Then we'd get take-out from Masala, perhaps trying to feel clean again. I miss that. But it did always depress me to see people in there when it was nice outside.traca de broonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09969395438101441866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-41737597780372315712007-01-25T14:15:00.000-06:002007-01-25T14:15:00.000-06:00Churlita,

I still see lots of old customers around town when I'm back. We used to call getting past the Deadwood pinballers 'running the gauntlet'. That backdoor is where I used to get my girlfriend in.matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05369089015190917398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-65349132003176840752007-01-25T13:40:00.000-06:002007-01-25T13:40:00.000-06:00Churlita,

It looked ready to fall down at any moment after the tornado. <br /><br />I also don't think there's a flash powerful enough to illuminate the inside of the Deadwood.Brandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10484284471046027179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-73743843860106509622007-01-25T12:47:00.000-06:002007-01-25T12:47:00.000-06:00Booda Baby,

There's also a couch or two, I think, but it's still mostly booths - even the big Mafia booth in the back corner.<br /><br />Dexter,<br /><br />I agree to an extent. I went there last winter one day around 4'ish on a Sunday and it was really nice and mellow. I just feel bad when it's super cool and snowy outside and people are rotting away in a stinky bar. Does that make sense?<br /><br />Matt,<br /><br />I bet I saw you there and didn't even know it. I basically lived there for a while when I was in college. I was one of those scary punk rock kids playing pinball.Churlitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05018288474865559384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-38654320248260520332007-01-25T12:36:00.000-06:002007-01-25T12:36:00.000-06:00The Deadwood was great for chill outs.

I used to sneak my first serious girlfriend(I still think about here A LOT after 20 years, still *kicks self in the ass*) into the Deadwood just to hang out and meet people. She was 18 and I was 21 so I wasn't cradle robbing. <br /><br />I went there a few years ago. It was one of those "You can't go home again" experiences. <br /><br />Still lots of fuzzy, slightly off-kilter memories of those booths. Good craziness.matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05369089015190917398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-90864282533816177952007-01-25T11:25:00.000-06:002007-01-25T11:25:00.000-06:00Not to be a contrarian but the Deadwood on a Sunda...Not to be a contrarian but the Deadwood on a Sunday is one of the most tolerable times to be there.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04839837286189113610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-7726189959922087722007-01-25T11:21:00.000-06:002007-01-25T11:21:00.000-06:00Ha!!

Okay. what does it say about me) that, even without a photo, I had instant and THOROUGH recall of every nookcranny andpinballmachine. Sort of tragic, that there was no pool table. But it DID have excellent shitty coffee. A great joint for doing the New York Times crossword puzzle. A great joint all around. <br /><br />If someone were to invent the Deadwood NOW, they'd furnish it with thrift store, sagging coiled sofas and chairs and they'd miss how great those booths are for friendly talks during the day.booda babyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09424036488795599663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-21233694515404098872007-01-25T10:11:00.000-06:002007-01-25T10:11:00.000-06:00It's from a Talking Heads song.
