The Bar Crawl

As the weeks start to dwindle our time in Parma is almost to an end. We decided to kick it in to overdrive this weekend and visit 7 bars in one night with some good friends. We met some great people and had plenty of laughs along the way.  I tried taking photos but it got hard after a couple stops. (Not pictured below is a bar called Quickkys) Quickkys did not have the most welcoming atmosphere but had the best beer game special I have ever seen.  $1.75 Bud or Bud Light 20 Oz drafts! 

The first stop State Rd Tavern almost to 480. This was a large bar with great drink specials during happy hour.Julie and Katey were happy.
Kap and I decided to have a gentlemen game of people while the classy bartender engaged us in the topic of anal bleaching. We learned that anal bleaching cost is based on what color you want. Wow the more you know,  Parma citizens can be very informative.
The state Rd Tavern takes the old chip rack to a new level.  As you can see this place had some of the best food I saw all evening. A perfect diet of hot fries and beer to keep the locals happy. 
The next stop was Rock City Taphouse. This bar was very large and had a separate area for concerts.  We sat on the regular side and enjoyed a bucket of rum. This bucket of bad decisions featured 5 shots of rum and some other terrible ingredients.  A complete hangover package for only $9.99!
Next up is the classiest bar we visited all night the Tradesman Tavern. This has to be the cleanest place on the bar crawl. They also had a DJ playing dance music but everyone knows a true Parma resident doesn't dance they just get piss drunk we decided to follow suit. 
Not great drink specials at the Tradesman but you do get to be surrounded by some local art.
Good Olde Daze was hands down the best bar we visited.  This place is a classic dive!
Our friend Carter made it out with us and the party really got started.  This blurry photo is an accurate representation to how I'm sure we were all feeling. 
Cater and I made friends with the bartender at Good Olde Daze. This lady was the best.  She talked to us the whole time about Nascar and drunk patrons. They also had Budweiser on tap served in ice cold glasses.  The bartender even wrapped one up and let us take it as a souvenir. Just great service and cheap drinks all around at this neighborhood gem!
From this point on the pictures slow down but the fun didn't.  The next stop brought us to Red Circle Bar.  This place is a bar and bowling alley.  We decided to have another competition. Luckily for 3 people to play with shoe rental it was only $18 total. If you zoom in on the scoreboard you can see what type of shenanigans we were dealing with.  Also this place has  $1 circle jerks. Circle jerks are a shot that resembles the Devils menstrual cycle but tastes quite pleasant. Not much alcohol in them but hey it's only a dollar! 
The last stop of the evening and appropriately enough it was called the Last Stop Inn. No interior pics but our friend Clough stopped in after work and bought us all a dump truck full of beer.  A perfect way to end the night with good friends.
