damn straight!

I went last year. Holy shiat that's a lot of drunk and crazy all in one place. Too busy moving this weekend, though. :(

Mullets are coming back into style.

Why doesn't Florida break off and fall into the Gulf of Mexico?

Because Alabama sucks.

All hope is lost.

happens every year, not a big thing.

Hooray for the Florabama! This is the best reason to go to Gulf Shores -- the loosest part of Alabama!

Do they still have the bras as decor as in the old days? It used to be de rigeur for southern girls to leave their bras in the Florabama.

Amid a sea of sunburned beer drinkers and women wearing little more than tanning lotion on the beach behind the Flora-Bama

Sounds ideal for a Fark party

Alabama has enough mullets, both kinds.

It's been over a year since I've cut my hair. If/when I do, it will be the sweetest mullet you've seen.

/maybe a dangly cross earing to boot

Finally somebody found a use for mullet besides dog food

Let's all hear it for the Redneck Riviera

Yea Haw!!!!!

You're implying mullets ever were in style?

What I haven't seen on Fark is a good mullet thread. I think it's about time we have one.

Can't wait to go there

/July 11!

During my stint in Nuke power, I worked the screenhouse quite a few times. Short of it, you sometimes get lamprey eels up in the screens and baskets, and apparently before the rules became very staunch, the operators used to fling the lamprey eels at each other, or try to catapult them via shovel over the screenhouse itself.

Supposedly, they nearly took out a few security guards that were standing guard on top of the screenhouse.

/death by lamprey eel
//yeah, they aren't allowed to do that anymore
/I was glad

I didn't even have to read the story to know it was the Flora-Bama. The place is like a time machine.

I hear he mullet toss is a good time to pick up girls and whatnot, but the past couple of times I went to the Floribama, it was depressing! The place is like a monument to lost youth. Tons of 35-55 year old women dressing like they're in their 20s hoping some guy will pick them up. However, the drinks are good, and it is right across the street from the WaHo...

And yeah, they still have bras hanging from the ceiling in the main dance floor area.

Love that place.

Hahaa! That's awesome! I've been in that bar - about 12 years ago. Cool ass dive beach bar!

The FloraBama lounge was knocked on its ass when all those hurricanes hit in 2005. They had to rebuild.

I love that place!

Didn't they slap anybody with the fish first? /Not obscure.

I need to revisit.

Say anything you like to try and justify that haircut ...

So, is the Florida tag busy throwing fish too?

I believe Jimmy Buffet used the Florabama as his inspiration for this song

No, it's not a Rick Roll

Haven't been to the new Flora Bama since Hurricane Ivan, but I think it was in a Tim Dorsey novel that the old one was described best as having been "hammered together by enemies of the owner." I think the last time I was there I got so liquored up and pissed off because the band didn't know a song, that I sung along the rest of the evening replacing lyrics with "ya'll suck balls!."

They already had plenty of mullet (the hairstyle, not the fish) in Alabama.

My dad grew his hair out in a mullet last year then had me cut it off and donate it to locks of love. Good cause? I still convinced him that doing that once was more than enough and he needed to keep it short.

/Approves

Mullet wearing mullet flingers.

Heh, I like Croom in the background there.

I loooooove me some smoked mullet! Think I will have some tomorrow for lunch! Yummy!

Florida has a whole region just for Panhandlers?

That's a darn shame.
