Two years ago, there was an unfortunate shooting at a Florence Plaza night spot called the Brass Monkey. One Florence Police officer provided information to a local news source in which he called the establishment a biker club. It was certainly on after that.
Fans of the club mobbed the news site to protest the appellation of biker. Many gave their own description of their favorite hang out with some calling it nothing less than paradise on earth. Sadly, we now hear that the business went belly up some weeks ago.
The humorous thing is that a UNA writer has done a short article on a new establishment coming soon to that location. The writer called the Brass Monkey a "dive bar."
We don't know if this young lady has been attacked over her term or not. For those of us who've never seen fit to check out the bar personally, alas, now it's too late. We can rejoice that the shooting and angry aftermath gave Shoals cyperspace a new word. No longer is "poop" the only Shoalanda approved euphemism for feces; we can now all call it "snix!"
Apparently there's no new name yet for the club/cinema. We'll keep you posted.
