The rules of a Dive Bar

Most people do no appreciate how great a dive bar can be. I recently had a conversation with a new friend, who showed her appreciate for dive bars, but not quite knowing what the rules of a dive bar are. Allow me to educate you.

1. When you first walk in the regulars at the bar must turn and size you up.

2. There must be a jar of Pickled eggs on the bar. You don't have to eat them, they just must exist.

3. Beer is sever in a can.

4. Cocktails? Are you crazy they may have a bottle of whiskey (or moonshine if your real lucky).

5. Crazy old bartender, who demands their rules be followed is a must!

6. Pool table has stains on it from at least the last 20 years.

7. Cash only

8. Open by 11 a.m. (first customer in by 11:05)

9. The regulars have photo collage on the wall.

10. A scratchy old record player with real records is playing in the corner.

You should go ahead and head down to your local dive today!
