We have little to no mullets down here, bad drivers & a lot of Mormons still. We also have a pretty big Pagan community, a couple of pretty good bars, The Utah Shakespearean Festival, the Neil Simon Festival, a renaissance faire and are within an hour to a lot of beautiful places. We go camping, get drunk, and have a lot of fun.Dyanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16140598936212094345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754086061123343561.post-33612899077469402462011-07-12T04:29:42.067-06:002011-07-12T04:29:42.067-06:00mullets rule, so utah rules :Dmullets rule, so utah rules :DAnte Babajahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08253796291487786953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754086061123343561.post-13420987169434333492011-07-11T21:42:55.500-06:002011-07-11T21:42:55.500-06:00Nice review...I haven't been to Utah since I w...Nice review...I haven't been to Utah since I was a kid and we were camping at State Parks, but going there now the drinking laws would be rough.

They've had 5 democrat mayors in a row and some of them have been as left as it gets. There are several gay Salt Lake City council members. Salt Lake City is evolving and during the gay pride parade this year, Rosanne Barr declared "This city is SO MUCH more progressive than when I grew up here!"Cheeseboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02358419997798632644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754086061123343561.post-35122109089861983202011-07-11T20:42:42.888-06:002011-07-11T20:42:42.888-06:00You are hanging in the wrong places.

Brevies - This is a movie theater that you can watch movies, eat and - gasp - even drink beer! There are large light boards on the side of the screen that you can see when your food is ready.<br /><br />2. Fiddler's Elbow - This is my favorite bar/grill in Salt Lake City. Great food and I hear a variety of beer. It's in Sugarhouse. <br /><br />There are other really cool bars in Salt Lake. I'd have to ask my cool non-mormon friends to remember what the best ones. <br /><br />You need to find someone cool and someone that drinks in Salt Lake City. They will show you that it is not nearly as bad as you make it out to be.Cheeseboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02358419997798632644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754086061123343561.post-54156606268604637162011-07-11T20:40:05.132-06:002011-07-11T20:40:05.132-06:00Finally!

Up until ten years ago, there was no such thing as "Last Call" in my city. We could club with a drink in hand until the sun came up. Ah, those were the days. How do you ban Happy Hour? It's called Happy Hour! It makes people happy! That blows. No wonder everyone who's ever played for the Jazz except Stockton and Malone have tried to leave there.Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14371841750506260427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754086061123343561.post-59460780013393283832011-07-11T19:28:03.119-06:002011-07-11T19:28:03.119-06:00lol to beer for the shower. never been to idaho so...lol to beer for the shower. never been to idaho so love your blog and info :)The Onion Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01226914646180117369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1754086061123343561.post-42631776045377298242011-07-11T19:25:38.272-06:002011-07-11T19:25:38.272-06:00I do NOT like mullets.
