Does anyone have a pic or gif of that poster? I'm building a shed and wanted to frame that poster for the bathroom as kind of a joke for those that used to frequent WAS.I thought this was going to be about Brooke Burke.
Indeed he was/is.Thats a good friend.
I saw someone get pissed on while standing in line for beers at Lumpy's.Lumpy's was a truly unique bar experience. It was like someone set up a bar in Buffalo Bills basement from Silence of the Lambs.
I honestly don't remember if they had a $1 pitcher deal. I just know we went there because I had friends who liked mixed drinks and Lumpys was known for cheap and strong mixed drinks at the time. I always stuck to beer. I don't remember getting pitchers there, but that doesn't mean much. That's pretty far in the rearview mirror for me now. Lol!I saw someone get pissed on while standing in line for beers at Lumpy's.
Yes, the guy just let loose in line for the bar. I only got splashed a little; just shrugged it off 'cause after all, it was Lumpy's.
Didn't Lumpy's have $1 pitchers as a regular beer deal? I think they did.
That bathroom at Lumpy's was really tiny. Just one open toilet and a trough and sink/urinal IIRC.All of them, even Lumpys, if it was just to piss it was a wall in the corner
I thought someone stole that.Brooke Burke at Welch Ave Station is an Ames legend!
I always hear of these ridiculous deals from the good ol days of shith0le Welch bars. How in the world did these deals make any amount of business sense to the establishment? Were they banking on people coming back on other days when they weren't losing money hand over fist? It always fascinated me hearing legends of these deals.I honestly don't remember if they had a $1 pitcher deal.

The pitcher deal that sticks out to me was Mojazz had penny pitchers on Thursdays. I feel hungover just thinking about it.
I think a lot of bars like that made their money on the cover charge. Sips had quater draws and wells on Wednesday nights with a $5 cover. The liquor served in these drinks were bottom shelf like HawkeyeI always hear of these ridiculous deals from the good ol days of shith0le Welch bars.

Coleseum had any drink for a silver coin. Nickel got you a drink in the 90s. Generally ended around 8 and then they made their money. People generally are creatures of habit so they will stick to certain bars also.I always hear of these ridiculous deals from the good ol days of shith0le Welch bars.

Not just Welch but the Zone had penny pitchers with a few bucks to get it, The Fox on Thursdays was 3 pitchers for $6.I always hear of these ridiculous deals from the good ol days of shith0le Welch bars.
