Scooter’s 440th bar, first visited in 2008.

Big John's Corner Bar, Independence

A very tiny, long-standing institution in the heart of downtown Independence. Since this was my first visit we were entitled to their free Virgin Shots… other than the alcohol-infused cherry to pop the ingredients remain a mystery.

The restrooms here were essentially closets, and this is the 4th bar I’ve been to where the sink is outside the restrooms. So everyone knows if you washed your hands!
