"best bars" news and stories

Esquire.com is asking readers and web surfers to submit suggestions for great bars that the editors don't know about. Now, they're probably not looking for bars in New York City, unless those bars are really unknown and really cool. I would assume they're looking for those great unsung bars around the country that people might not know about, but not being a "bar person" I might be completely wrong about that.

And this isn't just a "submit the name of the bar and your e-mail and hit send" deal. They also want to know how old the bar is, its size, how loud it is, what business is like on a Friday night, how skilled the bartenders are, even what the average bar patron looks like (the choices range from "Phyllis Diller" to "Lindsay Lohan"). Are you really into this bar? You can submit an essay that just might be published.
