Baxter Lomax finally got the courage to check out the Red Ivy bar in Chicago's Wrigleyville. This beautiful spacious bar was on the chopping block some years ago as greedy developers wanted to raze some old bar buildings . in its place the hoped to put up a corporate hotel and transform by giving this great walkable community. Suburban feel. I am glad to say that these plans fell through as funding for this project that the stupid Ricketts family hoped to accomplish for the Chicago Cubs. The cubs are special because of their neighborhood. It is a unique urban environment that the young love to flock whether they are Cub fans or not. You never see old people in this community as few are motivated enough to get off their couch and far from their televisions. A neighborhood like this has a bit more crime that boring suburbia because of these reasons.
One crime though freaked out are colleague at the Left Shark. As a bartender at the Itasca Inn he has had to dealt with certain elements of abuse at this dive bar on Irving Park Road. Nothing though has ever made national Huffington post news though what happened one night in the bathroom T the Red Ivy. A drugged out youngster named Greg Greaves Took a beer bottle and smashed it on the head of another patron taking a wizz and watching the screen in the bathroom. He then processed to slice up the person pissing and the reason was he went crazy on some drug mixed with hard shots. Needles to say this crime caused concern and stress for old Baxter and he didn't show up to his bar tending job for a week. Baxter though confronted his fears and actually stopped in a few bars in Wrigleyville this week including the dreaded Red Ivy. The push Baxter almost backed out of it walking in a few yards and then pretending he forgot Romney and then an ID. He eventually manned up to his nightmare bar scenarios and even took a piss in the dreaded Red Ivy men's bathroom. The way the fucker acts perhaps he should consider the other Alternative permanently whenever he goes out.
He came back from his pisses all drunk out ranting how stupid it is for any bar to have a TV screen in the bathroom and wondered if this was the reason that. Did his brutal behind the back unprovoked attack. Whatever the cause this fact should not diminish what a great smashes looking bar the Red Ivy is in the heart of Wrigleyville and that this bar needs to be patronized among people to keep youthful places happening and not turn into Lyons.
