That would be Leslie, not Liz. Liz is a little older, but still hot. Leslie went to Riverdale. I lived in there. If you were a bartender there, you know me.

Was with him that night. Talked to him Saturday afternoon. He moved to Natchez about 6 months ago. Going up to see him over President's day weekend. Has not changed a bit. Was not a Beggar, but knew most of those guys..The Z brothers, Dan O. Again, those were great times.

Loved old Bruno's catty-corner to current location. There was a smokeshow blonde bartender who went to Riverdale who worked there back in the day.

I have been going to Bruno’s since 1975 and still go there from time to time. I used to like the old place better. The atmosphere went downhill when they moved to the place across the street.

We called it Brunanigan's once they moved...

The old joint had so much character. Spent many a Sunday closing it out and then heading to Snake's or the Basin in Lakeview pre-Katrina.

I used to close down the old place too pre Katrina, but 25 or 30 years pre Katrina.

Back in the mid to late '70s used to go every Thursday night to Bruno's and to Buffalo's, next door to Bruno's. It was like a street party every Thursday night.
