Those of you who have been following my blog may recall how early in my quest, mid-January actually, I ran into the owner of Angry Wade's, Wade Hagenbart, across the street from his place at the Zombie Hut. We got to talking and when he found out what I was up to he said if I actually did manage to visit 1000 bars he would treat me to 100 drinks at his bar. Just what Bar Man needed, a bit more motivation. Well, I did it and Wade showed up at Pioneer and presented me with my prize.

I just want to say Thanks Wade, you were a true sport and you can expect to see quite a bit of me this year. Anyone interested in bumping into me might just be able to find me at Angry Wade's at 222 Smith Street in Brooklyn. Even if I am not there you can enjoy the great bar, nice fireplace, and pool table in the back.

Yeah, do some damage to both Wade and me. Nothing like having 100 free drinks staring you in the face after hitting 1000 bars.
Looking forward to visiting your Tiki bar, I'll whip you up a dynamite Mai Tai and maybe a pitcher of Zombies.
Angry Wade sounds like a hell of a guy.
By all means check back. Whenever I hit a new or interesting spot I will post about it.
Congratulations! Saw you on the TV news and everything. My fiance was like, "Hey, isn't the guy you were talking about?" and I replied indeed it was the Bar Man. Please do keep up the blog, even if only for occasional bar reviews and histroy/trivia lesson. Best wishes and Happy New Year!
Bar Man you look better than when you started your journey! Sweet beer be with you! JWW
