Exploring an Abandoned Bar Frozen in Time since 1999 due to toxic water

[@DarkExploration]

Happy new year everyone ! This video is a unique one, a mountain town that used to house mining workers and their families. After the mines ran dry, the jobs left, and in a couple of decades later, we can go back in time and see what's left. Let me know what you think of this place ! And have a happy and healthy new year!

20:23 was that a toy gun on the table? (on the left)

[@slanger2563]

Hey nice interesting video. Definitely a time capsule. Around 27:36 isn't that a Sundrop can? Those old cans didn't have pop tops or pull rings just a church key or a can opener or puncture. That Other soda can. Was a cross between a Sprite & a Mellow Yellow. I had forgotten about them. ✌🏼

[@jimwolfmeyer6664]

Great content but sad to see how great bars were back then, and people were having so much fun. Those days and good people and fun are now just a distant memory. Glad I was around for that.

[@Martyisruling]

This just makes me sad. There used to be a bar where most people knew one another. They had people who worked there for years because they liked it. It closed, remodeled and reopened as something else. But, it has all different employees, and a different crowd. From a certain perspective, that old bar is gone. I'll still run into those people now and again. Greet them with a handshake or a hug. So, seeing this bar and those pictures, makes me a little sad. Some of those people might have gotten together now and again, but that whole crowd, probably haven't all been together since the last time at this bar.

[@moredistractions]

The rifle ad isn't really an advertisement. It's a long running joke about surplus WWII Italian Army rifles. Their condition was "never fired only dropped once", a reference to the Italian Army's record of surrendering instead of fighting on many occasions during that war.

I checked out the comments to see if anyone commented on the "Funky Gentlemen" in the crazy shirt was Garth Brooks? That's definitely very early 90's, a hangover from the colorful 80's. Garth was definitely a breakout western dude. But really... nice walkthrough. Glad to see it wasn't destroyed by vandals.

[@violetgotho6187]

wonderful job on documenting this place long after it's death before it's gone forever. you can tell it meant a lot to many people once.

[@Pladderkasse]

I was 28 in 1999. It's a world I remember of analog machines, vinyl records, filled ashtrays in bars, no flat screens or computers and cellphones. No micro brew, no IPAs or sours or Russian imperial stouts. Lightbulbs where not LED, the light was softer and warmer and tinted with nicotine. I'm in my 50ies now and back then, I would be considered an old man, but that too has changed as 50 has become the new 40 and so on. 2 years later in 2001 on 9/11 the world changed for good and it was never the same. The next big change happened during the "face mask" epidemic. There's a generation that will never know the carefree sense of freedom we had.

[@analogdriven]

As a kid in the 90s, born in the 80s, I watched that carefree sense of freedom and looked forward to it growing up. And you're right in my late 30s, had I been this age during that time I'd have been considered beyond my sell-by date. Now people look at me as if I'm a kid still! It's frustrating knowing what was and has now become. Actual kids hese days really don't understand what's been lost and their behavior most reminds me of people who are institutionalized.

[@gregleonard7391]

[@natewrites7803]

So true, however, as an early Gen Xer, I also experienced the AIDS epidemic that set off a bunch of change, and 😢 that was the beginning of the end of the happy go lucky, good times generations that preceeded me. What came next was an exodus of jobs leaving the country, union crushing, the roots forming of the student loan crises. From Gen X on forward to the present generations, it has been a rough ride for all. . . I could have spent all afternoon with him looking at that photo wall and thinking of grandparents, great aunts and uncles and those times from long ago.

[@RuthShelton-ou4id]

It was stated in the video that the place closed down to toxic water. It looks like the owner just walked away. It couldn't be sold due to the water problems. It's heartbreaking to have to leaver pretty much everthing & walk away. I wonder how many got sick from the water or also may have died because of it.

[@16voyeur]

@@RuthShelton-ou4id Sounds about right to me.

[@RuthShelton-ou4id]

@@16voyeur I would imagine that recorders for that place might be in the town's courthouse. They probably sent some kind of court order to shut the place down. What I'd like to know was what led to having the water tested? Did people start getting sick-- possible death or deaths? Was the owner charged in a death-(s)-- Maybe a big lawsuit? Stuff just doesn't add up to just leave so much behind, at least take the food out of the place- maybe donate it to a church or food bank. Have some yard sales-- There are folks that buy the pin ball machines - with the dart board trophies that were displayed so proudly -- Wouldn't you take the trophies with you? They don't take up much room. Was there only one owner-& maybe that person died because of the water & that's why the place wasn't cleaned out? Just look at all the pictures left there ! Wouldn't the locals who had their pictures taken there want to save their pictures? So many questions to most likely never will get answers. If I could I'd go to the courthouse & library and would try to find out answers. Microfish - go through old news papers at the library.

IF the water suppy got contaminated, you have to have water to be able to serve food and maintain that type of business for sanitary reasons.

[@vitorjr2913]

Watching this reminds me of how good the 80s and 90s were, because only those who lived through that time like I did know that today everything has become boring. Before, when we went to a place like this, we had contact with people, and today the damn smartphone has destroyed all that. I've seen people sitting at a party who, instead of enjoying themselves, are like zombies on their devices. Thank you for bringing back these memories. Hugs to everyone. I'm from Brazil, but I watch videos like this from all over the world, comparing the cultures and perspectives of each place, from when it was and how it is today.

It's a bowling game. The pins drop down and there was a metal disk you used as a "ball'. There was a powder that would make the lane fast so you could really send the 'ball' flying. Yup game from my childhood I think it was like ten cents a game.

[@Louis-h3o]

I loved places like this, always friendly

[@mdeysenroth]

Thanks for another great episode. The arcade game is a Shuffleboard. This looks like a bowling game. The pins would flip down. The surface would be very smooth wood, dusted with a little sawdust to keep it slippery. Your playing piece would be a very smooth, heavy metal disc about the size of a hockey puck, which you would slide down to knock down, or in the case of a shuffleboard, flip your pins up. The machine would total your score like a pinball machine would. They were really quite fun, but I haven't seen one in years. Very cool to see!

Because they are too busy on social media and apps to meet people. You used to actually have to go out to find a significant other. I met my wife of 20 years at a bar randomly (it was a karaoke night and we both had been dragged by a friend) the bar was in the middle of nowhere (the Abby in Enosburgh Vermont- google it) we exchanged numbers, and I called her house for 3 weeks until we finally reconnected and went out. The rest was history lol. But you had to have some sort of communication skills to actually get someone to talk to you, it wasn’t fake filtered photos on an app, you saw each other face to face the moment you met, that chemistry was the best feeling when you met someone you were not only attracted to, but could hold conversation!

Regular specials, beef from a local rancher and had great burgers and only big name beers on tap. And rock music, no other BS, no grunge, rap or anything, rock and country, good country, not "new country" which was awful. I loved that place the times we went, especially after spending 14 hours or more on my motorcycle riding out to visit them, I had the coldest glass of beer there and I needed it in the worst way!

It's a shuffle alley. All electromechanical and no computer parts, and still great fun! Definitely savable and worth restoring if someone could purchase it from whoever owns the property. This United Cavalier was manufactured in 1976, so by 2000 it was already very old. It was one of the last electromechanical models produced before Williams/United switched over to computers/digital/Solid-state to run their shuffle alleys and pinball machines.

​@@pianoman4JesusIndeed. Chicago for many decades was the worldwide manufacturing home of pinball machines and video arcade machines, and still is for pinball.

Something happened, the last time somebody turned out the lights and shut the doors nobody thought it would be The Last Time. Or perhaps they knew.

Hello Devin: Thank you for another very interesting video. I have enjoyed your videos and I am still trying to catch up with all you created. What I appreciate is your interest in the places you record. I was really struck by this video because my grandma owned a restaurant in a small town that looked a lot like this bar. And it was a place where "everybody knows your name" and the locals like to hang out because of her. She could dish it out, so to speak, and she could take it - all with the greatest love and respect for every one of those who came in the door. She would get up every morning at 3 am to make homemade pies and other treats for the day. Even though she was sick she never wanted to be put in a hospital or home. So true to her wish, one day she took someone's order (she ran the greasy spoon cafe by herself) and did not come back out. Finally a customer went to check and found her passed out on a counter. She died doing exactly the way she wanted to go: Working, not in a home or hospital. Thank you for a wonderful memory. While I was sad to lose her, I live with her happy memories every day. Sincerely, Bruce

More than likely they were forced out and not allowed to return at the time per court order. County usually takes over and then these places just rot.

the record you show at 5:03 is all the way from the UK, wonder how it got out there. It has the price of 89p from a shop called W.H.Smith. They're still in business today and are akin to something like a Staples, selling office supplies and books.

I noticed a Budweiser Light sign on the old cooler behind the bar. Budweiser Light was introduced in 1982, and was renamed Bud Light by late 1983.

United Cavalier is a shuffleboard table. You put sawdust down on the table and slide a puck to hit pins that were hanging.

ha i work in the beverage industry and ive seen some small bars that look frozen in the 80s. even with the small amounts of modern tech the overall inside looks like its from the past in those places. but then i was a kid in the 80s and hit my teen years in the 90s so i know what the overall asthetic of that time period was.
