Dive Bar Jukebox Etiquette

Question: Is it EVER okay for a bartender to NOT like a song and simply press “Skip” to go to the next song? Over the weekend, one of the good folks at Billy Froggs in the Old Market skipped over a song because “He didn’t want to hear two Mexican songs in a row.” YIKES!

Light House Bar & Grill Opening Second Omaha Location this Summer

One of the first dive bar reviews I ever wrote for the fledgling HitThatDive was about a place tucked away in West Omaha called the Light House Bar & Grill. Let’s be honest, I had no idea what I actually was doing my first time here, and for the record, I still don’t. So I’m

Geno’s Bar and Grill — Omaha Wing Challenge

3821 North 167th CircleOmaha, Nebraska 68116402-505-8085 We have both kinds. Bar, and grill. Back by popular demand (and certain out-dated extradition laws) it’s an honest-to-goodness HitThatDive wing review! Now, I had no intent of doing a wing review, but my friend (and fellow wing enthusiast) AC needed to escape from her kids…the day before Mother’s

Perry’s Place — Omaha Wing Review

9652 Mockingbird DriveOmaha NE 68124402 592 3230 Here goes nothing There’s pretty much not a day that goes by where I’m not asked if I’ve ever have tried the wings at (fill in the blank). Sometimes I have, and sometimes I add it to my “Places I’ll eventually get to when I’m not being a

Hello There…Again

Well, that was only five-ish months since my last HitThatDive post. It’s not that I got lazy (but I am), I just didn’t seem to have the same internal fire to yammer on as I did at one point. July 22nd was the six-year “anniversary” of HitThatDive, and reading back through some of the old

It’s Groundhog Day! Are The Bars Open?

Remember when you were a kid, you would sit by the radio on a snowy day praying that school was cancelled? Now that you’re an adult, you do just the opposite and pray that the BAR is OPEN! So with that in mind, I was able to compile a quick list of bars that will

The Bar is OPEN! — Christmas Day Edition

There’s nothing like spending the day with family from near and far watching a Christmas Story for the 11th time… and stuffing your face with home-cooked food. But let’s face it, by about 5ish (or so) all that togetherness can get a little…well…let’s just say you’re ready for a break from your grumpy old uncle.

25th Annual BlackOUT Friday — Thanksgiving Tradition

<!–[if !mso]>st1:*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } <![endif]–> Being completely allergic to stores, and the people in them, BlackOUT Friday started as a way to NOT go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving. This year I am proud to announce that the tradition of not shopping, and sitting in a (strip) mall bar instead, will continue at The Good

The Bar is OPEN — Thanksgiving 2015 Edition

There’s nothing like spending the day with family from near and far watching football and stuffing your face with home-cooked food.
