Here it is, folks. Months of preparation and sweat and voting have brought us to this point. Many a bar fan may have asked him or herself why the voting went this or that way. But no matter what you may think, or who you love, this is the way history is made– never scripted.
Please imagine that the guy from “Inside the NFL” was reading that last paragraph.
After Thursday’s shocking upset, where the beloved Tune Inn was unseated by fan-favorite The Dubliner while The Pug handily beat the Queen Vic, it has come to this. Capitol Hill: MEET YOUR FINAL FOAM-DOWN CONTENDERS!
The Pug Vs. The Dubliner
What can be said about this match? The Pug, delightful cheeseballed bastion of late-night drinking, comes face-to-face with amiable, Irish-music-playing, centrally-located bastion of Shepherd’s pie. This will be a brutal and bloody fight, no doubt, and clearly, we all will need a Happy Hour after this battle is done to celebrate it. Maybe we could have a THIH Happy Hour at the winning bar? Oooh! (Hey, winning bar! Email me!)
Okay bar fans: you have FORTY-EIGHT HOURS to pick Capitol Hill’s favorite bar. You know you would rather support your favorite bar and tell your friends to do the same than finish paying your taxes. And after the day is done, who will take you into its comforting bosom and tell you everything will be alright? It’s like voting for a surrogate parent, if your surrogate parent had awesome food specials and didn’t make terrible faces when you drank in excess.
Now, go vote!!!
