![]() ![]() That first bar was a pit…it was dank, dark, smelly, humid, ugly, dangerous and fantastic. One drank longneck Budweisers, the shots were sickeningly sweet, women were a thousand times more beautiful than they were outside and violence was always an option. ![]() Think back throughout all of your life to the bartenders that you’ve known… Hell, do you remember the first bartender that served you? I do – I remember when I was…17 maybe? Back then in those days of TVs with knobs that went from 1 – 12, front doors that never locked and a minimum age of 19, everyone knew the bars in their cities that served us young’ns. I used my cousin’s ID and pretended that the doorguy and myself were not in this dance together.  He’d look at the ID and then at me (I must have looked 14), and I said to myself, ‘I sure hope that he believes the ID’…Īfter the first time in that bar, the world was a whole new place – never the same again. Think about it – bars were always the places where we saw on TV where SHIT WENT DOWN!!! I mean, in ’87, a few of the top movies were Fatal Attraction, The Untouchables and Dirty Dancing… Goddam! I wanna get some of that! I may meet a chick in a bar if those movies were any hint of my future since I sure as hell was not meeting any at my high school…
