Making up for in booze what it lacks in Julia Robertses

Those with ambiguous names sometimes end up being the most endearing: just take Pat, who audiences eventually fell in love with after finally dropping speculation about whether "Sajak" was Polish or Romanian. For an ambiguously named sports bar hoping for similarly good Fortune: The Blue Banana.

With a name apparently pulled from the joint in Pretty Woman (and that makes you feel immature for your original assumptions), the Banana's outfitted with a cold-rolled steel bar and plum-colored leather bench seating, plus a bathroom with photos of Gere and Roberts, a small beer garden outside, and an indoor stage for live classic rock covers, though not Live classic rock covers, which'll make you wish Lightning Crashes, All Over you. Or just make you feel old. Standard bar food (like chicken ranch nachos, BBQ sliders, and aioli mayo fries) can be washed down by 20 bottles and 12 drafts, like Chimay Triple, Victory Golden Monkey, and the fruity Hennepin Saison Farmhouse -- though too many, and all you'll be milking is a sweet hangover. And if that's not fruity enough...not like that though, remember it's just a sports bar...they're also stocking four fishbowls full of fruit-infused liquors, including banana flavored rum, strawberry kiwi lime vodka, blueberry raspberry lemonade vodka, and a cherry bourbon mash, as opposed to a Cher/bourbon bash, which's how she convinced the casting director she was still hot enough for Burlesque.

'Cause they're actually sweet, they're also hooking up VIP "Blue Cards" that, when flashed at the bar, will result in "pretty aggressive" rotating/random specials, like 50% off your tab, or a free shot with every beer purchased -- just don't get overly aggressive, lest you wind up going home with a Pat. Seriously, he might be Romanian.
