Anyone notice that Mickey's Thirsty Eye was on the front page of the Statesman today? Seems they're going to court over the recent ban on smoking. According to Mickey Leathers, the bar's owner, "99.9 percent of the customers are smokers." And that's only because they count Troy and I, who stop there after our Walnut Creek rides for a few bottles of Miller High Life. Oh well, just another local, character rich pub that's gonna close it's doors. Pretty soon we're gonna be a town of Little Woodrows' and Fox and Hounds' and Hooters'. I'm gonna go throw up now.
Keep Austin Weird
such a damn shame....
ReplyDeleteMickey's can't close down...my hash name came from an On On On at that place!
ReplyDeleteTroy and I are there almost every Tuesday, we should have a happy hour there next week.
ReplyDeletehey there is always Grafitti's, smoking ban does not affect this place and it is around the corner from Gagger
ReplyDeleteWe need to pool our funds and open a hash bar.....
ReplyDeleteOk, HH at Mickey's next Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteYes, G's is 1 minute away from my place...and Deb rocks.
And from what I hear Joe is back
ReplyDeleteSounds good. Pre-HH night ride/run/walk at Walnut Creek too!

ReplyDeleteNext Tuesday? Is today next Tuesday?
ReplyDeleteNo, you idiot. Today is Tuesday. Next Tuesday is a week from now. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'll be at LJ's then!
ReplyDeletewhat kind of beer was LJ's giving out on Sun? It was certainly not my favorite...
ReplyDeleteSomething like Old Vixen?
ReplyDeleteThere's your problem, Old Vixen isn't beer.
ReplyDeleteBTW You could've chosen any other beer (within reason)
