  I guess it really depends on what you are looking for....our group was told to check this place out as it was the "hot spot" for the Knoxville scene.
  
  Sooo after walking 15 minutes away from where everyone else seemed to be going, we ended up at this place that was in the  middle of a neighborhood and pretty far removed from all the other bars and....people.
  
  Thursday night and the place was pretty dead. Sure, it was fun to be able to drink $3 PBR Tall Boys and talk with my buddies...but there were few folks dancing and little activity in general.
  
  And you have to order food from a place that isn't attached to the bar...kinda weird.

  I've been to Sassy's on several occasions and mostly I've had a good time.  Love that it's in the 4th and Gill neighborhood....can't imagine living next to this place.  It's a huge old Victorian home with three floors to party on...well until last night.  They've closed the third floor due to a fire-code.  Booooo!!!!  I loved the third floor.  It has several little nooks for getting away from the crowd for some drunken conversation which I love!  Also there's a balcony that overlooks the dance floor so people watching is perfect.  But like I sad no mas.  The crowd which usually feels very diverse and hip was sadly frat and I felt like we were on the strip.  Also the music which is usually cool and fun....was also lame.  I dunno what happened but in a town where fun dance clubs are few and far between, give Sassy's a try and see what the night shapes up to be.  I may have just hit it on a bad night.  But damn that fire-code!  Cheers to a Sassy's night!!

  When I found Sassy Anns for the first time, I didn't know what to expect. A friend had been to it years before and said it was pretty good, but I didn't want to get my hopes up. When we arrived, we thought it was pretty unique to just be an old Victorian-style house in a neighborhood.
  
  The layout is pretty nice as well. If I need a few more drinks before I bust out the dance moves, I'll go up and people watch on the upper deck until I have enough liquid courage to go to the dance floor. If you just want to chat or play pool, there is space on the bottom floor.
  
  PBR tall boys for $2 every Thursday and Saturday. Can't beat that. I find myself comparing every bar or dance club I go into now to Sassy's. I've lived in Seattle for 2 years now and nothing even comes close.
  
  Every time I go back home, Sassy Ann's in a must!

  Sassy's is a testament to what bars should be.
  Seriously~ It's better than any Los Angeles Bar!
  
  If I had the money I'd buy the place. Same staff for years, means the employees are happy= happy patrons!
  3 story Victorian, converted into a great party spot~ it's a house party / bar!
  Thursday nights: 80's night / $2 PBR ice cold Tall Boys - No Cover
  Thanks for the memories Steph!

  Hipster heaven/gaybar/I'm from the strip and just found this joint scene.  A Good time to get so drunk u will not remember dancing so hard and puking.  A good place to plan to not remember the night.

  A Thursday night at Sassy Ann's leads to the Stupids on Friday as the PBR and my particular favorite redbull and vodka seeps out of your skin. So yes of course Sassys gets five stars. Go there. Drink. Dance. Love Knoxville.
  
  There are a few people seem to think Sassys has been too busy or too mainstream of late and I would say to them "Hey asshole, I hope you get crushed on the dance floor." Yes its crowded and you are surrounded by sweaty drunk people, but that's what makes it great.

  I LOVE to go dancing at sassy ann's. I recently went dancing in Asheville for eighties night at Broadways, and it reminded me of sassy ann's, but not as fun. The atmosphere at sassy's is intimate...small-ish but open-an upstairs for people to gawk from. The whole place looks like a western saloon. They make good margaritas...i think they use purple sugar or something.
  Anyway dance night starts late but is a mixed crowd-gay, straight, and inbetween. They also have a lot of bands that you don't find playing at other places around town. (only because they're perhaps less mainstream)
  
  I'm always suprised to meet someone who hasn't been to Sassy's. But it's not uncommon. It is a little hard to find, but that filters out the campus crowd.
