If you know those big houses built near the horse park in the late 80's. 1 or 2 are Hatfield's and the other 2 are McCoy's. when they made money in coal they moved next door to each other and built massive homes.

Sadly, neither TLC or TCA are true to their roots but TLC is my favorite now. TCA has gone from a place by and for horsemen to a social place to eat and drink. I seem to have the touch getting folks into TLC but seem to be the kiss of death for the TCA which always humors me.

Belle Brezing (The Belle Watling in Gone With the Wind) had her house of ill repute a few blocks away from the current TLC. When she died they auctioned off the bricks 1 by 1 till the house was gone. Some made their way into the construction of the fireplace in TLC.

As for the Lafayette, I'm working on making sure that becomes something when LFUCG moves out, something other than a parking garage.


Interesting, I would be interested in seeing this building is restored and not torn down. Keep me posted.

On Thursday night, the best play is to head down to Richmond for the downtown bars. Thursday is the big night for EKU students. Lots of slutty girls in the bars getting hammered and most people can score there.

Doesn't Richmond have one of the highest STD rates in the country?

Lol, I'm not surprised if they do. Keep in mind, I'm not telling anyone to do anything, just offering observations from a lifelong Kentuckian

Not sure, but Lubbock is known for it

Drinking in Richmond, a UK tradition since Prohibition!

I thought the only people who went to Richmond were under 21.

If Kentucky wins Saturday and you want to be around the party go to Tin Roof.

Also Crossings is a gay bar, I don't think that was cleared up.

Yeah, Lexington is a good place if you're gay. Even the Mayor is gay. Lots of stuff for LGBTs to do over a weekend. And then, there's Richmond...

Shhhhhhhhh

Also, if you need to travel to Richmond in order to get laid, you've got some thinking to do.

Grits:

Love all the old Belle Breezing stuff. I know when they turned those row houses on Upper that were at one time one of her houses into the Transylvania softball locker rooms, they found a ton of great old stuff (i.e. old police badges). That's great that they used it in TLC. Makes me love that place even more.

Growing up, I would go to TCA with an old horse vet from Versaillles and his family. But yeah, my understanding is it became a big happy hour spot.

I'll let you know what I can about the Lafayette going forward.

Dude. No one over the age of 21 or West of I-75 thinks Richmond is cool. Give it up.

Well, I'm a female and I went there with gay guy friends. I don't think they were interested.
