OT: Truly A Sad Day (RIP)

[Tad Footeball]

Yes, it hasn't been the same for years but yet another Miami institution has died. My heart and my permanently damaged liver ache today, gentlemen. RIP.

 

[TemplarCane]

I am sorry for your loss. RIP.

That blows. I remember when your fathers moustache closed. I cried.

 

[Go Canes!!]

Many, many years ago one of the worst, if not the worst alcohol induced puke sessions of my life started at the Tavern.

Man that was a great night. Well until I had to be washed off by a hose at 2 am.

Damnnnn. Haven't heard that name in years!

Fox's was the final nail in the coffin.

I can remember Gino Toretta bartending late Saturday night after he played in a home game, great times.

There's been a lot of 'blowing' of various kinds going on in the depths of that place for decades.

I'm not so sure there was or ever will be another bar in the country that size that had that amount of college and NFL greats as patrons and even occasional bartenders. So many stories like that about Gino.

We once sat and discussed Shockey's draft stock for like an hour there on a Tuesday night.....with Shockey....as he mooched pitchers of Miller Lite.

Then there was the night OJ showed up too.

I'm really gonna miss puking in and on that filthy filthy bathroom.

Even I have been to that joint and I am not from Miami... That was a good spot, got torched in there one night with my buddies.

Yup. Right next to The Chili Pepper.

My last stop to Miami , my buddy and I stopped in the grove and went to the Tavern. It was really really dead. We were the only ones in there. The whole grove was pretty dead too.

Coconut Grove died the day they started construction on Mayfair.

Wynwood and the Grove residents and Uber/Lyft pretty much killed the Grove. But those things also tend to be cyclical in Miami too.
