5/5 Bob R. 1 year ago on Google
Yesterday
[10-8-2022],
I
briefly
visited
Bob's
Bar
[also
known
as
"The
Cultural
Hub
of
the
Midwest"]
at
4961
N.
High
St.
immediately
south
of
the
Graceland
Shopping
Center.
Since
my
name
is
Bob,
I
have
wanted
to
visit
Bob's
Bar
ever
since
first
having
learned
about
that
bar.
I
had
not
had
the
opportunity
until
yesterday
to
visit
Bob's
Bar
because
I
am
usually
riding
past
there
(1.)
in
a
car
[with
someone
else
driving]
or
(2.)
on
a
#2
[or
#102]
COTA
bus
[with
someone
else
driving].
Neither
of
those
situations
has
ever
provided
the
best
opportunity
for
me
to
visit
there.
Yesterday
had
been
a
great
time
for
me
to
visit
Bob's
Bar
because
I
had
been
walking
south
from
the
Graceland
Shopping
Center,
with
sufficient
time
to
briefly
visit
Bob's
Bar,
while
on
my
way
to
an
event
at
Mozart's
Cafe
[five
blocks
to
the
south].
I
spent
only
eight
minutes
at
Bob's
Bar
yesterday
but
very
much
enjoyed
my
brief
visit.
I
first
took
several
photographs
of
the
illuminated
"1960s-style"
"BOB'S
BAR"
sign
above
the
front
door
and
then
entered
the
building.
I
told
the
woman
behind
the
bar
that
my
name
is
Bob
[to
explain
why
I
had
wanted
to
visit
there].
I
told
her
that
I
would
be
taking
a
few
photographs
for
Google
Maps;
I
then
walked
around
for
the
next
several
minutes
and
took
several
photographs.
My
practice,
whenever
I
am
taking
photographs
for
Google
Maps,
is
to
include
as
few
people
as
possible
in
those
photographs.
It
would
have
been
great
to
have
taken
a
photograph
of
a
small
group
of
people
playing
darts
though
I
chose
not
to
do
so.
I
did
take
a
photograph
of
a
not-being-used-at-the-time
pool
table
because
no
people
had
been
nearby.
I
made
sure
to
take
a
photograph
of
the
huge
"BOB'S
BAR"
sign
that
had
been
painted
[using
two-foot-tall
capital
letters]
on
the
interior
wall
of
Bob's
Bar
immediately
inside
of
the
front
entrance;
I
also
took
a
photograph
of
the
wall
behind
the
bar
that
includes
an
"Elvis-Presley-themed"
neon
sign.
If
you
are
in
the
vicinity
of
the
Graceland
Shopping
Center
and
you
are
looking
for
a
small
neighborhood
bar,
I
recommend
that
you
check
out
Bob's
Bar.
