It also is not just young people at these places. KC joints that stick out to me are Caddyshack (one of my favorites), The Ship, Tower Tavern, The Brick, Hi-Dive, Blue Line, Lucky Boys, Campground, Voltaire, Helen's JAD...that is just to name a few.
In "normal" times you go into any of those places and they are thriving 7 of those you could catch a game at. Makes me wonder if this is more of a suburban\rural issue?
Makes me miss meeting some people for dinner on 39th street and grabbing a mystery beer at Hi Dive. Looking forward to normal times.

You didnt even mention the best one.... zoo Bar! [Reply]
It’s funny, I got laid more in my 30’s once I stopped chasing pussy and felt more comfortable going out alone relaxing, having a few drinks and not giving a shit. There’s always a game on to watch, people to bullshit with and games to play on your phone to keep you entertained. You start acting like it’s your personal living room and people pick up on it.

I tried to tell guys on the hunt that women can spot that shit from a mile away. Just sit down & have a drink & be yourself will draw more pussy than you can shake your dick at. [Reply]

I still stop into Caddy Shack about once a month. Usually after eating dinner somewhere near the river market we will pop in there for a beer. [Reply]

Hi Dive appears to still be doing pretty well, although I haven't been there since Covid because its tiny with no ventilation (I switched to MO Brew because of the garage doors and outdoor seating). [Reply]
