Aces & Eights Saloon: You won’t hear no banjos or slide guitars at Aces and Eights Saloon, boy; according to its owners, this bar’s inspiration—gunslinger and pro gambler Wild Bill Hickok, who was holding pairs of aces and eights when he was murdered—would’ve been more of a headbanger than a line dancer. With $1 Buds and Bud Lights from 10pm ’til midnight and a 2-for-1 happy hour daily, things can get crazy right quick in these parts. Between the upstairs bar and the downstairs lounge area, the crowd varies—think fresh-from-college youngins playing drinking games in the back and geezers (meaning those in their late 20s) grazing on wings in the front. Sit on one of the genuine saddle seats at the bar to get the full themed experience. |
