This is a private club like most bars in the core of KCK.   Of the private bars in KCK that have let me in to drink, this was the hardest one for my friends and I to get into.

When we couldn't produce membership cards, we asked the bartender how to get one.   "It's my first day, the owner hasn't told me how that works yet," said the bartender.  

I might have believed that, had I not already heard that exact same line at about half a dozen other bars already that day.

We tossed out some BS about having been there a few times in the past and never had a problem before, but she just wasn't buying it.

Thankfully, a helpful customer seated at the bar said, "I remember them, they used to come in here all the time.   They're cool," as he gave us a wink.

We bought that guy a couple of drinks to show our gratitude.

As for the bar, well, for all the trouble it really wasn't all that memorable.   A basic neighborhood dive with a pool table, not a whole lot in the way of decor.   It was an ok place to hang out, but nothing that I'd go through all that hassle to see again.
