Hiya, bub. Our name's the Pitch, and we'll be helping you find the perfect dive bar for this period in your life. What you want is something cozy and out of the way. With its long, leather booths, intimate bar and rec-room ambience, "cozy" doesn't even begin to describe Chez Charlie's. And "out of the way"? The only sign outside the place is an hourglasslike neon number that just says COCKTAILS. In fact, we're not even sure the place is really called Chez Charlie's. It could be Where Demetric Taylor Got His Last Shot at Redemption, for all we know — and don't ask us who that is, either. Just made it up. In the men's room, you'll find all the latest girlie-mag centerfolds pinned to the wall. For the athlete in you, there are dart leagues. For the fat ass, there sometimes are free hot dogs or chili on weekend nights. For the music junkie, DJ Superwolf spins classic soul singles on Friday nights. For the dirty old man, there are the women who dance to it. And for the average cat who doesn't need much of anything, well, there's that, too, at Chez.
