big shitty



there is an after hours bar in chicago called big city tap, but everyone calls it big shitty.  when i say everyone calls it that, i mean everyone, to the point where i have actually never heard it called by its actual name.  you really don't go there unless you close out a 2 a.m. last call bar within walking distance.  you certainly wouldn't get in a cab to go there.

if i owned that joint, i would make some changes to the place so that people wouldn't think it was so damn shitty; either that or change the name.  the only other option would be to really embrace the name, maybe even use big city nights by the scorpions in a commercial, with city changed to shitty, of course.

  1. And yet it's still in business. You can't go wrong if you're selling alcohol.

  4. I love The Scorpions! Great group-- although I can't believe McDonald's is using their song "Rock You Like A Hurricane" for their latest ad for the Angus Burger.
