Country, Top Picks

10707 U.S. 19 N
Pinellas Park, FL
(727) 561-9671
Bar Type: Country/Western, Dance/Nightclub

The Word: Mondays and Wednesdays are free Texas Hold'em nights. There's no gambling, only prizes and bar tabs for the winners, and each Saturday brings "Redneck Games" like bobbing for beer and dance-floor trike races.

The Spot: Housed in an old tile store, Pinellas Park's cavernous Waterin' Trough resembles a garage, or a small rodeo, minus the dirt. But regulars swear by its earnest, no-frills feel, from the guys who bring their own pool cues to the Skoal and Jack Daniels banners lining the walls.

The Juice: A bottle of Corona costs $3.25. Sink or Swim specials throughout the week, plus $1 domestic longnecks.

The Grub: None.

The Selling Point: It's the country version of Cheers.
