An Idaho Bar has just thrown down the gauntlet in the Culture War.
It has declared June “Heterosexual Awesomeness Month” and is giving straight men free beers and discounts.
“Come join us all month to celebrate heterosexuals, for without them, none of us would be here!” Old State Saloon in the city of Eagle wrote in a Facebook post announcing a month of festivities and drink specials.Every Monday in June will be “Hetero Male Monday,” with a free draft beer given to “any heterosexual male dressed like a heterosexual male,” the bar said.The bar even put out a call seeking a “professional” judge qualified “to determine if men’s chosen clothing is officially heterosexual,” offering $15 per hour plus free beer as compensation to anyone who “think[s] you have what it takes to determine straight threads.”Wednesdays will be for couples, where “each heterosexual couple” will receive 15% off their bill.
It’s hard to know exactly the motive behind the move, as there are so many. The woke antics of the Bud Light debacle? The parade of cross-dressing crazy in the Biden Administration? The rotten Trump verdict?
The local rag newspaper tried to smear the novel promotion in a snide article.
The Idaho Statesman, Boise’s daily newspaper, put out a column on Friday poking fun at the controversial local watering hole and skewering its owner, Mark Fitzpatrick, for disrespecting Pride Month.’How exactly does a customer dress like a heterosexual male? Wear one of those “The Only Thing I Like More Than Beer Is Twins” shirts? Or the one that reads, “Cool Babe Now Go Make Me a Sandwich”?’ columnist Michael Deeds wrote.Fitzpatrick describes himself as ‘a Christian, conservative, Constitution supporter, retired police officer, and family man’ on his Zillow listing agent profile.In response to the Idaho Statesman piece, Fitzpatrick said Deeds didn’t ‘have the courage’ to contact him for an interview.The bar also posted again on Saturday, saying it wouldn’t back down….The post added that the bar would be doing all day happy hour prices for straight females on Thursdays, and that T-shirts commemorating heterosexuals would be coming soon.
However, I suspect the bar will be swamped with new customers.
As an extra bonus for some of our Legal Insurrection fans, the Old State Saloon Facebook page also indicates they take cryptocurrency.
