Apparently someone shanked the bouncer at the Pony Room last night….or Up’s and Downs for you youngins. I guess last night was a downer for the bouncer….he got stabbed in the leg while trying to break up a fight. Why am I not surprised?
Universal Hub reports 6 people total were sent to the Carney with stab wounds.
Now I know everone converges on this place for last call. I have been to the Pony Room once…got a tshirt…never went back. The place has always been seedy. My only suggestion to the dive under the bridge is to maybe spruce the place up. Knock a wall down…throw in a roof deck with a view of the park and river… serve some nice food. Try to attract a different crowd….maybe enforce a dress code. Use what the Blarney Stone did as your guide and run with it. And for Christ’s sake stop letting Ginuwine and his crew into the bar…

You stay classy Pony Roomers….
Surprise Surprise… There’s another nickname for that bar and it’s the bucket. As in the bucket of blood. I’ve been in their many a times and it’s always the same. There is hardly anyone in their before 1230a.m. then the place gets packed until closing. If your going in there always roll with 2 or 3 of your buddies, because most nights it’s Dorchesters version of the ufc. and I don’t mean Ugly F%$#^cking Chicks. I remember the old who’s on first across from fenway, and the nickname that place always had was who’s got your back. That’s what the bucket has turned into.
