Turn bluebonnet circle into the new bar scene for undergrads/fans on gameday. Add more restaurants and bars and make it the go to area on Friday/saturdays in the fall

Stan: "Oh my God, they killed the Oui!"
Kyle: "Those [ "illegitimate Baylor boys" ]!"

Try not to think of it as killed as doubled Fred’s.

Ah, the Oui. Fort Worth's second darkest bar...

 

[ShadowFrog]

So much great about this music, especially the borrowed, "Caravan" riff, seems like I remember they played that when Hadji came up. Cobra Charmist, IMO.

I heard the JQ music once on a different file but without the machine guns, bazookas, lasers & pterodactyl shrieks it just wasn’t the same.

Wait.
You’ve actually been in the Fort Worth Club?!
I had heard stories, legends really, but never knew.

No, the Su-Su Lounge, which used to be out on Camp Bowie just past 30. "Fort Worth's darkest bar" was proclaimed on a sign inside, barely visible of course. Stumbling into furniture was common after walking in from bright sunlight...

It’s never so-so at the Su-Su!

And since we’re talking about bygone bars in the dark, I nominate the old Jack London’s on Oakland/Bridge St. Or as an ex-gf liked to call it, “The place where happiness goes to die.”

So...the ex-gf that was the starter?

As it happens, yes.

Cold comfort for ruining near-perfection. Once something like that is gone, it's long gone and nothing can fill the void, just like the Caravan.

Or J.J.'s Hideaway...

Or J.J.'s Hideaway...

I'd forgot about that. It's like the someone came in and basically nuked everything along 7th from the river over into Monticello. Amazing how many good spots disappeared in a relatively short time span once the big investors got interested in Fort Worth.
