Calhoun’s update

Calhoun’s Sports Bar & Grill, the new sports bar on G.E. Patterson, asked me to let everyone know about the following improvements:

– They now have two new beers on tap:  Newcastle Brown Ale and DOS EQUIS SPECIAL LAGER!!!!!!  With XX Lager on tap, Calhoun’s may be seeing a lot more of me.  Wait, the Saucer also has Dos Equis Lager on tap.  And the Saucer also has hot waitresses in miniskirts.  Okay, beer alone may not be enough to get me in Calhoun’s.  But that’s okay, because they have a lot more!  See below…

– They now have the school food “pizzas” that you ate in the lunchroom when you were a kid.  Cheese, sausage, and pepperoni.  Those little rectangular pizzas were not half bad.  School food “sloppy joes,” on the other hand, were disgusting, glad Calhoun’s isn’t carrying those.  I remember growing up in the Little Rock School District, they’d have school food “sloppy joes” on Tuesday and school food “BBQ” on Thursday and they’d try to pass it off as two different menu items even though it was the SAME DAMN THING!  Even worse was the school food “fish.”  I had a friend of mine find an unidentified metallic object in the “fish” in junior high.  Anyway, Calhoun’s has the pizzas and I bet they’d work really well as drunk food.

– Smoke Eater has been installed to remove some of the smoke exhaled by those with filthy, nasty, disgusting nicotine addictions (my words, not Calhoun’s… they welcome smokers)

– They now have ESPN Full Court Package

– They’ll have the MLB package in time for opening day

– They’ll have a deck in the back by March so everyone can enjoy the nice weather.

– They’ll have the following Tiger games on:

January 23:  Tulsa, 7:00
January 26:  Gonzaga, 11:00 AM
January 30:  Houston, 7:00

I’ve heard the place stays pretty consistently packed with South Main locals.  Glad to hear they’re doing well.
