Lucky's Sports Tavern

Blackout and Yellow

Due to the recent demise of 19 South this will be the first bar shufflers encounter on the world famous Court Street. Pour out a little liquor from your Rum & Coke liquor pitcher here in South's memory every Wednesday night. If you're more in for an adventure on the other hand ask the bartender to make you and your friends a Lunchbox. This is sort of an alcohol Neapolitan which usually consists of beer mixed with orange juice and a shot of Amaretto and 151.

If you're from out of state however, be prepared to show multiple forms of i.d. at the door. The bouncers tend to be very inquisitive. A friend of mine from New York once had to show 7 forms of i.d. just to get in one time. Also, Lucky's has a bit of a reputation as being the local Steelers bar so Browns and Bengals fans will hate it and boycott going here out of pure spite for the Steel Curtain. Expect to hear Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow" played more times than humanly possible. I however, being a Packers fan, feel a sense of smug satisfaction when I'm in Lucky's after the Pack defeated the Steelers in the Super Bowl this past winter. Overall, unless you're a Steelers fan, Lucky's is just your average sports bar but is worth popping in every once and a while...unless you're wearing an Ochocinco jersey.

People who would probably drink here:
Hines Ward, Wiz Khalifa, Christina Aguilera, Sidney Crosby, Snoop Dogg/Lion, January Jones, Jeff Goldblum, John Grisham, Hunter S Thompson

What to order:

Liquor pitcher on Wednesdays.  Lunchbox any other time.
