I’m assuming that it’s no longer around.
Was it as fantastic as portrayed?

Went to the one in Vegas several times in the early 2000s. Had some good times there.

I went in the very early 80s, more like just drove by actually since i was a little kid and couldn’t get in.. went there while visiting family who lived in Pasadena/Deer Park.. would go all the way from NOLA just for Astroworld and the Galleria! Also i’ve probably seen UC start to finish in the neighborhood of 150 times.

It burned down years ago..... but a great honky tonk bar.

I went to the original in Pasadena in '82.
The thing I remember most was I had to take a dump and the bathroom there had toilets with no stalls. So if the room a dump you were doing it in front of a bunch of cowboy wannabe baws. So I left and went down the road to a restaurant to take a dump and then went back to Gilleys.

It is gone, Mickey tried to reopen a new one a few years ago and for some reason it never happened.
Honky tonks are the greatest of Americana.

Went on vacation with a friend and her family when I was about 7 (around 1980ish). We went to Gilley’s. Got a t-shirt and even got to ride the mechanical bull on a very slow setting. It was during daytime hours so they let us in. When I got home and my mom asked me about the trip, I told her we went to a bar. We had gone to Astroworld as well but I was more excited about going to a bar

No. But I spent plenty of time at Mudbugs in the 1990's.

Mickey Gilley and Johnny Lee are having an Urban Cowboy reunion concert at the IP Casino in Biloxi in a couple weeks.

The movie made it into a better place than what it really was in real life.

I was too busy partying at the Rainbow Inn in Pierre Part.

Yes, it was ok

I heard that it was so crowded that you couldn't even move. The air was broken and the beer was warm.

I went there with my fraternity brothers on the way to the LSU Aggie game. It was an ironic spirit sort of visit. I used to say I was the first person ever to ride that bull in plaid . Because I was frattin super hard, see.
