What will you do tonight to mark this special occasion?

You punk ass bitches are all to young to remember "Dime Night" at the Alley Eye. A dollar would get you 10 glasses of drank, just like it should

Dooleys had dime night too. I think the glasses were 8 ounces

Did those dime nights ever get out of hand like it did at Cleveland?

What was the name of the place that had dime an inch night.  It was on Trowbridge.  You could bring your own mug or whatever you wanted, as long as you drank out of it.  A frisbee held nearly a pitcher of beer and when you were too drunk to drink out of it....it was time to go home.

Yeah, sorry for being born after you. I'm such a bitch for that.

In '69, I was 21, and I called the road my own: I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on.
