| - Perhaps it really is all about a name. When Maloney's changed to Mulligan's a bit ago, something happened over there on Stetson that simply cannot be explained. Its the same damn bar, the same layout, the same movie clips, the same horribly small bathrooms. And how, HOW is there an effing BATHROOM attendant in the men's bathroom?? The room is about the size of a closet for starters, and there isnt one in the ladies room. Oh wait, maybe there is... Regardless, the bathroom situation is miserable, which yes, has always been the case but there are a few changes that came with the name change of the bar.
I really liked Maloney's. It was a total frat-house bar, with a 3-1 guy girl ratio (just the way I like it) with a serious amount of beer spilling and car bomb shooting. If you were friends with a bartender (or just happened to recognize her from last night at Kona) you could get $100 worth of drink for $7. That kind of deal makes anyone look past the ugly guy grinding on your leg over by the dance floor. Music was always good, old school hip hop and popular more recent stuff. Maloney's may have been packed but the crowd was generally good looking, recent college grads, doing what they do best. Get really really hammered.
However I was there last weekend and something was seriously wrong. The bar didnt get even remotely busy until later, which would have been fine but the talent there left something to be desired. The bathroom still sucks and the music isnt as good. I've heard their happy hour is two-for-one so whenever that is might be a better time to go than after 11pm. I doubt I'll find myself there again at any hour. Bummer...
