    Had to make a trip to Truckin' America today in Maryland City and notice that the Starting Gate liquor store has been demolished and the sign says that it will soon be a Royal Farms.

    Many a party back in the day were started with a trip to the Gate.



    And in other news, I almost drove past the TNA. Was looking for that dumpy double wide and crappy garage. All brand new showroom and garage, very nice.

    Buh bye. Now maybe they’ll bulldoze the crack motel across the street and make that a Wawa.

    Saw that. It was only a matter of time, always wanted to stick my nose in there to see what it was all about. Oh well.

    It’s being reinvented across the street at the old Virgo station. They just got approved for the liquor license. Same owners / same name.

    Interesting but does it take the "dank" with it? We want the dank.

    Seriously don't really know but its hard to move a bar and keep the same feel.

    Once upon a decade , took a friend there for his birthday . At 0001 bought him a shot of Jack Daniels .

    Not only was the Starting Gate a legendary dive bar , but it was just over the County Line for Sunday Sales of hard liquor .
