never really got what made one bar popular in college and another not.

they all had drink specials, they all played the same music, all dirty crap holes.

what draws/drew you to one over another?

Saw that "Bogies" is 20 years old......that place was like 10 different places that all went out of business....what made the bogie's concept that much more appealing over "someplace else" (I think the first incarnation in that establishment)?

You have to know your market also. A bunch of young professionals don't want to go to a techno bar just like young kids don't want to go to a wine/scotch/cigar bar.

For seven Saturdays in the fall you pack that bitch with as many people as possible and make as much money as possible. For the rest of the year you try not to blow all the money you made just to stay afloat until next football season. That's how you have a successful bar in a college town

Citing your example of Bogies: it was opened by a guy who was SAE (when they were cool). He hired people who were in the decent fraternities to work there, so it became a greek hangout. Also: that patio is awesome.

The people make the bar. Not just girls. If it was just girls every dude in BR would be in bogies, then the douches would chase the girls away. It tends to be easier for greeks to take over a bar and make it popular for their crowd
