Years and years ago there was a bar on Route 22 in New Jersey named "The Office". Men could call their wives to tell them they were still at the office and would be late for dinner. Can anyone check the D.C. phone book to see if there indeed is a bar named "The Gym"? Altho it could be that Ted's favorite bartender works out there and he is just placing a take-out order!
If there is it's probably a gay bar.
I'm on it...
If you are hearing pumping dance music on the street, you must be near Results: The Gym on U Street, the hippest exercise spot in town for gay males, and many women, to flex their muscles.
I cannot find anyplace in Washington, DC named "The Gym" under "bar & grill restaurants." I haven't given up tho.
