The bartender was chatting with a patron who was vaping at the bar. It came straight into my face. Seriously! Take this crap outside! Is vaping indoors even legal here? Needless to say I will never come back. Unless you're looking for a crappy experience, go somewhere else. Very disappointing!

Half Price Happy Hour 7 days a week 7pm to 9pm. Everything is half off.

This place encompasses every "hillbilly/country folk" stereotype imaginable - which for me, makes…read moreit all the more loveable. For a visual - think: goddy belt buckles, cowboy boots, ball-bulging Wranglers (make sure you get a visual for that one), undersized shorts for the ladies and skoal rings. My hometown friends and I have been frequenting this place since we were 16 years old (yes, in Ohio you can legally get into a bar when you're 16). We go for the line dancing and love that the song order is still predictable after 7 years. Word of the wise on the dance floor - stay the hell back from the girls with hankerchiefs in their back pockets - they mean business and really like their dancing space. Admission is only $3 for those over 21. Drinks are cheap - especially compared to Indy. You could easily get sloshed for 20 bucks. Large long island iced tea complete in festive styrofoam cup for only $4.50. Most music is country but around 11:30 they start throwing in some fun off the wall songs like "Stroke It" and "Pussy Control". Go with an open mind and heart for Garth Brooks.

You are sure to see jacked up pick up trucks and boys (maybe even some girls) with skoal rings. Once inside you are greeted with county music and cowboy boots stomping out the beat. Have no fear if you don't know how to line dance, just jump on the dance floor and look around and someone is sure to show you a step or two. If you are so inclined stop by the bar and grab a beer or a mixed drink for $1.50. This place is sure to surprise you but sure to be a good time!

Considering a drink costs $20 - I wont be going again. One of the waitresses was quite rude. There was a table open and the entire club was empty (the bartender told me immigration raids had all the customers scared?) But at any rate, I sat down at one of the only tables not marked reserved, and she promptly approached me and yelled at me for sitting there. Didnt ask me to move, vacate, or calmly explain that they ran out of handwritten "Reserved" notes - she just shrieked. So in summation: watered down, expensive drinks. I also accidentally walked in with a knife on my belt the first time too, walked right through the metal detector. After seeing some of the clientele, I'm glad I had the knife though. Lol. Saw some people with latin gang tatoos - this a club to avoid.
