  I felt right at home here. Friendly people, cold beer and karaoke. This my yelp friends is a dive bar, the best kind of bar in my opinion. There were a couple pool tables, the the place is a bit small, but there was room to dance. The ladies restroom was clean and well stocked. The beer selection was not impressive, but they had my fave Stella Artois. The ventilation system lack and the smoke was a bit stagnant, but noting out of the ordinary for a local gem like this and other hometown dive bars. The music the DJ played was everything to old country, rock and of all things soldier boy's "Crank Dat" lol.
  
  I recommend, and when in Norman I will visit again.

  After eyeing this bar for the last four years I have lived in Norman, I finally made it in and it was everything I had hoped it would be. I love a good dive bar and this was one of the best.
  
  First of all, there is a huge, old-school Budweiser mural with clydesdales running through a stream. Check. Then there is a working jukebox with a GREAT selection of songs at a pretty good price (that I can't seem to remember for reasons unknown....). Check. There is also a shuffleboard table and scoreboard, that I admit have seen better days, but it still all works. Get over yourself and play a game or two! Pool tables. Darts. So, check check check for plenty of bar Olympics.
  
  It is a smoking bar, but there aren't an overwhelming number of regulars &/or heavy smokers and it seems that they keep the door open when the weather is nice so if that's an issue, you shouldn't be bothered. I'm pretty sensitive to cigarettes and I was fine.
  
  There are TVs at the bar showing sports. This bar is BEER and CASH ONLY, but you can get a tall boy of PBR for $2 so you don't have to take a lot of cash out for some drinks here. Open all week in the evenings. Crazy wagon wheel tables. Be sweet to the bartenders and regulars, they may seem a bit iffy about you at first, but if you are respectful and just have a good time, they accept you pretty quickly and all will be well. It's wonderful. You will be in dive bar heaven.
