Bar Review #1
Take Scruff’s, add a couple video games, put mesh wire over the urinals, trade college students for bikers, and you have Fred & Wally’s.
A fine smoke filled establishment just a stones throw from the court house, Fred & Wally’s finds itself in a class all its own. It’s a class that places a premium on political incorrectness, body hair, and cigarettes.
The $2 beers are served cold by a trio of gamine who go by the name of “The Dick Me Chicks,” and strangely, if you want high end liquor they can probably serve you that too. Behind the bar, two 1980’s refrigerators come stocked with everything from Grey Goose to Hypno.
For my musically inclined readers, Scruff’s wasn’t the only place with karaoke last night. Sure those high brow folks may now have a three-color projector and a bed sheet but Fred & Wally’s has far more songs, sung by far more interesting people.
And to answer someone’s question, Fred and Wally are not Federal Court Judges. Fred is the co-owner and full time manager while Wally runs the “Icehouse” which he proudly owns by himself.
Summary:
Unless you’re looking for a classy girl or guy to bring home to mom, I highly recommend Fred & Wally’s.

I encourage everyone that was there last night to leave their own thoughts. If Carver ever recovers, there may be some pictures.

Congratulations, Swanburg. You have my seal of approval, which probably means nothing to you, but as I said in an email to my folks, you are the heir apparent to SoTheBearSays. Like him, I also initially thought you were a shit, but also like him, I find your blog strangely compelling. This bar review did it for me.
I do not know how someone can say this guy is the heir apparent. SoTheBearSays was the one and only and a huge hit. This blog is good but is one among many many pretty good blogs. I say good work but you can only have one trailblazer.
Although i tend to agree with the 7:18, I truly appreciate the compliment.
