I love going to gay bars about as much as I love getting a root canal. Still, when Empress Kathleen says you're going out, you don't say no. It's pretty much guaranteed to be a good time. Add in a little David K (who seems to pretty much know every last gay in town), and Blake's entertainment value goes from decent to uproarious. Although one typically goes for the heavily-sauced beverages served in wimpy plastic cups* to get into the mood, I opted for some more low-key beer. I shoulda figured... it's a gay bar. They offer a selection of bottled "lite" everything. Ew. So... Corona it was! But, really... quality of booze products isn't the draw here, anyway. I'm pretty sure I've never witnessed a live drag show that parallels this one, orchestrated by a masterful maestroette. Between jiggly obese performers, acrobatic back walkovers, and even one performer with a set of true double-X chromosomes, this drag performance throws in the kitchen sink. A scene without excessive judgment, reasonably-priced beer, and an eyeful of men that look convincingly like women -- all this with friends on a Thursday night. Not much beats that. P.S. To the sketchy guy who totally ground up against me while I was navigating the crowd back to my people after using the loo... not cute, and not flattering. If I wanted a little play from you, I'd have let you known. Kthnxbai. ----- * Again, unless you're David K and somehow manage to finagle real glassware out of the bartenders.

Situated right in Center City and practically on Broad Street, Oscar's is definitely worth a look. This place is home to an unusually heterogeneous crowd, all seeming to appreciate the various strings of Michael Jackson, Queen, and Police songs. The Jukebox is essential. The 22 oz. tall glasses of Yuengling for $3 is also essential to its success as a venue! They also have a really nice, cheap dinner and snack menu. Burgers for $5 or less, $1.75 french fries, etc. It's nice not having to pay $5 for a few fries. My only complaints are: it was a little over crowded...which isn't too terrible until your service slows down considerably. Our service became slow and non-existent. There was also smoking inside. It was a great place to meet up with some friends that I haven't seen in a few years.

Best best happy hour ever. If memory serves me correctly (odds are it doesn't), happy hr is from 5 pm - 9 pm. $2.50 well drinks and draft beers, free oysters and chips and salsa on Fridays, great patio, shuffleboard, Taqueria Cancun across the street, free shots when they play the song Fernando .... what more do you need?!
