@Bill Anderson Yeah, but then again.... lot's of people out there aren't content with simple existences and they end up living them. Might as well be content with your life.
From Kansas, 100% accurate. We had a regular that had been going there everyday for 11 years. In that time he’s only missed a handful of days (funerals/hospital etc). They made a button on the POS system for him, so that anytime prices went up, his drink stayed the same price from 11 years ago.
Coming from small town Australia, when I went to the USA for a year I was feeling homesick. I wandered around looking for the right bar. How did I choose it? I looked for the one with a dog in it. 100% like home.
From michigan, i make jerky, and I have a carhartt that I've def handed jerky out of at the bar. I was tagged in this video on Facebook multiple times 😂😂
I’m from Denmark and we have a small town local bar like that. Everyone knows everybody. And if we haven’t seen one of the locals for a few days we call if he/she is alright. Every person comes in at different times of the day. We help the bar owner whenever she needs help. Refilling the cooler etc or if it is something heavy, she always repays with a round even though she doesn’t have to, but it is her way to say thank you for the help. If she needs to leave for 5 min she always tells us to take care of the bar until she gets back, which we then do. We know how to operate the cashier. I love that little place. It is my free space where friends meet and come together. God bless that little place and every people there.
Spent a week in a small ass town, and this was spot fucking on. I legit changed the paper towels, had a wood token, bartender was a friend and let me get a beer on her smoke break and got yelled at for using a cue that was claimed. Well done guys.
Being from the 'Burgh, and the home of the original H.J. Heinz 'pickle plant' or 'Heinzes' as its known, I see your banana whistles (excellent idea), and RAISE you Heinz green pickle pins 🥒🥒. Definitely on every yinzer's wish list!
@TheKitkat825 Usually most establishments that serve food and drink prohibit dogs from entering. But really small not regulated by the goverment places dont give a fuck and have dogs all over the place.
@@Doofens FDA Guidelines and stuff like that. If its a bar in a small enough town likely the government doesn't even know it exists and doesn't even know you are serving people food.
I used to own a bar in a small town in the northern parts of Sweden. I could literally leave the bar for an hour, and when I came back the beer was gone and my cash register was full of cash. Sometimes I came back and by regulars was busy sweeping the floor. No dog though, but there was a big black stray cat that decided to move in. He had his own spot on a table in a corner. Good ol' times :)
Respecting yet gently teasing, the guy in the corner who prefers to drink alone. This was just heartwarming. There are still pubs in remote parts of Britain where guys hang out and behave in exactly the same way. God bless the beer god bless us normal folks.. Cheers!

Wisconsin law says you can drink at a bar when underage only if parent is present and approved and also if the establishment owner is OK with it. I love Wisconsin. Lived in Illinois all my life and I wish I would've moved up here sooner. S/O from 262
Was at a hotel bar with a bunch of pipeline guys. They drank it dry of miller light so one of them went to the nearest convenience store and bought another 30-rack. Instead of them heading back to the room to drink they handed the beers to the bartender to then sell to them. She made a lot of money that night.
That's me with the four bars a regular. The bar that's a block away from where I work serves me first without me having to ask for what I want even if there are people ahead of me. Helps that I tip good which I only do when the service is excellent and the staff doesn't give me any attitude.
I was born and raised in a small-ass town in Michigan. I’m 26, so I’ve been frequenting there local bar for a while. This is 100% accurate. From the dog in the bar all the way to serving yourself bc the bartender is outside smoking. The best part is, everyone is so cool about it so we can keep doing that. Everyone is honest, pays what they owe, and I think it’s great.

This video is so accurate,they had a Bernese mountain dog in the bar named Johnny, the bartender Steve used to go outside and smoke for a while and we just served ourselves, and it was my unofficial job to refill the soap dispenser And yes, I still have Steve in my contacts and have since I decided not to re-enlist in 2017. He was from a small town outside Milwaukee, and he was a nice guy. he always, without fail, said "Hey, tell your folks I says hi, woncha'?" Steve, if you're reading this, I told my folks.

Can confirm, lived in the Midwest for 5 years. Although when someone asks if you have a nipple on your beer, you must drink your beer until you have less than the other guy. Then call him out for slacking. Also you can get blackout of drunk and forget to pay the tab, but bartenders don't sweat because they'll know you'll be back soon. 😉
There's something deeply true and beautiful about this video, no joke. It was funny too. I loved their buddy in the background just chillin at the table by himself. I feel like I've been transported to this small town and I'm hanging out with these dudes. Cheers.
This makes me want to explore small town America even more. I've only visited a tiny portion of Colorado, but I want to go back to the states some day for a road trip for sure.
So accurate! When I moved from Wisconsin to indiana, I asked when does the bar buy a drink? The bartender said "what?" I miss the small town bar love up north.

I was living and working in a mining town. This is way too fucking accurate. All the miners and everybody else would show up at Joe's Tavern (the cheapest of 4 bars, or the casino but that's only if we got a little extra on payday) on Friday and the weekends. Getting your own beer, the dog, the paper towels, the small town shit talk. Amazing.
my favorite thing about the midwest is the super casual kindness and comfort we have with each other. like the paper towels thing in a bar, a customer saying they could help out like it’s no big deal iS SO M I D W E S T E R N
An Idaho bar I go to is JUST like this!! Things get busy, the Old Guard steps in. Wiping tables, emptying ashtrays, TP, etc...the paper towels, Ive done that!
The monthly tab, wood tokens and cheap food / beer remind me the VFW my dad used to go to in East County, San Diego CA. Except for the dog, they operated the exact same way, I volunteered as a cook for Sunday breakfasts typically, one gent liked his eggs over extra hard, like almost burnt. The waitresses would always walk back into the kitchen “order of eggs, kill ‘em” and I’d know exactly who’s order it was. My grandpa came into town and tried to get a Long Island with his token, bartenders like “sorry that’s good for 1 beer, not a mixed drink” but I think she still accepted it, head shaking. 😂
@Lex Bright Raven yeah I'm sure you couldn't get along with hard working people that aren't interested in your ignorance. I'm more than happy knowing people like you will never live near me.
I used to go camping in the Upper Peninsula a lot and we’d go to a small town bar to enjoy a cheeseburger and beers after days of beans and dehydrated meals. This is so accurate! I miss the Midwest sometimes!
Voyager Lounge, Anchorage Alaska. I up and drove way, way Nort and hit town with nothing in the late 90s. Spent a year in Anchorage and that bar kept me warm, fed, entertained, and I met the best people of my life. The bar is long gone now, but I still have the warmest, best memories of my youth. Nothing beats a local bar where they take you in and adopt you as one of their own. Charlie nails it again!

Can confirm, lived in the Midwest for 5 years. Although when someone asks if you have a nipple on your beer, you must drink your beer until you have less than the other guy. Then call him out for slacking. Also you can get blackout of drunk and forget to pay the tab, but bartenders don't sweat because they'll know you'll be back soon. 😉
Those pubs are the best , being able to feel like home literally .
lol, empty bars are the only ones that get my business. Crowded bars are for college kids.
Is that Paul Ryan sitting at the pub table?
J M he’s been bored ever since leaving Congress.
BeeeZeee 😂
Right? That was my same Q. He got gray really quick though the last few years in the hell hole he had to work in
man's got a lot of free time on his hands why not get a feature on a ohhbetcha vid?
Must be a Janesville bar
Being fed homemade beef jerky from someone’s pocket is my love language.
Can confirm this is the same in my local small town pub in the Netherlands.
There's something deeply true and beautiful about this video, no joke. It was funny too. I loved their buddy in the background just chillin at the table by himself. I feel like I've been transported to this small town and I'm hanging out with these dudes. Cheers.
I was a bartender at a local bar in the Midwest and this is so accurate. Leaving money for another regular is spot on 😂😂
I’m from Florida. I spent 30 years in bars like that . That video is 100% spot on . Thanks
This makes me want to explore small town America even more. I've only visited a tiny portion of Colorado, but I want to go back to the states some day for a road trip for sure.
Come up north in Wisco dude. It’s so goddamn relaxing
Lol Colorado isn't Midwestern anymore stick to Nebraska, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri for the full experience.
@@rc59191 That's the great plains, not the midwest.
@@BackseatStudios the great plains are part of the Midwest ask any geography teacher.
@@rc59191 they may be considered that, but as a trucker, they're completely different areas.
"He's gonna get the chalk all messed up on it. I just got it the way I wanted it too."
I feel you brother, I feel you.
So accurate! When I moved from Wisconsin to indiana, I asked when does the bar buy a drink? The bartender said "what?" I miss the small town bar love up north.
Troy Linden the bars up here in superior Wisconsin always buy ya at least one
What? Say more.
🤣😂Love being from a small town 💕❤️. This is spot-on!! 🇺🇲
New England bartender here, and this is so accurate 😂 ❤
"We had 15 beers, huh? I don't think I have 22 bucks on me right now."
Plot twist: Baxter isn't a dog he's just a country boy with a kink
Still a good boi either way
@@sniper1k223 🙊🤣🤣
Lmfao
Watched Comedy Central about a week ago and learned what "Puppy Play" was....and hot damn did I learn that the world is worse than I thought....not because of war, poverty, or famine....but because there is such a thing as "Puppy Play"
DIDNT SEE THAT COMING AHA
It's SO True. Everyone is a member of the "family". It's GREAT!
I'm an Aussie and I found this to be pure gold. It's much like how it is in OZ out in the bush.
Lmao, that looks like Paul Ryan in the back!
This is wholesome a.f. actually, I want to hang out with these guys.
It’s weird how this is still accurate in a small farming town in the UK! Haa 🏴 🇬🇧
I'm from rural Nebraska and this is 100% spot on.
Cop: So your alibi is you were at the bar between the times of 1:00pm and 3:00pm is that correct?
Midwesterner: Uhh yea was just goin through a couple beers yah kno?
Cop: *Nods to the other cop* Bring her in
Midwesterner's Wife: *Walks in* I KNEW it! Suckin up lites with the boys instead a' prayin to your lord and savior weren't 'cha?
Ya Betcha, yaaaa
@@MuppetNLL
Perfect👌
GOLD 🙌🏽
The unwrapped jerky out of the coat is spot on
I lived in a small town in North Dakota for a few years. This is spot on!
AMAZING....Brings back memories...I miss those days...Thank you for making me cry....
Dead on. Dont forget the high school reunion every holiday.
"Can we get a few for the ditch?"
Love those small-town Taverns with the soaked in beer for years' smell.
I was living and working in a mining town. This is way too fucking accurate. All the miners and everybody else would show up at Joe's Tavern (the cheapest of 4 bars, or the casino but that's only if we got a little extra on payday) on Friday and the weekends. Getting your own beer, the dog, the paper towels, the small town shit talk. Amazing.
my favorite thing about the midwest is the super casual kindness and comfort we have with each other. like the paper towels thing in a bar, a customer saying they could help out like it’s no big deal iS SO M I D W E S T E R N
I used to take the trash out at a spot in a neighborhood bar in Cleveland. It’s just how it goes.
I was practically raised in a veterans bar due to being raised by my grandpa and this is 110% correct
Yes!!!
An Idaho bar I go to is JUST like this!! Things get busy, the Old Guard steps in. Wiping tables, emptying ashtrays, TP, etc...the paper towels, Ive done that!
"I'm gonna say yer right" - the most Midwest saying ever 👌
I have been bartending for over a decade in the midwest and every bit of this is true.
But there was no roll a day !! Only thing they missed
Is it a very pleasant job with this kind of vibe?
I’ve lived in Fargo, ND my whole life. Yes. We talk like this. We say “ope” at least 50 times a day.
Christian Hustad haha I’m southern Manitoba, so close to you and it’s so different 🤣🤣👍
We say “eh” or “huh” at that same rate
I'm from Croatia and I say op (which is basically similiar to ope in its context, but we have op and opa) same amount of times a day :D
What is Ope?
@@swetavyas As far as I know, since similiar saying is used here, it's everything depending of how you say it :D
I really want to have a few beers with these guys for real.
From 2019, I know! Just saw it. But this is my favorite. Best ever!! Thanks guys.
Only thing missing is them playing the same 15-20 soft rock songs from the late 70s-mid 80s on the jukebox every single day.
This transcends boarders, Saskatchewan, and Alberta like this to a T, just more swears n darts eh boys
Fuck yeah bud. Thats how we do er
Fuck Canada.
Ohh we play darts guy!
@@duncanmcdougall9787 She's in prison, for shooting a Canadian. And atleast our milk doesn't come in bags you freaks.
@@Kromsmitesyou if you dont like bagged milk youre not gonna like ceasers bucko
Good deal! Lol and changing the paper towels himself. So accurate.
This is really good. Thanks for posting.... (I'm a Californian who lived in the upper midwest for a few years. You guys nailed it.)
The "bar dog" gets me everytime.
“I think that extra hour is worth it!”
“I’m gonna say you’re right.” 😂
Watched this 3 times! Can’t get enough!! Love it! Homemade jerky!
The monthly tab, wood tokens and cheap food / beer remind me the VFW my dad used to go to in East County, San Diego CA. Except for the dog, they operated the exact same way, I volunteered as a cook for Sunday breakfasts typically, one gent liked his eggs over extra hard, like almost burnt. The waitresses would always walk back into the kitchen “order of eggs, kill ‘em” and I’d know exactly who’s order it was. My grandpa came into town and tried to get a Long Island with his token, bartenders like “sorry that’s good for 1 beer, not a mixed drink” but I think she still accepted it, head shaking. 😂
I’m from the south, and this shows how “Country is Country wide!”
Grew up in a town of 800 on the west coast and lived in the south. It is country wide when you get away from the garbage cities.
@Lex Bright Ravenyeah, you city people are doing such wonderful things.
@Lex Bright Raven lol what. As if country people arent some of the most trustworthy people on earth.
@Lex Bright Raven cities smell like shit and the people are rude.
@Lex Bright Raven yeah I'm sure you couldn't get along with hard working people that aren't interested in your ignorance. I'm more than happy knowing people like you will never live near me.
These sketches need to be a TV show. It's unique, high quality comedy.
This is so accurate I can barely notice the punchlines. They put WORK into this and damn did they get it right
I used to go camping in the Upper Peninsula a lot and we’d go to a small town bar to enjoy a cheeseburger and beers after days of beans and dehydrated meals. This is so accurate! I miss the Midwest sometimes!
I love the 2.50 cents for a 12 inch pizza and the guy double takes on the price hahaha. Very well done.
The new guy was a great addition!
When you’re able to go behind the bar and get yourself a drink, you know you’ve made it
Voyager Lounge, Anchorage Alaska. I up and drove way, way Nort and hit town with nothing in the late 90s. Spent a year in Anchorage and that bar kept me warm, fed, entertained, and I met the best people of my life. The bar is long gone now, but I still have the warmest, best memories of my youth. Nothing beats a local bar where they take you in and adopt you as one of their own.
Charlie nails it again!
