greatest bar of all time

SoBo's on Broadway and Bayaud! On saturday nights you don't even have to be 21 to get in to party. I witnessed this phenomenon personally this weekend with the Hynes family. There were somewhere between 15-20 dudes with at least two indicators that they were born after 1985: the joe shoffner chin hair, the mustache/chin hair combo, the alden woodrow patchy beard, the leather coat that is too cool to take off even tho it is 85 degrees inside, the pink polo shirt with upturned collar, the backwards baseball cap, and a steady diet of Beastie Boys covers on the kareoke machine. It was a great look into the world of the post-high school years: the style, the attitude, the chin hair. It really never gets any more comical than that. And SoBo's is bold enough to embrace these embattled kids. So I say cheers to SoBo's. And may I never cross the threshold into that establishment ever again.

Side note: The coup de gras of the night was when I got my tab and signed my receipt and a 50-year-old russian lady sitting next to me had an orgasm when she saw me sign with my left hand. She grabbed my neck and said, "Joo left-haanded. Joo vely spejial. Vhat is jour alt?"
