The year was 1977. We were very young and in a downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota un-named Gay bar. There was a big motorcycle convention in town. Late one night some bikers got very drunk and decided to teach the fags a lesson. About 8 of them stumbled into the Gay bar with chains just a swinging and yelling. Their big mistake was that this was a hardcore Gay Leather bar!!! Of course, the gays fought back. With in minutes the bikers were on the floor. Then they took the bikers, boots, jeans and underwear off. Then tossed them back onto Hennepin Ave. naked. They never came back. I wonder what story they told the other bikers???

You Just Can Not Make This Up
I was very lucky to Barend with one of the most beautiful real women in Ybor City, who was blessed with rather large chest. Not only beautiful but very flighty and fun. One day there were 2 straight guys, from some small town up north, giving us a hard time. Finally, she had enough and said “OK, just stop it guys or do we have to pull out our dicks and see who’s is the biggest? I’m ready and I know I will win!” They looked at me and I said “That’s why we call HIM Daddy” They guys looked like dear in headlight. Sat down ad didn’t give us anymore trouble. LMAO

You Just Can Not Make This Up
In the bar business you either have Great bar backs or the opposite. I was working in a very Gay Friendly Club. The new bar back asked me what my cologne was. I told him and he said “That’s what I thought. My Dad wears that.” LMAO RUDE… I said Great then you can call me Daddy. He had a I don’t understand look on his face and didn’t come back the next day. LMAO
