I've seen it and it was filmed in the Hideaway. Also, that country store where they dealt is at the corner of Ironworks and Newtown (I think -- maybe lemmons mill). Amazing how many people you'll recognize in that film if you spent some time in Lex bars and theaters.

I'll show off my dorkyness again here 100 proof http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0124268/

I've lived near the Hidaway for almost 7 years, counting the 4 at Transyland, and every time I've gone by it, it just seems a little too shady for me. Plus I hate smokey bars and that screams smokey bars.

that little bar seems to have some neighborhood regulars, and it is a tough little neighborhood. Another tough little bar is one across the Continental, its the kinda place you go to drink. no smiling, no conversation, just a couple of old men hunched over their sour mash not interested in making any new friends.

and does anyone remember the Shack on National Avenue? It finally closed down after a nephew and a cousin brutally kicked their uncle to death on the street in front. I always had a good time there, though. I think it reopened (and closed again) as the Bullseye on Winchester...

maybe I shouldnt tell my bar history so clearly

Never been to the shack, but I do know a guy that used to hang there. From what I know it was a bad biker bar that was closed once cause people were routinely shooting glocks inside. A slug got through the cinder blocks and flew outside so the cops came.

I've been working hard at avoiding all things Continental since I was in college. Now that's a scary crowd with lots of potential for disaster.

Maybe I've been (drinking) in this town too long.

Well this is kinda of the topic, but for the hideaway: is there sport or is it a traddy crag?
