You brought a tear to my eye.
Do you remember "The Wind Mill" on North Side Drive.
You go in durning the day and it was so dark it was 15 minutes before you could see?

I'm 45. Bars on Northside?
I remember BJs and later The Rathskellar over near Northside and Delta Drive. Was it near there or over closer to the Power Plant or I-55/North State?
When I went juking, we usually went to Big Mikes or the Dutch Bar or if feeling Preppie, then Poets or later Fridays....and the resevoir after midnight.
For black jukejoints...The Kings Lounge on Fortification near Farish st...they would serve a 14 year old and had great blues and black jump and shout stuff and they treated snotty nosed white boys fine....all money is green you know.
I left out foot long hotdogs at the Redwood Inn on Terry road near Battelfield park....and what a gun collection that guy had!!..and the old Hullabaloo dance club from the 60s behind the Alamo Inn across 80.
And all the bootleggers across the river from Dennerys on the old Pearl river bridge in Flowood. I'd ride over with my grandpa or dad when MS was dry (sans beer) and you'd drive to the front and pay your money and tell em what you wanted and drive to the back and they'd place the whiskey (for egg nog ...seriously) in the crook of the tree..lol
And all the bordellos north off of Delta Drive in the county ...The White House and Rocky's....whew..
