Honestly, I'm only writing this review because I just made a list titled "Places I Get Crizzunk" and Merc Bar absolutely has to be on it. Because, well, I do. I'm not sure what it is about the place... I think because they don't really serve food here so just by showing up you're basically letting everyone know that you're there to party. Or maybe because the music is a little too loud to have a conversation, but it's not really a dancing place either. Or because it's all inside so you can't smoke and drink. Whatever the reason, Merc nights usually result in an extremely bad hangover for me the next morning. But I never learn my lesson and tend to end up there at least once a month.
Last time, someone who was equally crizzunk started a Conga line when "Jump in The Line" came on...I jumped on (of course)...I mean, c'mon, who wouldn't want to do a Conga line to that song? But apparently the Merc crowd is too cool for school and weren't having it. I know it's supposed to be swanky and classy, but really it's just a close place to my house that I drink at. Sorry in advance if I ruin your ambiance, but I always have an extremely good time here.
