You can also get a bud light, or a Guinness, grey goose dirty martini, a bottle of wine, or a single malt on the rocks. How can they fit all that variety into one-room place that also holds karaoke contests some nights and genius trivia contests on other nights?\n\nThe first time I came here I was actually about 2 or 3 years old and it was the free peanuts that brought me in (and my parents). Now, they still have chex mix sometimes, but it's the $5 pitchers of Killians on Monday nights that does the trick. \n\nYou don't really need a calander to know what time of year it is when you're here, the place dresses itself up like its going to a cinco de mayo party or 4th of July cookout. The first time you come, you feel like you meet everyone that works here. The next time you come, you get a lot of handshakes, hugs, and 'welcome-backs.' It just feels like that kinda of place. \n\nWelp, my crab legs are here, so you're going to have to imagine how good they smell and be jealous. Signing off."^^ . "3"^^ . "2013-05-05T00:00:00"^^ .
