Drinking age was 18 back then. I was considered an adult as a junior in high school! The Homestead Tap in my hometown Highland Park was my place but I did make appearances at Smogi's and Walt's and so many others. It's a wonder I survived.

Ah The Homestead.... five dollar pitchers of kamikazes.

Between 2nd and 3rd, southbound side. Nowadays it's a Thai restaurant. Frank Perger was the proprietor. They served Perger burgers. It was a great neighborhood place. I hardly recognize HP or NB these days but it's all good.

Oh man, haven’t thought of that place in probably 20 years. Great bar.

It was my home away from home back then.

Had many a burger/fries for $1 right up until the pandemic. A favorite watering place to go - especially after home Rutgers football games.

I will also attest to the $1 price around this time. I even got them to make double deckers. This and Golden Rail were my favorite pre and post game pubs.
