I just read where Pink's ex husband has a bar in Vegas called Wasted Space...wish I'd thought of that, it's too good. I don't suppose anyone here ever went to the Shanghai in Auburn? Truly a loss when it shut down. They cleaned it up and shot that John Travolta movie Phenomenon there. I miss the Shang. It's motto: Liquor in the front, Poker in the rear, Good eatin' on the side.

I spent a lot of time there, probably way too much, but they had about 30 pinball machines (remember those?) and on Monday nights 12oz beer refills were 30 cents. Real hole in the wall, sorta dark, never too clean, but a great place to blow an evening, and for under $10 on a Monday I could drink too much and play pinball all night. Also, as a bonus, you never had to deal with all the frat puppies because they wouldn't be caught dead there.

It is one of my favorite bar names, too. Every time I see it, it cracks me up." There was one called the "Come Back Inn" in the suburbs of Chicago. Great burgers and a huge fireplace.

I wish I could remember where I was when I saw it. I think it was somewhere on the East Coast. But I think there are many bars named that all over the country.

I always imagine that someday I'll finally hit rock bottom, and, when that day comes, I will have to start drinking there. As of yet, I've never been inside, but my friend Luke who was then a paramedic told me went there once on a call. There was this old lady inside who looked like she was 100 sitting alone at a table, smoking, with a huge ashtray in front of her filled with a pile of over 80 extinguished butts. It looked like she had been sitting there forever. When Luke asked her what was wrong, she complained that she was having chest pains. He was like "uh... then maybe you shouldn't smoke so much." She answered "really? you think that could be what's giving me chest pains?" This fits in perfectly with the idea of the place I had formed in my mind.

And in the same area there is a bar called "Dead Horse Tavern" that is in the town called Dead Horse Holler. and yes I know that this will only perpetuate Kentucky stereotypes, but hell y'all know better. ;) Mon, 15 Dec 2003 21:39:10 GMT http://DiveBarConnoisseurs.tribe.net/thread/bf8bf13c-3014-4ebf-bf12-d0969a4a534d#dd8910e6-a1f3-42fe-9ade-b771a8a024dc Rachel 2003-12-15T21:39:10Z http://DiveBarConnoisseurs.tribe.net/thread/bf8bf13c-3014-4ebf-bf12-d0969a4a534d#b3d27f34-085e-4c31-bef1-46fb1201b0d0 That's just because of the cute bartender...

They had a great happy hour, i think it was two for one shots or something. THat was back in '94/'95, don't know when they closed.

I don't remember when they closed either - next thing you know, they were gone. There's a place that isn't too much of a dive but since it's in my hood in SF (and it's been there since I was a kid) - "Would You Believe Cocktails." They've change owners a few times and always kept the name.
