all gonna mesh together and all going to like it,’” she said.
And mesh they have, in the small, welcoming space that has some-
thing for everyone. The BBH features open mic nights on Wednes-
days, Skee Ball tournaments on Tuesdays, live music three times a
week and several flat screen TVs for people to come and watch sports.
“We are a really good venue for live music, we are just small,” she
said. “We are big on UK games, so you can come in and watch the
games and actually hear the sound. That’s a big deal.”
She said the employees at BBH just try to come up with different
things to set themselves apart from other places in Madison County.
“If we see something we like, we just play with it,” she said.
It hasn’t always been fun and games for the bar, as tragedy struck
over a year ago when an electrical problem sparked a fire that de-
stroyed a good part of the bar and shut them down for five months.
“That was the longest five months of my life,” she said. “Financially
we took hit, our employees took a hit. We didn’t know if we would
reopen.”
