One selling cowboy hats, another selling boots, a barber shop for men, beauty salon for the ladies. We proceeded through the front doors and I was amazed. It was a mall at one time converted into a bar.
Remind you that this bar was the second largest bar at the time in the States, second to Micky Gilly’s bar in Texas I believe. I will give you my vision the first night I went to this bar. My brother and I decided that enormous would enhance our choices of maybe finding a girl for the night, maybe two if we were lucky. If your gay then go down 7th Ave, if not, there is a bar called Grand Central Station that is enormous.
