Interesting to get sort of hit on by Cougars tonight....

[Doug]

I go to some some bar with my "Stepson-in law".... or whatever you call your stepdaughter's husband....

We were stuck with each other as our respective wives were doing their stuff together...whatever that is. Power was out, so we Decide to go to the local ( dive) bar.

Me and this guy drink 3 pitchers in about an hour, flip a coin ( by the the bartendress) to determine whose CC the bill goes to to ( nice degenerate touch, btw). I won

Oddly this place was full of Cougars ( and I'm 46) so like 50-60 year old women that wanted me badly and were starting conversations and such. Very weird for me, but somewhat cool, too ! I much prefer to flirt with under 40 types when my wife ain't around.

A buddy of mine back in LV called these kind of joints "Pro Bars" as in professional drinkers...

It was both cool and creepy at the same time.

place was called "the Well"

Redneck trashy country/sports bar. Mostly blue-collar alcoholic types, typical CT generic trash with no style, and maybe a few local yuppie Cromwell rich kids.

Wood paneling inside, very "country" looking. Nothing inspiring, imaginative or creative about the decor... though I suppose it does have a bit of that "country" "wood cabin" feel too it.

Eh, not a horrible place - but certainly not a destination.

Typical boring and bland selection of alcohol and beer, nothing special.

Service was ok I guess, so that gives it a bit of a plus.

Still better than Rookies, though not as big and a bit more trashy.

Was this review …?

I have no love for them rednecks

[Doug]

I'd rather go to "The Jug" from Gimme three steps fame !

I love Rookies , BTW....hot joint, big, TV's everywhere, have bands, lots of pool tables, and good food. About the best bar in the state, IMO ! Lots of specials like $2.50 draft pints and stuff.

Comparing the well to Rookies is just wrong !

The pro Cougar bar ( I found the place to be depressing) could serve its purpose though....if you wanted an easy one nighter with a 55year old type......sounds too much like my wife already.

interesting

so 50-60 year olds still want to get with dudes?? That's a bit surprising, I wouldn't have guessed that at all

[Doug]

I do believe so !

You better hope so if you're 55 and married, eh ?

I think many women of this age still want it, many 50-60 rich guys would certainly take on some Lindsay Lohan type. The Cougars are there, but I think of them being more like 45 and looking for 25. I guess a female hunter of 55 would take on a 45, or maybe even a 75, if she justs wants anybody.

I got that feel at the Well. No young girls, but old ones there that look hungry.

I'm very certain I read the signs correctly both times in this place. I'm drinking with my Stepson in law.....and older broads ( than me) twice in an hour sit nearby and start up conversation with us/ me. I play with it a bit more ( he's only 30).


It was odd on many levels....revolting, inviting, sexy, naughty, fun etc.
