Hat Trick Pub

I dig this place.
The bowling alley it resides in is pretty dumpy. (For some odd reason O.C. has an inordinate amount of gross ass bowling alleys...WTH? I was surprised by how nice the bar is.....thought it was going to be nastier.
Anyway, I have never been there for karaoke, just Wings games.
Clean, cheap, big tv's, no frat aholes, no douche bags, great beer specials. ($2 Molsons.....NICE.)

The pinnacle of drunk, trashy karaoke. It's run down in the best way. Fantastic people watching, decent drinks and fried food. Our usual "end the night" bar for lasting memories, embarassing stories and overall debauchery. A Berkley insitution.

I guess I can agree that you won't run into people you know if you're from California. But this place had that I never left Berkley and now I'm old enough to go to this bar feeling.

There's a great karaoke system set up there, unfortunately there was way too much 90s/2000s country being sung. Enough so to make me want to stab myself in the ears and remember why I left Michigan in the first place. If you can deal with country on the karaoke I guess it's not that bad.

Reasons to return:

Super long shuffle board table. They give you the pucks for free and you can just keep score on the chalkboard. No need for quarters. Played for about 3 hours drinking $7 pitchers of bud light. This thing was like 25 feet long.

Karaoke and a good chance of seeing a 120 lbs black man preform the Who's, "Who are You?" This was seriously the best karaoke performance I have seen to date. Spot on.
