it's hip to be square

1/3/2010 10:57:42 AM

1/3/2010 11:13:27 AM

It was a lot less smoky.

1/3/2010 11:16:59 AM

i would really like to know who said that to you

$10 says that person isn't a regular

unless it was john...nothing he says surprises me

1/3/2010 11:36:55 AM

is jackpot the same without billows of smoke plowing you in the face?

1/3/2010 11:38:27 AM

I really love jackpot.

1/3/2010 11:39:12 AM

i always though JP was just as smoky as any other bar...

1/3/2010 11:39:15 AM

it was a little weird...i kinda missed the smoke

and i think my hangover is worse without it, because i didn't drink that much last night and my head is pounding

1/3/2010 11:40:04 AM

I didn't recognize the dude who said it, he was in a group of dudes who thought they were way cooler than they were

it was very odd without the smoke and I, too have a hangover

but I drank quite a bit

1/3/2010 11:53:23 AM

i, too, would love to know who this was

1/3/2010 12:15:38 PM

This was the first year that I drank a High Life mimosa at midnight on New Year's

1/3/2010 12:24:25 PM

I'm sad that I don't have a picture of the miller mimosas

the other pictures are hilarious though

Quote :

"Production has started on a documentary about the Jackpot, the building itself, and the Briggs house (the one attached to the bar). Don't ask me why when it comes to the first two, but the house has a great story."

I'd love to know when that is finished. I also have read the writeups on goodnight, raleigh and preservationnc about the house and the possibility that it may need to be moved in order to be saved--any more info about that? Would that mean the end for jackpot as well?

1/3/2010 3:41:03 PM

^ right there with you

1/3/2010 3:46:52 PM

^^

1/3/2010 3:54:28 PM

i, too, read the article about the Briggs House on PresNC's site. The developer is interested in developing (how redundant) the corner lots and wants the houses gone. PNC is trying to get it detached and moved.

/interested

1/3/2010 3:59:29 PM

last night was the first time i played rock n roll bingo and i had a lot of fun

but it will likely be my last for a long time, too sadness!

i won a pitcher! thank you, kenny loggins

1/7/2010 1:42:14 PM

last time playing bingo or last time going to jp?

1/7/2010 1:46:01 PM

well... potentially both!

but probably playing bingo. cause i leave for vietnam next thurs and after that i'm back at school. but i may be at jpot this weekend for one last hurrah! we'll see. but i <3 the bingo!

1/7/2010 1:47:13 PM

well its not like you've been there much recently anyways

and

vietnam???

1/7/2010 1:48:37 PM

i know!! i was just thinking about that last night and then i realized my time was up sadness.

yea to study abroad.

1/7/2010 1:49:13 PM

oh wow

1/7/2010 1:50:30 PM

we had an OC round last night

started with the theme song, which i hate to admit is pretty damn good

and this dude came over and was like, "come on, man, turn this shit off, like now"

i lol'd

1/7/2010 1:56:35 PM

phantom planet right

1/7/2010 1:58:31 PM

man i would kill an OC round

1/7/2010 1:59:37 PM

with Max Fischer on drums

1/7/2010 2:01:04 PM

he stopped like six feet in front of the booth and just started making "cut it" motions

i didn't even know the guy

his chutzpah was comical

1/7/2010 2:01:12 PM

when I got there the other night some friends who were in town from Boone came up to me and were like, "he played the first two Strokes albums front to back, request some DMX to throw him off"

I just laughed

1/7/2010 2:04:18 PM

i only played the first strokes album

i probably confused them because i played the pre-9/11 version

1/7/2010 2:05:52 PM

maybe she only said the first, I was a bit drunk

and definitely would have recognized and loved the fact that you played the pre-9/11 version

she was dead-set on hearing some DMX though, but I told her she had to grow the balls to request it

1/7/2010 2:07:32 PM

VB never has what I request... he's too mainstream for me

1/7/2010 2:30:33 PM

1/10/2010 2:46:09 AM

i wanna go, i've never been.

can I make a thread about it after?

1/10/2010 2:54:57 AM

just a heads up, jp is closed tomorrow

1/10/2010 5:18:35 AM

why?

1/10/2010 11:51:30 AM

jackpot does nothing for me...i guess because I don't have tracks on my arm.

1/10/2010 11:55:55 AM

^A pox on your house.

1/10/2010 11:58:24 AM

^^^ christmas party

1/10/2010 3:30:52 PM

I haven't been in months, it seems. Is it still smokey as shit?

1/11/2010 1:41:13 PM

nope

1/11/2010 1:42:26 PM

lol at the Pitchfork belt buckle

1/11/2010 1:48:14 PM

how you going to have a christmas party this late

1/11/2010 1:50:07 PM

Because that makes it at least 18x more hip.

1/11/2010 1:56:00 PM

most bars/restaurants have their christmas parties in january because they're open on christmas

humble pie also had their party last night, for example

1/11/2010 2:23:32 PM

plus i'd imagine you pull more business in december than january

you'd wanna close the bar down on a night you'd expect the least amount of lost revenue
