oh, upper deck… i’m so happy it’s your fifth anniversary. i’m so glad that nestled in the heart of tourist trap/college fuck central, that you are there to ease my worries and make me feel so welcome.
i have such warm fuzzy feelings for this bar. something tells me that my experiences here in charleston would not be nearly as glorious without the tried and true guaranteed good smoky time i am sure to have each and every time i walk down that narrow alley, mysteriously wet and puddled with god knows what.
it is in this bar that i have started and more than likely ended some of my best nights in this town. i have also given an estimated 40% of my income away to car bombs, pbrs, vodka tonics, and if the timing is right a good ol’ happy hour pitcher of long island iced tea. there are some people that i only see at this place, and there are some people i was only priviledged to know because of their drinking schedule or their killer connect four skills.
dj nights, dance parties, 80s birthdays, art shows, happy hours, jello shots, naked women, stinging eyes, smelly clothes, ass holes, artists, musicians, dirty kids, preps, pizza, darts, hair cuts in the bathroom, the writing on the wall, you can do and see it all.
everyone who has over served and taken care of me, thanks a bunch.
and thanks for the free whiskey. nice touch.
