17 bars, six games of pool, and an unknowable number of Miller Lites later writer Drew Schwartz (benzdaddy666) tracked down the diviest of Vegas dives. But beyond that, he found a side of the city you won’t find in a travel brochure.⁠
⁠
He writes: “The more derelict a bar is, the more delightful it is to discover that underneath its warped floorboards and yellowing wallpaper lies something irrefutably good; something almost sacred. A truly great dive is a hotbed of degeneracy. But for its regulars, it is also a sanctuary. It’s where they mourn their losses and celebrate their successes; where they are adored for their idiosyncrasies and forgiven for their indiscretions. It’s where they can be fully and unflinchingly themselves.” Couldn't agree more. ⁠
