re: If only I owned a dive bar...

Then I'll build it just like the grande isle bars you like so much. Some old 2 X 4's, some beach bugs, horrible moth ball smell from the bathrooms... what else I'm missing?

Foam machine.
Eh, they are ok. There are really no other options when I'm out there.

Well, my feelings are so hurt that I wasn't included in the free drink offerings.
I was going to offer to cook for the grand opening.

Would you cook Glass's grandmas concoction? You got a place to stay in Grande Isle?

Sure. I'll make the chicken dish. I don't know about staying in GI. My last experience there with the island women was not so good. I don't think they like other women on their turf. Can you move the bar to another location? I don't want to have to bring my entire security staff. That gets very expensive.

I don't think that would have helped. The islander females did not like the islander males asking us to dance. It was a very bad and scary scene. The girls, if you can call them that, started throwing drinks on us and one of them up and belted a friend of mine. We made a quick exit and the cops had to call them off and then drive us to the camp where we were staying. The cop driving even took a different route since we were in walking distance. He told us if those girls figured out where we were staying, we might find the camp on fire in the middle of the night. These were he-women who probably all had a criminal record.

Glad you came out of it alive, OG. You have to very careful entering dives and neighborhood bars in small towns and on islands.
All we did was sit at a table and order drinks. The island men started swarming, immediately. The island women put up their dukes.

All because y'all were sitting there minding your own business and had a few guys ask you to dance?
Posted on 3/23/11 at 1:06 pm to Seashell Things
Yep.

Nope. Which is why I didn't deny that it happened.
I just said it was doubtful that a group of individuals would come up to your group and punch your friend unprovoked, all because some guys were talking to you.

Well, it surprised the heck out of us, also. We weren't there long enough to finish a drink.
In fact, the friend of ours whose family owned the camp warned us against going, but we couldn't imagine that we'd have any problems. We went in, got drinks, sat down and chatted amongst ourselves. We were having somewhat of a reunion. Guys came up to ask us to dance and the next thing we knew these girls were tossing drinks. We ran out of there like we were on fire and flagged down a police car going by. Several island women followed us out and one of them knocked one of my friends to the ground. They were yelling at us to leave "our" boy and leave "our" guys alone. Happened fast. These were not attractive guys, either.
These were not "normal" people. My friend gave us the big "I told ya so" lecture when the police took us home.

Ha Ha... Funny story, but if you ever came to GI with my group, that wouldnt happen. We know all the islanders. We even keep some pairs of white shrimp boots to blend in with the natives. I will say that having all our teeth was an oddity for them at first.
And Gris, if i ever owned a bar, it would either be in Henry on the beautiful Boston Bayou or in GI. If you come and cook for the grand opening you will be fine...

CC, I think the teeth, makeup and clean long fingernails were all a shocker. This was one scared chick, that night. I can tell you that! I didn't have my security staff at the time. What a mistake!
It was truly bizarre. We were terribly naive.

These are big old strappin' men. To see them is to fear them.

Fixed that.
By the way, I certainly hope you are protecting your wife when you take her to GI. I've never gone back.
