It's hard to tell it's Baltimore without any criminals in the picture for sure.

How do you know there's no criminals in this picture?

Santa is technically a serial trespasser. I’m pretty sure it’s not a crime, but the Patterson park pagoda was convicted of aggravated cultural appropriation

Nothing that will ever compare the to the original that is for sure. Dark and musty with a terribly slanted pool table but amazing clientele and regulars. Back when fells point had true character!

Hurricane Isabel did that version in. Had many hazy nights in there. The next version was still named Miss Irene's but became a very good restaurant. One pound real porterhouse was my favorite.

In the early days my office was just a crappy little warehouse on wolfe right across from the dead end. Every long day started with coffee from the daily grind and ended with food at dead end or john stevens and shots at irenes. Weekends were more shots at irenes. That place defined my early to mid 20s. No wonder I am pretty much a functioning alcoholic at this point in my life :)

Youre not alone in your functional alcoholic state in Bmo. I had far too many misadventures in the Dead End Saloon, Miss Irene's, Cats Eye, Wharf Rat, John Stevens. A drunken sailors paradise. I got trashed at the Dead End on 9-11. You remember Dr Bob?

It's been The Point at least since I moved to Fells in 2014. Decent place if you're looking for brunch but I wouldn't go there just for a drink.

Pale shadow. Thanks. Seems the Cats Eye is the last pub standing from my era.

Santa's going to turn an ankle on the old railroad track is the problem.

Your wife doesn’t like it, but if these were available for purchase I’d buy a box of them. 😂

Are you the guy who designs those Visit Baltimore ads? Because I am definitely getting that same vibe.

Love you too!

wirelesswizard64 t1_izgpuxp wrote

Haha, sorry if that came off as mean- I love your style and this pic! What I meant to say is that what I assume is a fun image you made in your free time is of the same caliber as a professional ad campaign.

Bro this sucks. Maybe take more than 10 seconds on it. It's hideous. Smashing together a few hacky references to Baltimore doesn't necessarily mean you've hit a home run, it still takes a bit of artistry and skill to make something worthwhile.

C'mon man, check my flair. I live in the city. You seriously think that the only possible way that someone wouldn't love this poorly photoshopped atrocity is if they lived outside of city limits?
