Did you ever steal a pitcher of beer from Bling Pig on Sundays?
no because I'm not a degenerate.
I do however still have my plastic blind pig mug dated 2006. You bought it once for whatever regular price it was, then they had a lifetime agreement where you could bring it with you and fill it with PBR for $1.

I lived there a few Summers. O’Malley’s was an easy walk and they had all you can drink nights. Maybe Monday?

They definitely had penny pitchers on Sundays for a time while I was there. They might also have done sink or swim nights, too. It was either them, or Lowery's, if memory serves.

fun trivia: After O'Malleys eventually turned into Dial America, and then that one subsequently went under...it was then purchased and briefly lived in by Brantley Gilbert. This would have been circa 2008 or 2009. Literally, he just lived in the giant open warehouse space.

When I was in my second tour the place next to Flying Buffalo had Wednesday all you can drink if I recall. That was in Mid/Late 80s. it’s all a blur now.

O'Malley's had drink and drown on Wednesday nights when I was a student in the early 90s. You drank free until someone went to the bathroom or left. Needless to say, the football team lined up just outside the restrooms and inside the exit doors. They also had nickel night well drinks on Thursdays (their big party night). I got hammered for a dollar many a Thursday evening.
ETA: What complex was at Atlanta Hwy and Alps Rd? I lived there a couple of summers but cannot remember the name of them to save my life.

Was that Le Chateau?

I thought that was at Epps Bridge and West Broad.

Might have been; I remembered it as being out by the Kmart or whatever on the way to the mall, but that was 30-odd years ago, so I may well be wrong.

He didn't release his first album until 2009 (under an indie label ran by Colt Ford) and was living in Nashville. How could he have afforded to buy that building, and also live in it, when he was also living and working in Nashville?

I keep thinking Riverbend or something like that. My girlfriend at the time lived in the complex now known as Arches on the Lake right next to the golf course when they were built in the early 90s. Those are on Riverbend Rd.
The ones I’m trying to remember were about where the Hilltop Grille is now.
