There were no glasses of beer back in the day at Luekenbach and I well remember that old wood burning stove. Is the tall “airmail “ mailbox still out in front?

The most remarkable thing about the place - at least to me - was the peacefulness of it. I was something of an expert on Texas beer joints back then and fistfights were routine, particularly at closing time. Bikers, Cowboys, Bankers, and Hippies all present at the same time and I never heard a cross word.


Never holler whoa or look back in a tight place
