Scooter’s 351st bar, first visited in 2007.

Dad's Hole In the Wall, Kansas City

This was a nice, tiny little spot. Bar seating for 9, with a total capacity of 32. Almost completely invisible from the main road, you have to be looking for it to find it.

Formerly an arcade and water slide

Scooter’s 338th bar, first visited in 2007.

Sports Page Bar & Grill, Kansas City

We had a hard time finding this place which was why we had to do some backtracking. We paused for lunch at an Arby’s and while we were there deduced that our next stop had to be located down the hill across the street.

The locals all touted this as the premier bar in the area and the best place to be. It was large and decent, but an older man to our left was being a little too pompous about this place and describing everything else as a shithole.

Scooter’s 337th bar, first visited in 2007.

61st St Pit Stop, Kansas City

Your basic dive bar. I can’t remember for sure but this might be the place where our 10oz draws were 75 cents. We had to chug, though, because several guys were about to try to squeeze a massive beer cooler through that small front door and we didn’t want to get stuck waiting.

To the Hoop Bar & Grill, Kansas City

A pretty small sports bar in a commercial area. I had a Bud Select and quickly remembered why I don’t get Bud Select. A patron to our right filled us in on a couple of nearby places to try, includuding The Sports Page plus a place further down the road that he had never worked up the courage to try. So naturally that’s where we went next. :)
