Just trash. I lived in Tucson forever ago, knew people who hung out there, one that got shot there....and it's trash, just trash. The people who frequent that place are just as happy cutting your tongue out as they are to look at you.
Don't risk your life.

This bar caters to a certain clientele that I do not consider myself part of. If you go here you must meet certain standards such as ride a Harley, be in a Harley gang, have a beard that makes ZZ Top jealous and wear nothing but leather and denim. Having only stood in this bar for less than 5 minutes before seeing the banjo kid from Deliverance and getting non stop dirty looks, I will admit my personal experience was lacking. However, friends of mine have gone and had similar experiences as I. With that said, enter at your own risk, but if youre in town after a long day of swinging from your Ape Hangers, park your chopper and head on in.
PROS: A true biker bar, for locals and those in the 'know' only
CONS: If you're not the seriouse biker type, dont bother.

If you enjoy ungroomed, burp-in-your-face-cuz "it's the natural thing to do, ain't it?" types of aged, illiterate unwashed drunken bikers with leathery sunburnt skin (male and female), then...you might find this place appealing. But beware the rest rooms, known to be the most dangerous in town...don't expect a mixed drink. it's beer and a shot of whatever, served by a dirty-handed barmaid, in glasses rinsed in same ol' same' old dishwater, and by the way she still looks ten months pregnant, though she had the kids 15 years earlier, but that's part of the charm--or part of tomorrow morning's intestinal distress on the john-- if you live beyond the scrutiny of the outlaw militaristic white brotherhood who seem to own the place..
I've been going to the bandit since I started sneakin into bars in the seventies and have never been intimidated. I'm not a biker and don't want to be a wannabe but if i want a place where i get an honest answer to a question and good directions(i moved away in the 80's) this is where i go. I've been around the world 9 times and this is the only place in Tucson that hasn't changed.
