  As a LIFE'r of the gay scene, this place has really gone down hill after the "remodeling."  Am I the only one that can smell the odor of POOP POOH in the basement!?!?!?!  If you have a bad case of the farts, just roll down the steps and let'r rip. Just plan a trip out of town and save your cash.  You can have a better night at one of the other gay bars in the 'burg.

  I was here back in November of 2012.  There was a private party taking place on the 3rd street entrance so we weren't able to enjoy the club completely.
  
  Being limited on what Harrisburg has to offer the 'LGBT' community, we found the rear entrance to the club which lead us to the basement.  Good thing was, there was no cover... bad news - everyone knows about the basement 'club'.
  
  Like sardines in a can you're cramped in what is probably just a sit down bar area. They try to accommodate those who like to dance with a make shift 'stage'; which s nothing more than three 8'wide X 3'deep platforms at the end of the bar and a pathetic sound system that wouldn't work for most newer cars on the road today.  The music choices were awful (that night).  Nothing current and whoever was in charge of the music kept putting on 'slow - hips holding' music'...  really?  We're gay - not dead.
  
  The drinks were light and the expensive and their only saving grace was the nearly nude bar-tending staff; but be careful it's hit or miss on the 'hottie scale'.
  
  Harrisburg is a little behind the times - they have no restrictions on smoking in bars which leads to suffocation and ruined jeans.  Be careful trying to navigate the crowd trying to escape, as people are cruising you they may just burn you with their cigarettes.

  All gay jokes aside... you have to enter Stallions from the rear (not from 3rd St.)

  The building that Stallions is in.. well its quite broken down. The club itself is pretty dingy really, the staff isn't really that friendly and over all its a back alley club (literally).  Friendlier crowd then anything on Second Street is the best thing it has going for it really.

  If my Thanksgiving weekend Stallions experience was a movie, it would be summarized in TV Guide like this: "Big-city gay meet small-city gay, hilarity ensues."
  
  After paying 50 cents per item at the coat check, Ben, Joshua and I approached the bar at Stallions in our tight jeans and tighter T-shirts like the boy-band tour bus had just broken down on 3rd Street and we needed a pay phone. Within literally 45 seconds we had drinks bought for us, a receiving line of introductions, after-hours parties being planned, and endless rounds of answering "What are you guys DOING here?" This may be as close to celebrity as I ever get.
  
  With free parking, the downstairs video/pool bar, spacious floor upstairs with cheesy top-40 dance (my favorite), and very friendly crowd, Stallions could be an annual tradition for us.
  
  Can't wait until smoking is banned in bars in PA -- yuck! Be prepared to smell.
