An airport bar has added a little curtain for men crying into $19 beers, offering travelers a modest privacy upgrade between gate changes and whatever their phone just showed them.

The curtain can be drawn around one stool and includes a hook for a laptop bag, a laminated tissue packet, and enough space for a man to say “I am fine” into foam while looking at a delayed boarding screen.

“Airports bring up a lot,” said bar manager Krista Lenz. “Divorce. Layovers. Fathers. The fact that a domestic pilsner now costs the same as a childhood bike.”

Customers can reserve the curtain for 15-minute intervals, though staff may extend the time if the man is wearing a blazer with sneakers or has opened a note app titled Things I Never Said.

The bar said the curtain has been popular, especially among passengers who thought they could make it to Denver without learning what their marriage was.
