50th Blog Post and a Contest
Well...I never thought I would get here. I figured I would get bored with blogging (you should see my work blog) and give it up.
Instead, I have had fun with writing about something I enjoy.
In chatting with Randy today, he gave me an idea.
To commemorate the occasion of the 50th Post, we will have a contest. Just go into the comments section and post the oddest name of a pub you have been to. Links are appreciated.
The prize is currently secret, but pretty cool.
Post away, and thanks for reading.

"Big Dick's Halfway Inn". I stopped there a couple of times when I was delivering medical supplies. Decent burgers, though I never tried their famous "minnow shot" because I was both working and driving.
ReplyDeleteI forget the name of the bar, but here is a link to the dustiest bar I have ever been to.

I think it was staffed by Canadians.
Been to Big Dicks! (Home of the original minnow shot at the lake)
ReplyDeleteRichar Noggins - Closed now, but a real dive bar at the lake. It was a great play on words!
