Not sure what it is now but Mr B's used to be popular back in 80's, early 90's. We also used to play bingo out in Elm Mott just to drink cheap beer, but the locals hated us for ruining their games because we were there just to get drunk.

Across street from Genco CU

That was a club in the late 70's (????) that became the Peach Tree Place and then another club before
GENCO snapped it up.

Walker's Auditorium on Clifton. Drink cold Pearl Beer and listen to Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Otis Redding, Joe Tex, et al. Too bad it's gone.

At one point it was Pj"s. It opened as the Outpost, we'd play racquetball at Spenco and then go across the street and drink the rest of the night away.

That is what I thought.

What did Dodge City Saloon used to be? Wasn't it like shooters or something?

Before the Dogde City Saloon opened on the Burger King end: the ENTIRE building was Okey Dokey's ... and before that it was Rocky Raccoon's ... OD's was THE place for dancing, drinking, and playing pool back in the mid-80's ... maybe Clifford Bell was running it back then... and Abracadabra's (formerly Kelly's) was where Uncle Dan's BBQ is at now... nuts that no one has mentioned Charlie's Corner... or Jerri's Lounge... or the Oyster Bar... tons of other bars and clubs where the "roving bar league" hosted singles and doubles pool tournaments every week (in 1984-1988 when we played) plus at all the dives on the Old Dallas Highway...good times... #OkeyDokeys
