lummy 4 #2 May 15, 2002 I can tell ya where pretty much the only bar(Ooops, excuse me... clearing throat.... Private Club) outside of downtown is if you don't mind hanging out with the Biker crowd. Seriously, I was only there for 4 days for the Olympics and didn't do or see much that wasn't Olympics related. Beautiful city.... One shot... HEY!!! Mas Tequila!!!!Two Shots HEY HEY!!!!Three Shots....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyhi 24 #5 May 15, 2002 Actually, two brew pubs use to be open up downtown within walking, and eventually crawling, distance of each other. One was about two blocks (east, I think) from the Delta Center (possible name is something like Red Sand Brew Pub, or maybe not) and the other is a block away. The second one, had live music and pretty good food. The first, I thought, had better beer. That whole area had clubs with music or musicians in the general area. All things considered, not too bad. flyhi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonno5 0 #7 May 15, 2002 Skydive utah is just to the south,it had a really fun ,nice crowd, when we went the about 2 years ago.They had a Beech-18 back then,though there was a scuzzy french guy who felt up the wife while taking her on a tandem.Dosnt matter that he was french, but he was.It was actually quite funny as she spun arround and told him to keep his fucking hands to himself(well i thaught it was anyway),he went quite red.Otherwize we dont go over that way much,there is a great cave just to the east, begins with a T but i forget the name.And if you have time, Moab to the south east is a drive but is fantastic,we go there all the time.

lummy 4 #12 May 15, 2002 Seriously, It is a beautiful city. I did have a hard time finding a Private club outside of downtown but driving up and down the main streets at 11pm isn't necssarily the best way to find one either.One shot... HEY!!! Mas Tequila!!!! Two Shots HEY HEY!!!! Three Shots....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pdj6p 0 #13 May 15, 2002 chrome boy I'm mormon and live in salt lake and I don't hate you.

steve1 5 #14 May 16, 2002 ChromeBoy,My wife and kids are Mormons and I still like you. Maybe that's because I'm mostly a Heathen myself. Seriously though there is a lot of nice people down there. I remember some really wild bars down town that we used to visit when training at a National Guard Camp south of there. I almost died there once. (Here I go telling stories again)....We were driving to a D.Z. to pick up some army jumpers. I was riding in the back of a deuce and a half. We were making a left turn off the highway when we noticed this pickup-camper approaching at a high rate of speed. This other guy and I threw ourselves down on the bed of the truck just as the other truck slammed into the side of us. I thought I was dead for sure. It tore the entire wheel of the front of out 2 1/2 ton truck. Luckily noone was hurt seriously. The pucker factor was very great though! The End.

ChromeBoy 0 #18 May 16, 2002 The reason I say that mormons don't like me is because I tried to sleep with Marie Osmond but it didn't work because she is mormon and doesn't drink so I had a hard time trying to convince her!

steve1 5 #19 May 16, 2002 I'm surprised that Mary was so difficult! She always drank like a fish when I was out with her in Salt Lake. She'd get really drunk and then the next thing you know she'd want me to jump in the sack with her. It broke her heart when I told her I couldn't do it because I was already taken. Maybe it soured her on all men after that. Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
