmm this truckstop is very busy & I haven't stayed @ their area for a while only to buy food, seat/eat & go back to my truck; I suppose if for a couple of hrs wouldn't B a problem unless you want to make the area your own living room and display bad behavior in public.

I am not a trucker and they let me sit there for over 4 hours... Didn't even expect me to buy stuff. Had motorcycle problems and was waiting for my son to come.
