While we did at least dress a bit more conservatively, remember this was back in the days when the drinking age was 18 (and some of us who will remain unnamed had excellent fake IDs from the age of 15. Gotta love FL and their "instant" licenses when you say "you" lost your license and your 18 yo friend gives you all the documents you need.......
). The amount of young drunk girls at the IHOP late at night was huge. In fact, I'm betting that's why my friend wanted to work there.
That was also when punk started being big in ATL (what was the name of the place in Buckhead - numbers - Club 341 or something?) so you had the colorful ones in there too.
Once I got a bit older and started working in the bars, THAT'S when I saw the real fun things as our night started at 2AM. Steak and Egg - one right ITP on Roswell and another just a bit north from the IHOP in Sandy Springs - were also fun. There's also the IHOP next to the Beer Mug and there was another one somewhere near the Slimelight and Confetti because I remember stopping there too. And of course, the Beef Cellar but that usually had a wee bit higher classed drunks in it
Sometimes I wonder how I survived those days.
