(St. Johns, Paducah, KY)

Scooter’s 1050th bar, first visited in 2014.

Stop #8 on our 9-states-in-1-day pub crawl, representing Kentucky.

We had planned on staying here for a little while, however two problems cropped up. The first was that we were at Touchdown Club (the previous bar) a lot longer than we had planned. The second problem was that we pulled up at WW Club only to find it closed.

Fortunately the bartender was still inside. It had been dead all evening show she had just close it minutes before we arrived. After hearing of our mission and how critical her bar was to a successful completion, she agreed to let us in for one quick round of shots.

We didn’t really get to look around, but I do know there’s a beer garden with an outdoor bar, there’s karaoke, and they sometimes grill around back.

(Downtown, Paducah, KY)

Scooter’s 774th bar, first visited in 2010.

As soon as we parked we knew this bar was more our speed. The covered patio overlooking the parking lot was filled with rough looking people, and as we stepped towards the door a very beat up car rolled up. A rather disheveled looking couple climbed out and headed into the bar with us.

We sat down at the bar near a man who seemed to recognize this couple. “I know you got no money, I’ll get yer drinks,” he told them. “But not for her, since she’s driving.”

As we worked our way through our beers, the man next to us started telling his friends a story that had a classic opening line:

“Remember how I told you about the son I didn’t know I had?”

His tale of $12,000 in back child support, an arrest, and having his license suspended kept us entertained the remainder of the visit.

As we were leaving a woman at the end of the bar who I had been talking to about out trip welcomed us to Paducah and suggested some sights to see.

Fat Moe’s Bar & Grill

(Downtown, Paducah, KY)

Scooter’s 773rd bar, first visited in 2010.

This place was quite a bit nicer than we were counting on, a beautiful bar in a beautiful building. (We parked in the rear so my outside photo doesn’t do it justice.)

The bar is filled with music and sports memorabilia. There’s a piano and a nice beer garden. We noticed a staircase but did not investigate to see if there’s anything upstairs.
