[QUOTE="Boonescabanaboy, post: 2451945, member: 72918"] One Okie here to comment on Joe’s. At one time it was the coolest place there was. A true college town bar with no dance floor or wasted space, just drunk college kids wall to wall. When I was in school, there was a bar just up the road where you went to see and be seen, Joe’s was where the trouble makers went. I was in a fraternity, and not exactly antiestablishment, but I knew immediately I was at home when I went to Joe’s. Other bars were playing the same tired, top 40 music and Joe’s was playing Muddy Waters, Grateful Dead, Beatles… just different stuff to a sheltered kid who didn’t yet know good music. By the end of the night the tables and chairs were the dance floor, led by the owner who never met a stranger. Now it’s little kids with balloons and chocolate malts, especially on game day. Stan cashed in / sold out, I applaud him for doing so and I’m glad he’s doing so well. It’s still got a little of the old Joe’s in it at times, but it was something fleeting that really was worthy of the attention it now gets. And yes the peppered bacon cheese fries are great. [/QUOTE]
