Sent you a PM.

Goose:

Thanks for the very kind PM. It looks like we travel some of the same paths.

Ring out Ahoya.

The last time I was at Club Tap we ordered some Lalli's pizza (one of my favorites in the Milwaukee area), and the guy who took our order was someone I had played some basketball with.  I didn't know him well but we always called him Lalli, so he must've either been the son of the owner or the owner himself, but handed down to him (because he wasn't a ton older than me, and we had been getting Lalli's since I was a child).  He handed us some "Free drink" tokens for Club Tap, and when we went to use them the bartender was like, "Yeah, we haven't honored these for years."

Not sure if he was messing with us or just didn't know that.

Man, Wade, Club Tap and Lalli's pizza. That is a combination that's hard to beat. Good call.

And as an aside, I was driving by the Club Tap last week and I noticed (as I always notice) that the same neon Schlitz sign hangs above the front door as has been there as far back as I can remember. I would bet it has been up since the 1940s but for sure the 1950s. I always thought about going in and making them an offer right on the spot (for the sign).

That is a beautiful sign.  I bet they get offers on that all the time.

The Club Tap is pretty much right in between my brother's house and mine which makes it a perfect meeting place.  My son is also dating a girl who grew up around the corner from Club Tap/Lallis's (we had pizza from there last night) so it's a great place to get together with them and her parents.  Ray's Growler on the second floor of the liquor store is also a nice spot for a craft beer.

My only problem with Leffs is it's named after one of Springsteen's worse albums and has way too many Badger fans.

Leffs always puts together a solid group for Marquette games. It’s my go to when goolsbys isn’t on the table.

Probably the old Angelo's Pizza at Marquette. Maybe the Gym or Heggarty's second.

Since then, either Morgan's Bar and Grill in Libertyville, IL or Mickey Finn's in Libertyville, IL.

Or, maybe the United Club at Terminal C, Chicago O'Hare.

Thankfully there are several sky clubs in Atlanta. If you combine all of them, that might be the leader in the clubhouse now. But since I split time over the years between terminal T, A center point, A17, old B, new B, C, the two Ds, E, and now F. Otherwise…..

Not Greenfield, but not far away in Greendale....Ray & Dot's is about as good as a neighbothood bar gets.

Hmmm, I've seen softball teams with this sponsor, never quite sure where it was. It's only 4 minutes from my house. So I'll have to check it out.

Definitely THE GYM followed by FV Grunts

There was a house off campus that topped both of those though.

Spent a lot of time at Ray & Dots back in the day. Probably haven’t been there in more than 20 years
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

From the pictures, that is probably when they did the last remodel.

I grew up in Greendale so spent many nights (and days) at Ray & Dots.  When I turned 18 in 1974 a 14oz Pabst was 20 cents and if they ran out of glasses you had to pay more for a 12oz Andecker.  Sometime during my college years they raised the price to 25 cents so instead of 10 beers for $2 you only got 8!
