Upon entering, the downstairs area didn’t seem too crowed. There were plenty of tables to sit and enjoy food, but we were there to enjoy costumes, cheap beer, and great music. We made our way upstairs, to a very large area that included, plenty of tables to sit at, a large bar, and a stage. The place was crawling with people in unique get ups, and people waiting to compete in the costume contest. Some of the more interesting ones included two fellows dressed up as Hilton Head Island Coozies, a Nicole Richie Look-A-Like, a thousand Alice in Wonderlands, and a clever group of guys dressed as Ghostbusters, with get this, REAL light-up packs! My favorite costume of the night was Oscar the Grouch, but I’m pretty sure that Nicole Richie took home the prize.

As if this night couldn’t get any more interesting, I encountered a few new twists on old drinks. At the top of the stairs, we were conveniently accosted by a barrel of beer and jell-o shots. Rather than fight our way to the bar for a drink, we had this convenient little stand of goodies to choose from. Surprisingly, the beer was being served in plastic bottles…hmmm….I’m not sure I’m a big fan of this packaging, although I see where the necessity lies in this little quirk. Obviously, a beer stays much cooler in a glass bottle, than plastic, and glass I believe is better for our environment. However, with the rowdy group of folks out that night, I can see where plastic would make for a much softer blow to the head than glass. On to the jell-o shot. A friend and I decided to shoot one of these little orange concoctions, and unscrewed the tops off of the test tube containers. We both attempted to throw back the jell-o unsuccessfully, until we noticed the big sign that read “Suck & Blow Jell-O Shots.” Turns out you have to unscrew both ends of the test tube, and make it a team sport, with one person sucking, and the other…well, you get the idea. Needless to say, it made for great entertainment for the males in our group, and I give Wild Wings credit for the best tasting Jell-O shot I’ve ever encountered.

Overall, I promise to never ignore this place again, as they obviously know how to throw a party, and with the sports bar atmosphere and food, I’m sure their Super Bowl Bash will be one to look forward to.
