There's a bar I love in New Orleans called The Opium Den. It's this seedy little back alley place, members only. They've got mafia style booths, almost completely enclosed. All sorts of bad things happen there. Or good. Depending on perspective.

My second favorite bar is/was Florabama. It's in Orange Beach/Perdido Key, on the beach at the Alabama-Florida line. It got destroyed during Hurricane Ivan. But it's back open for business. It's a pretty famous bar. I'm sure some of you have heard of it. They do the mullet toss there every year. Not people mullets. Fish mullets. They haven't finished rebuilding it yet. But it used to have several stages, with a different live band playing in each section, 3 or 4 bars, massive dance floors, open air, and beach front.
