I had a wonderful experience during my brief stay in Boston. I wandered out of the hotel to find a gentleman in what could only be described as Reinfair garb, asked him where I could find a good bar. "You wanna go tah a fhuckin' bhar? C'mon, get in my car - I'll take you to a fhuckin' bhar."
I proceeded to get into a car with a complete stranger, went to a hole in the wall pub and chatted for a bit while some terrible live music played. Everybody was really friendly and I have nothing but positive things to say about the place.
I cannot imagine the confidence or, alternatively, the self-destruction necessary to get into the car of a random stranger. I am in awe.
It was probably a coin flip either you end up with a story for the kids about a unique local weirdo OR the cops find you in an abandoned apartment decapitated with a broadsword
Literally no downside.
id be perfectly fine with being murdered only if its decapitation with a cool fucking sword
I hope you enjoyed the Tam
Is that the only place to drink in that city? I went a few years ago and that's exactly where my friend took me. I enjoyed getting drunk there. I think we had bad pizza down the street after but it's all kind of blurry.
It's not, but it's the iconic hole in the wall dive.
I lived in Boston and some of its suburbs for 14 years during and after college. I think Boston has the best townie bars in the country. Some of my best bar memories are hanging out with friends who'd lived in the area their whole lives.
