Coyote Ugly Bricktown Bar - March 09

[kmf563]

Frat Boys...AKA...Sizzler fest. Agreed that it is very annoying to the over 30 crowd. To the under 30 females it's the place to be, well named Sausage fest. To the females over 30 it's Sizzler fest. I'm sure you can figure out the reasoning for the name change.

On the other hand, once in a while it's quite entertaining for my circle of friends and I to show up and run the roost. We hand out lessons and juice boxes on the way out.

Maybe you should choose more mature places to go instead of going where you know the immature people are and then complaining later?

[Oh GAWD the Smell!]

Good idea....I'll go to some other bar that isn't full of young 20's males getting hammered and making an ass of themselves.

As soon as you tell me about one :P

Unfortunately I'm not given a choice sometimes. These are the nights I make the best of it and have a good time anyway.

[Midtowner]

And as to "frat guys" up in the thread- you're lucky those frat guys show up at any of these clubs to keep them open. Multiple times now I have seen references to frat guys dripping with derision. WTF?

I don't even dignify that sort of crap. It's a mostly untrue strereotype, and I don't like it. Where I'm from, the "frat boys" are the best-dressed (non-Guido) guys at the bar who are best able to handle their liquor. Sure, there are a few which give us a bad name, but I'm pretty sure the incidence of low lives is no greater in fraternities than in any other campus organization. Considering the fact that many groups would boot anyone showing questionable character during their pledge period, I'd have to assume (without evidence) that hanging out with a fraternity is a hell of a lot safer than the hockey team, medieval club, etc.

Any Hudson's will do. There it's the 40+ crowd getting hammered and making an ass of themselves. If you don't want to be around hammered jackasses, don't go to popular bars on weekends. (Not YOU, you....just mean that in general to everyone that thinks they get to define how people should act as to their tastes.)

[Jesseda]

I just told my wife about it and she is all excited, we went to the one in las vegas and loved it. WE DONT SELL WATER HERE!!!!!

[jbrown84]

Exactly. Just because it isn't everyones favorite place/concept/etc should we really hope that it fails?

Exactly. If this does well, Dave & Busters or ESPN Zone could be next.

[wsucougz]

medieval club, etc.

Leave us out of this!

[Karried]

Yeah, maybe I had a bad first impression in Vegas... the guy on crack ( and I'm serious) was spilling beer all over everyone, including our party.. I had it in my hair, down my back and everytime we moved, he or someone else bumped into us and spilled more beer. Finally, he started stumbling and I think throwing up on the dance floor and was escorted out.

I hope it does well here in OKC, probably will. The dancers are talented and fun to watch.. the ones they called up in Vegas were practically falling off the stage as they were so drunk... I mean it was Vegas!

So, okay, I'll give it a chance, glad we have something new and wish them luck.

[Lauri101]

Sounds like everyone is dooming this place to failure. Nice attitude, guys.

Not at all - I truly hope they succeed. Having businesses suceed in Bricktown - or anywhere in OKC metro area - is a good thing for all of us.

Expressing an opinion of how one feels about a business model is NOT tantamount to wishing for failure. Coyote Ugly is a place my daughter and her friends will no doubt go to - I just don't plan on joining them!

[OKCMallen]

OKC will almost certainly never, ever, ever have an ESPN Zone. We need to set our sights on something more attainable.

[CuatrodeMayo]

That is what was said about a new skyscraper in OKC in our lifetimes.
That is what was said about getting the NBA only 3 years ago.

I wouldn't discount the progress of our city.

Yep, it's Vegas, where otherwise normal people go to do stupid stuff they wouldn't think about doing at home so they hopefully won't get caught......

[MrBojangles]

Went to the one in Vegas 5 years ago, had a blast. Went back a few weeks ago while in Vegas, not as much fun as the first time. Glad OKC is getting something different.

[kmf563]

I know I'll get killed for this one...but I'm not sure I want an ESPN Zone. I've been, not too impressed. Overpriced, full of middle aged Jocks - who are worse behaved than the Sizzlers, and the food wasn't so hot. I'd rather have a supersized BWW downtown or something new and improved. I like the TVs in the restrooms, and at the tables, and the upgrade in seating arrangements with comfy chairs. I like the recliners too. How about something in the middle of all of that?

Here is my question...with every other Coyote Ugly that has opened so far they have made a reality show with it and had auditions and a full entourage of events. Are they doing that for this one? When will the hype begin?

Go to their website and see what cities have one. Come back and tell us how many of them only have ONE major professional sports franchise. Glance at the populations difference. Average income differences.

We're doing great here, but get some perspective.

[CuatrodeMayo]

I realize that. I not saying we "deserve" an ESPN zone. I'm just saying we have been proven wrong before.

I'd much rather have something local vs. chain anyways.

[SoonerDustin]

My wife and I have been to the Coyote Ugly in Vegas a couple of times and the one in Denver. I can literally say I have had a better time at those places than at any other bar I have been to. I say, give it a shot when it opens...Lil' runs a tight ship and is very hands on with how the bar is ran and the entertainment.

I would love something built from the ground up locally, as well. Soemthing that is VERY focused on the Thunder, a Thunder HQ, if you will.

[metro]

like Desmond Mason's Sports Bar?

[CuatrodeMayo]

I agree.

[OKCMallen]

Or even just a local team HQ. There are other threads on this, but we don't have one legit sports bar downtown. Hell, even just a BWW opening up in Bricktown would be a massive improvement. Imagine the crowds for Thunder games, OU/OSU, March Madness, Big XII tourneys when they are in town, etc....

[Karried]

Yeah, The ThunderDome .. I'm in.

[Chefdavies]

Anyone remember how "BAROKC" did? no? yeah i think it was here 2 months? I believe that was a change. I personally would like to see a "have a nice day cafe." If anyone has been to one i'm sure you would agree its fun for all ages (above 21 of course).
