Eight Seconds

You shouldn't be allowed to sell all you can drink beer for $9... wait, let me correct that... I shouldn't be allowed to get all I can drink beer for $9. Good drinks, pretty girls, great times.

I suppose I can only comment on my experiences here at The Fest but... that wouldn't do anyone on another other weekend any good when considering if Eight Seconds is the place for them.

This is a country bar, as evidenced by the name. You know, hold onto the bull for :08. You didn't know that? Come on. OK, me neither. I had to ask.

All this place is missing is a mechanical bull. The rest of it is country as it gets, including the free line dancing lessons that are apparently offered at the beginning of every night to the railings around the dance floor reminiscent of a farm. Put on your shit kickin' boots and Wranglers and get on down to the hee-haw party. Or whatever they call this sort of thing.

Interesting.

The flyer said, "Corn Hole, Beer Pong, Line Dancing, Live Country DJ*..."

I can tell you right now that I would never step foot in here on a night that wasn't The Fest. Country bars just aren't my thing. At all. Ever. Neither is a wall of ridiculous shot concoctions.

As a venue, though, it was mediocre. Acoustic sounds way better than thrashier stuff. There are a bunch of obstructions around the place, but I guess the balcony makes up for it? Oh wait, there are obstructions up there, too.

I think I counted four bars, which makes me wonder just how many people they cram in here because the place doesn't seem big enough to justify it.

This has to be a country-loving, college kid's wet dream.
