Mar 10: Gettin' Ugly
I write this in honor of the fact that…IT’S FRIDAY!!

So I managed to make it out on the town this past weekend. Yes, that’s right, I braved the throngs of people that crowd Himmarshee and decided to go somewhere I had not yet been before: Coyote Ugly.

Ok, let me stop you right here. I know you’re probably thinking…how cliché. The youngster out of the University of Florida is talking about going out to the bars, clubs, yada yada. But let me just say in my defense that while this scene may not be for everybody, I know there are some of you out there who want to read on.

So onward we go…

Now, some of you may be familiar with the movie Coyote Ugly. For those of you who are, this place is pretty much like it, minus Piper Perabo. For those who aren’t, the scenario is pretty simple. And I can imagine that the average guy would be pretty pleased with the mental picture. So here’s the quick rundown: it’s a saloon atmosphere where an all-girl bartender crew dances on the bar (sometimes with synchronized moves), ear-shattering, bar-friendly music blares over the speakers, and drinks flow with ease.

As a female, however, I was skeptical. But really, if you’re easygoing and like to have a good time, you’ll have a good time. Maybe not up to par with the fellas, but fun nonetheless.

I will say this: the atmosphere is unique from other bars and that’s always an important selling factor. And the fact that you see it in a movie and then in your hometown is kind of cool, too. With other establishments in only a handful of cities including New York, Las Vegas, and Chicago, it’s nice to be able to say it’s also here in our backyard.

If nothing else, it’s at least worth checking out. With tons of alternatives lining the streets, it’s no harm, no foul if this place doesn’t tickle your fancy. You can always mosey (or stumble) on over to the next watering hole. But that’s what makes Fort Lauderdale so great, right? Variety, variety, variety…always plenty of places, not only Coyote Ugly, that give you the opportunity to…you guessed it…get ugly.
