A Dive Bar is a cheap place to have a few cold beers after work in crowd of people who get along some also have wine or liquor yesterday they only had cold beer.

Dive bars are very popular to a degree some have standing crowds , some don't but all are great places to relax and they should have food that's good and cheap and goes well with the booze . Sports TVs are popular today , yesterday they were not found in many dive bars . One constant about a great dive bar is when you head inside no one gives a shit about politics much as people know its a touchy subject and they want to have some fun drink a few cold ones and kick back just relaxing with friends and regulars

Dive bars were once joints that looked like "dives" on the outside but today that's changing somewhat as the good old places are gone and you have to take what you can get today , that said some are still true dive looking joints but have slowed down from their heyday

Ill start with the most famous and greatest Dive Bar in NOVA's history The Vienna INN Rip Mike Abraham !

Green Leaf on Rt 1 , Green Dolphin on 29 in Fairfax, Janets Place , The joint at Cedar Lane and Rt 29 around the corner from the 7-11 where the postal workers went to back in the 70s and 80s , The joint that became JJs on Huntington Ave before about 85 , Georges Inn near 4 mile Run , Mr Smiths of Georgetown up Tysons on Rt 7 , The Sign Of The Whale at Lohemanns Plaza , Mamas and PJ Skidoos in Fairfax City ,Franks in Falls Church , Fat Tuesdays off Braddock by GMU, Sulleys out Rt 50 in Chantilly and Kilroys on Braddock at the beltway plus Bardo Rodeo but that was too expensive to be fully qualified as a Dive Bar , Kates in Springfield so many more if only the brain cells would cooperate LOL I have drank some cold beer in all these joints ! Plus Ichibolds 1320 Club , Dauphines Good Guys Hank Diteles Maryland Toots Bar in Hollywood Md Tiki Bar in Solomans The Jetty at Kent Narrows Red Eyes dock Bar Fishmarket in Old town not cheap but was great yesterday before it was changed and F'ed up , Bull Feathers Chadwicks and the little deck joint looking at national Airport at Dangerfield Island and more joints in Maryland including Purple Moose Cork Bar and DAJAXS Favorite beach dive bars , Harbor Inn at Ocean City Big Sams at Va Beach and Thirsty Camel in Norfolk at Oceanview ! LOL

Snake and Jakes in New Orleans.

Great local Dive Bar effectively in a garage located in a residential neighborhood.

Opens at 7 pm and closes when ever.

Been there many times, brought my dogs in and have watched the bar dogs do Kibble Shots from the bar stools.

Hooters is laying off thousands of workers

Hooters laying off 500 workers across Indiana because of coronavirus


The Hooters restaurant chain reported to the state Tuesday it has laid off 502 workers across Indiana, including in Portage, Merrillville and Schererville.

The Atlanta-based chain sent a mass layoff notice to the Indiana Department of Workforce Development after the coronavirus pandemic ended dining in its restaurants. The company blamed the job cuts on "the sudden and unprecedented effects of the coronavirus outbreak on our business, Hooters of America."

The layoffs include workers at the Hooters restaurants at 771 E. 81st Place in Merrillville, 1665 Olmsted Drive in Portage and 1650 U.S. 41 in Schererville.

"This is a partial closure and reduction in workforce; not all HOA employees will be impacted. At this time, this action, based upon all available information, is anticipated to be permanent," Assistant General Counsel Benjamin Benson wrote in a letter to the state.

The layoffs include 260 "Hooters Girls" across the state and started last month.
