You come expecting as much fun as it used to be four years ago. You smile when you enter ... happy to be back... but then they treat you like shit.
They tell you where to sit, and they seated me between two straight couples – otherwise not a problem, but both were not interested in meeting anyone new, but rather they came to gawk at the drag queens.
Both couples had an excellent view, but they gave me a seat with a view of THE COLUMN. And when I asked if they were serious:
You sit here. You buy drink, What you want, and then they leave.
Then you wait 20 minutes for your drink and they all completely ignore you as if you had the pest.
Barcode:
Come as a Stranger,
Sit in the corner alone,
Give us your Money
And the leave as a Stranger.
This used to be such a fun place.
Used to be.
I left my half full drink, paid, and left after 1 hour of being ignored.
Never felt more unwelcome as a gay man in a gay bar.
