**UPDATED** VV do/don't pass on letters list

[LucasCruikshankLover]

Since the old post is dead, I decided to do the research and come up with a new via venue list considering most of the old list has gone through multiple name changes or permanent closures. As of right now, I only have venues in the United States but please feel free if you don't see a venue on here to post your experience and I'll add it to its respective list (including international venues). Keeping in mind, most of these venues have gone through multiple name changes so please make sure you have the most recent name change. There are a few venues on the original list that came up with confusing or indistinguishable results (those are marked with a question mark) so if anyone has information on those please let me know.

Happy collecting!
