<p><b style="font-size:14px;color: #40B033;">Scooter&#8217;s 656th bar, first visited in 2009.</b></nobr> <br /><br> <center> <img class='img600' src="http://www.scootersbars.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/p2860389.jpg" alt="Quarthouse Bar, Council Bluffs"> </center> <br /> 
<p>We headed over to Main Street and drove up and down both sides trying to decide what our next bar would be.   We were looking specifically for a place called <b>Uncle Charlie&#8217;s Boston Boozers</b> at 519 S. Main because that name is just awesome.    But it either does not exist anymore or is very well hidden because we could not find it.   But we did find the Quarthouse, and it was open.</p>
<p>This was a nice, quiet old-timer dive with canned beer.  There we a few other guys in here. I believe everyone was watching golf.</p>
<p>
<p>Update:   There is a pool table in the back room, and they have karaoke on the weekend.</p>

<p>This was a pretty nice sports bar.   We discussed our plans for the day &#8212; would we stop when we reached 100, or was 100 just a goal and we&#8217;d hit up a few more until we were ready to go home?   We decided we would stop at 100 since it was a nice round number.</p>

<p>This was a really nice looking old bar.  However, the bartender was MIA.   We sat there for about 10 minutes before she appeared from a back room, surprised to see us.</p>
<p>After she served us she disappeared again.   A few minutes later a woman came in who had left her card here the previous night.   She looked around, checked the other room, then came back.  &#8220;&#8221;Is anyone working here?&#8221;" she asked us.  &#8220;&#8221;Nope, we had to serve ourselves,&#8221;" B joked.   She finally managed to find the bartender and got her card.</p>
