The Bar: Located in a strip mall next door to a massage parlor and a liquor store. Upon arrival you suddenly want a pencil and a pad, cause this place is sketchy. Upon entering the front door, the hallway is loaded with pictures of crazy nights of the past, including plenty of nudity. Once inside, there is a long L-shape bar seating about 20 people, some scattered tables, and a long bench seat on the west wall. In the rear of the bar there are two well maintained pool tables with straight sticks (which is uncommon for a dive).
The Crowd: Tonight's crowd was a flash back from the past. The reason this bar was chosen was a friend of mine was in town from Idaho and this was the local stomping ground. Just about everyone in the bar was an old friend. The rest of the patrons consisted of a couple of old men and a handful of college kids, and one crazy old dude with a neon blue star tattoo under his left eye, pretty sure he lost some sort of bet with that one.
Service: With one bartender on duty service was a bit slow, but drinks were heavy, so it made up for the wait.
Prices: $8.50 Domestic Pitchers, $6 Shots of Fireball, $3.50 Domestic Bottles. No PBR though. Entertainment: 2 pool tables, 6 TV's, Internet Jukebox, 2 arcade games.
Restroom: Fuckin gross. Stinks like piss. Someone reported that the toilet tank lid in the women's restroom is made from tin foil.
Closing statement: Before coming to this bar many people mentioned it was a crap. I disagree. I had a great time and could hardly walk after closing my $90 tab. I plan a return visit in the near future. 

We rate TJ's a 3 out of 5.
