I know that the Arch Rival Roller Girls league isn’t “south city” but I wanted to write about them for multiple reasons (and I have an “Outside the City” category for a reason, right?).
First, I’ve been a fan for a long time. I got into it back in 2006 when Continue Reading...
The highlight of my weekend was most definitely the People of Walmart party on Friday night at the Tin Can (Morgan Ford). The premise of the party was simple — pick a photo from peopleofwalmart.com and dress like that customer. They judged all the costumes at midnight and gave prizes to Continue Reading...
Last Saturday was the Poker Pub Crawl on the Morgan Ford strip. It was $10 to play, you got seven cards, and had to make the best (or worst) five card poker hand. The highest and lowest hand of the night received a percentage of the buy-in.
We arrived at Colorado Bob’s around 2pm and Continue Reading...
Zack and I were searching for someplace new for dinner last Thursday night and I remembered reading some pretty mixed reviews about Lafayette Fire Company No 1. I wanted to judge for myself, so we headed over there around 6pm.
The atmosphere was cute and somewhat cheesy, which I guess matches Continue Reading...
Hope you all had a great weekend! Zack and I went to Friendly’s and Nick’s Pub, mostly to play pool and that little bobble poker game in the picture.
I can’t believe we’re almost half way into January and it’s one month until Mardi Gras! I’m just counting the Continue Reading...
Have you seen this gnome? He’s hiding out somewhere in St. Louis and this picture is the only clue I have to his whereabouts. And no, it’s not a Travelocity ad campaign, it’s the Hannah Games Runaway Gnome! Every month they’ll be posting a new picture of the gnome, Continue Reading...
I hope you had a great holiday! I spent some time with my family in Atlanta (and went geocaching with my nephew, but that’s another blog post) and now I’m looking forward to New Year’s Eve and the start of 2010. Last year at this time, Zack had a mohawk, we were renting (in Continue Reading...
Last Saturday (12/19), Zack and I went to see El Monstero, a Pink Floyd cover band, at the Pageant. We had general admission tickets so we planned on being there around 5pm to get into Halo Bar. They let patrons of Halo Bar into the venue before the rest of the crowd, so it’s a good Continue Reading...
Tomorrow is my 29th birthday. The last year in my twenties. The only relief I get is the fact that my sister is 10 years older than me and almost 40. Ha! Here are some events that are happening tomorrow, December 16th.
Van Goghz is offering up a $6.99 steak special with the purchase of Continue Reading...
(NOTE: this post refers to the Morgan Ford location)
The reviews of Tin Can are always pretty varied. Some people absolutely love the place and others think it’s just a manufactured dive bar. It took a while for Zack and me to warm up to the place, but once we did, we were sold. Continue Reading...
