This Week for Happy Hour: The Juice is Loose!

That’s right, baby.  The Juice is loose!  And no, I’m not talking about that weird thing that your last sexual partner used to scream during climax.  I’m talking about June 17th, 1994: O.J. Simpson leads the Los Angeles Police on a scenic tour of the local highways and byways from behind the windshield of the famed White Ford Bronco.  As luck would have it, before he was taken into custody he was able to make a quick stop at Glamour Shots for this portrait:

The Juice was not loose.

They do great work at that place.  Wonderful attention to detail.

Anyhow, it’s been 17 years since that fateful day.  And Rhino Bar is having a special O.J. shots and drinks Happy Hour to commemorate the occasion.  Screwdrivers (OJ-vodkas) and tic-tacs (orange vodka-red bull shots) are two-for-one, on top of the already half-price Happy Hour special.  In fact, for this weekend only, screwdrivers will be strictly referred to as Nordbergs (Police Squad/Naked Gun, anyone?) and tic-tacs will be renamed Lovelocks (Lovelock Correctional Center is the prison where the Juice is currently serving a 9 year sentence for kidnapping and armed robbery).

Oh, how the mighty do fall... Except for Frank Drebin.  That Frank Drebin was one sexy beast.  Eat your heart out Officer J. Dangle.

Anyway, order a “Nordberg” or a “Lovelock” by name and your first one is on the house.  Show up in a pair of tight gloves or wearing a WFB t-shirt, and may God have mercy on your soul, because the bartenders won't.  At the very least, when you get drunk you can take great satisfaction in uttering to no one in particular: "The Juice is loose!"

See you there!
