Coyote Ugly

[HSWriter]

Now, I have owned this movie since the moment it was released on DVD, and I have watched it over and over (in a dimly lit room, ) I think it is an awesome movie. I was wondering if anyone else thought so...


Oh, and if you saw it.. which one of the fine ladies was your favorite.. Personally, I like Cammi, the "Russian Tease".. damn...

 

[Naked Hunny]

YAY!!

Loved the movie. And as far as I know. There is actually a Coyote Ugly bar in NY somewhere. I'm certain Sparky or DCL can Verify that.

Either way. I wanna find it!!!!

Now I wanna a scots on the rock and a bud to chase it with....Damn

 

[Starfish]

Would a person who hates bars still like this movie?

I haven't bothered to see this movie, because I hate bars, unless a really good band is playing in one. I can't drink, cause it makes me very ill.
So, I figured it would not be interesting to me.
Could someone tell me a little about it? Does it entail more than just mass alcohol consumption.

 

[Xander]

Oh G.R

Coyote Ugly is so much more than just the bar. yes I'd say you'll enjoy it. Well if you enjoy having a good time, and lots of fun. Then you will.
If you like catchy tunes, and good music, Intrigue, and the everlasting love story. Then yes.

Go see it

 

[Starfish]

Thanks Xander!

I just may have to see it now. I hate when commercials give the wrong impression about movies, or at least that is what I concluded from the commercials last year.
Lately, I haven't wanted to see any movies, unless they star my favorite actor, Ewan McGregor, but I may make this an exception.

How do you know he is "Good"?
Is there something you're not telling us, Xander?

 

[Xander]

His wife told me in bed.......

 

[Starfish]

I was hoping she was premiscuous<sp>, at least he'd be justified in giving in to my seduction. <all hot and bothered,wink>
Anyway, I'll let ya'll know what I think after I see the film!

[FeatherLight]

Don't kill me or anything, but I haven't seen it YET. My friend swears by it, but... I don't know. I'm more of a "kick-'em-ass" type movie. Explosions, gun-fights... grrr, baby, grrr!

 

[Ksss]

I saw it, thought it was great...but have to thank my daughter for bringing it home...I don't think it would have been one of the videos I would have selected.

There is a bar in NY named COYOTE UGLY but that is not the one which was the topic of the movie. The bar you seek is called HOOFERS & HEIFERS or vice versa.

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

Yep, been there - done that.......

About 20 times!!!! Hell I've lost track how many times I've been to that bar - but I just saw the movie for the first time last night with the Shebabe.

Here's the skinny, straight from New Yawk.

The movie, even though entitled Coyote Ugly, and even though there is a bar called Coyote Ugle - is actually based on the first, original bar in New York (and probably the world) called Hoggs & Heffers.

Now, how do I know this? Cause, one of the first places I read about, one of the first places I went to - was Hoggs and Heffers.

The story of Hoggs and Heffers is this:

It's in an old, rather small, corner store, now outfitted as a bar - I think it's 14th and some other street down in the heart of the meat packing district on the lower West Side of Manhattan. (If you wanna go - you don't need to know the address - most all cabbies know exactly where it is.) The meat packing district at night is "movie fucking scary." I mean the first time I went down there - I didn't know, how could I know? I arranged "to meet" the Shebabe down there!!! And we got a little turned around and lost from each other - man you should have heard the cell phone conversation - she thought she was litterally in hell. It's that dark and nasty. Perfect for shooting gang fight scenes and shit like that. And the only thing open on the block - because everything else is a meat distribution business (they don't call it the meat packing district for nothing) and shut down for the night - is Hoggs & Heffers.

Yes there is a huge fucking bouncer at the door. (I once kicked the headlight out on a cab who had just ran into the Shebabe and knocked her down - the H & H bouncer saw me do that and would not let me in - shit I was pissed.) Anyway - you really don't want to fuck around down there - too many places to hide a body.

The inside is pretty much like the movie set protrays - except dimmer, and there's a lot more bras above the bar. The first time I went in there - both mens and womens toilets were overflowing all the way out onto the dance floor. There's a pay pool table in the back at the end of the bar - and I've shot pool and beat one of the bar maids. And she had a fancy custome three piece stick too.

They don't have a mic hooked into the sound system - they can control the volume and they do - all the time use bullhorns. If you don't know what the fuck yer doing you will feel the wrath of a bar maid. I had a $70 tie, cut with siccors, off my neck - no ties alloud - but she kissed me after she cut it off.

Another thing - tthat dude dancing on the bar - nope, can virtually never happen! No guys on the bar. Only one ever has been allowed - here's the scoop: Paul McCartney comes in a couple of years ago - he's in for the Grammies and he's between the death of his wife and this one-legged model he's seeing now. He's looking for a good time and like everybody in the know - he heads down to H & H. But he's cool ya know - hanin' in the shadows - and get this - not drinking - a big fucking no-no. But, but, but - one of the bar maids spots'im. She pulls out her bull horn. She politely chides him into doing a shot or two, everybody cheers her and Paul - then she gets bolder and makes this announcement, "We never, ever let any swingin" dick, male mother-fucker (oh yes by the way - they cuss like cunts on fire there, another thing the movie tones down) dance on our bar, but (and get this) - for this one Knight only - (get it Knight/sir McCartney?) we will make an exception. The juke box starts blastin' the opening of Devil Goes Down to Georgia - (yes that's one of the favorites that the girls glog to) - but Paul doesn't want to get up there and dance. The music is cut - silence - the bull horn blares again - "You mean to fucking tell me, that you can come to my home town and perform for seventy thousand people at Shea Stadium and you fucking can't get up and dance on my bar!?!" I mean she's right in his ear with the horn. Everybody cheers this challenge - the music starts,Paul gets up and dances - rips off his shirt, nails a couple of more shots - and gets his picture took by a papparazi - the next day it runs world wide in all the tabloids.

Anyway - where was I? The place exists because of this one dude. I forget his name. He was this guy who grew up a very sickly kid - all kinds of shit wrong with him - I forget what. His mind-set was not healthy. By the he hits his teens - he figures he's very lucky to still be alive - and he firgures that every day he remains alive - he's cheating death. So - he fucking parties and he parties out wild too. But he doesn't die. Something like his mother or grandmother dies and leaves him a very nice chunk of change. So, go figure - he figures that since he's not got much more time alive and he going to continue to party - he'll "create his own perfect party enviornment." Now he's a biker and sky diver and a hunter and a big-game fisherman and all that kinda shit - and the inheritence, well it's not that big. But he can afford this shity little place down in the meat packing district. Hogg and Heffers is born. There are photos of him on his bikes and fishing and shit like that - many with celebrities who befriended him along the way - adorning the walls back by the pool table.

Anyway - I guess he made it to 30 or so - but one day they just found him dead in his apartment - he'd been partying for a week of so. But he finally did it. His wife runs the business now.

As for what to expect? It's become very famous in the last year - so weekends - well it gets a bit touristy at night. Best nights are mid-week nights. And yes - I've been there during Fleet Week (they hint at that in the movie) it's wild then. Last time I was there I was 5 models get up on the bar and take there tops off. Have seen entire bachelorette parties do the same. Have seen a 300 lb, (don't know if she was a hog or a heffer) get naked up on that bar. The bar maids run the range from pretty good looking to very good looking - most have tattoos and are very tough. I would never pick a fight with one. As for the spittin' the shot back into a beer bottle - never ever seen that - the girls I witness working there fucking drink. They get fucking drunk. They make tons of money.

I've seen'em get a huge mouthful of Jack and spit it into the eager mouths of young men.

I've never seen'em light the bar on fire - fire is a huge fucking no-no in New York city - the fire marshall if he got wind of such a practive - would shut them fucking down.

As for the real Coyote Ugly? A copy cat business. And not nearly as fun as the real deal. It all boiled down to money. I heard something about the H & H owner sueing the movies makers but think it was settled out of court.

Another great place to go - in this great city.

Sorry this was so fucking long - but I love that place.

PS - took my brother-in-law there once and the only time we could get down there was Sunday afternoon around 4pm. Deadsville - but - we're sitting in there and this big black dog comes in - the bar maid on duty says - hi Charlie. Charlie the dog uses a stool to hop-up on the bar and then walks down the bar - each Sunday afternoon regular (all bikers) pat him and say, hey Charlie - he gets to me and my brother-in-law and he doesn't know us - he turns around, gets back down off the bar and exits like he entered.

I love fucking bars that allow dogs.

I haven't seen the movie

And Sparky, thanks for all the info on Hoggs 'n Heifers. I just HATE that I missed going there several years ago. We were there waaaayyy too late (like 5am) and just got a picture of the sign out front.

One of the reasons we were in the Meat Packing District was b/c someone told us about The Vault. Back then (about 4 yrs ago) it was an incredible S&M club. Now it has relocated I heard and sucks. Anyway, Sparky is right about that area. It is unbelieveably dark and scary as hell.

Hey Sparks.. next time I come to NYC wanna meat me in the Meat Packing District? hehe i said meat-packing..heh
