That’s usually what happens! We go in, say hi, and then find a table or find another bar if we don’t like the scene.

So I can tell this story now because I don't go there any longer but my son's therapy was in that parking lot next door.

So I would sit there for an hour or so twice a week in that parking lot and that bar did not entice me and I have a long history of bars enticing me.

I always wanted to grab some Chuck's but I never once set foot in Q Bar. I couldn't really figure out what it was...billiards...slots....a crazy parking lot patio? It confounded me.

Not for any particular reason but it was usually about 5pm on a weekday and nobody was in the place which made it seem sketchy. The bakery next door isn't bad.

I lived about three miles away for over 15 years, never once stepped into the place.

B&B did a remote once from Home Run Pizza on 75th. I had to stop in because I could have walked there. It was so pathetic. Including the pizza. After that I only went to Buffone & OB post game remotes about once a year.

That's a bad day for me. Not the best location for me but if I didn't have shit going on, I'd make the drive.

My band played at Q Bar in Glendale Heights a few year ago. Big place and a wide spectrum, but I think the Pool tables were a big part of it. I would imagine it's the same deal as Darien.

I don't see darts at bars anymore. That was a big thing in my 20s Slot machines have taken that space at bars it seems.

Probably. Too much space and all those crappy plastic darts they had to use.

The bar makes $2 on a 15 minute dart game.

It's not about the money on the game; it's about the money spent on alcohol by uber competitive drunk people.

The bar I go to started hosting a dart league. Serious dart players are an interesting bunch. I could never play in one of those leagues because apparently you have to fist bump everyone after every time you throw.

Probably not a good idea to piss off a guy who spent 15 years boxing. That's just my opinion, though.

I meant to include the world "watching" before "boxing."

I don’t like that it’s snowing but it’s supposed to stop.

But I ain’t driving out there if no one’s going. It’s just far enough to be too far if no one shows.

Sounds like a place I spent a lot of time at near Grayslake called Cue N You Billiards. They didn't card hard and I looked significantly older than 19 or 20 at the time. A lot of pool tables and some snooker tables. Back then you could smoke cigarettes inside. When I went away to school in Memphis I kept up the billiards playing but added gambling to it. At 20 I was stupid and cocky when drunk and pretty good at shooting pool. I'd be sinking 8 ball shots with my eye balls closed or staring down my opponent while striking the cue ball. Really dumb.

In my 20s, I was getting pretty good at bar pool.

I was playing one night against some guys for $20 a game or so. I'd been working on my shot where I could curve the ball around and they thought they had buried me in the corner with the 8 on the far side.

With a full table run, you could really curve it so I did curve it around 3 balls and knocked the 8 in the opposite corner. I could probably hit that shot 2 out of 10 times at best.

I really thought those guys were going to kick my ass right there on the spot.
