Rhythm Room Bar

Postby PonyTime » Thu Sep 21, 2017 3:59 pm

Scatershooting wondering about the Rythem Room bar on Yale (now SMU) Blvd.

Would I be correct in remembering that after one paid a cover at this place pitchers would be 25 cents? My memory is hazy - perhaps it was too many quarter pitchers at Rythem Room...

This is the place that is now the Green Elephant - correct? (Stempys, Stone Pony, Home,...)

The place I remember (late 90s-early 00s) was the Across the Street Bar. I believe it was a $5 cover and $.25 pitchers. it was eventually stopped by MADD. I believe it is was where the sushi place and pizza place now sit.

I definitely remember that one. And the Ice House next door - complete hole - but very lax on the I.D. checking...

You forgot the Harlequin Rugby murals. The Rhythym Room was great. It once had a banner for the highest Jagermeister sales in the United States.

So true. To Alcohol - the cause of ... and the solution to ... all of life's problems.

I have to agree. In my college days it was 5 years for possession of any amount. Now times have changed and I have trouble seeing it more dangerous than alcohol. And tax the hell out of it.

Should you attribute that to Home Simpson?
