I was going to dress up as him for halloween but do you know how hard it is to find a scythe in this town.

Heard it sucks. Also, lots of people butthurt about the dress code.

I hope you're billing the Aggie Biz Assoc. for consulting fees.

Was there for a bit last night. Did not suck. Many drinks were had. The front side will probably be pretty nice for watching sports.

sounds rough ridin' amazing

They hyped it up really well. Pretty nice, chill, etc. But like any bar, the atmosphere will be made by the type of crowd it draws, not the layout of the building.

I've only seen pictures, but it looks as if the eating/sitting down area is really nice buy then there's a huge rough ridin' empty space right by that. That would be like eating in an empty barn. But I'll reserve judgement till I actually go (this weekend?!?)

My lord, the JK's opening night facebook album looks like kunights.com

Was enormous. Just walked through to check it out. Front part is a normal-sized bar, probably the same size as the front part of Pat's or something. But then you go through a door to the back and it's just a mass of people dancing and it was super crowded and I felt like I had walked into an alternate universe. Probably will watch sports in the main room at some point.

I went there last night and had some fun. Heard that the costume contest got kind of weird.

I heard it was pretty frattastic!

It's got a huge empty dance floor. Seems like there's half a dozen of the exact same place in Aggieville now--trying to re-create Lucky's. Pats on Thursday was the one exception playing pretty decent music. I really like what they've done in there.

Pat's is just awful now. Music is insanely loud.

pats has always been awful minus the first couple weeks it opened. sorry 'seeds, truth hurts sometimes, especially when you don't realize it.

Very good spicy sausage + pulled pork sammies though.

Worked at Pats. Was under extremely shitty management until about a year ago when the Bobby T people bought it.

steve dave · « **Reply #19 on:** November 02, 2011, 05:32:10 PM »

townies, where is this place in aggieville?

SkinnyBenny · « **Reply #20 on:** November 02, 2011, 05:36:29 PM »

Very near if not right next to Ballard's, right?

Right.

What was there before? A deck (with $1 nat bottles) its required for any recreation of Lucky's

steve dave · « **Reply #23 on:** November 02, 2011, 07:11:18 PM »

listen you old balls, nobody is trying to recreate shitty luckys. JFC.

Dr Rick Daris · « **Reply #24 on:** November 02, 2011, 07:15:51 PM »

you know how ballards was kind of like two different buildings? one side with shoes and stuff and the other with the printing business and stuff? jkaws is where the shoe side used to be (i think). anyway they did a pretty good job and that backroom is huge. the fact that they don't currently have food and won't for at least another month combined with how big and open that back area is gives me some concern that it is trying to out tubby tubby's which is fine but i was hoping for a good version of kites and i don't think we're going to get it. oh well.
