I don’t know if it needs a presentation but the tale is still worth sharing. The famous Coyote Ugly Saloon was born from a great life story, Lil’s story which sounds pretty much like this:
Lil was born in NYC in a middle class family, she attended a Catholic High School surrounded by rich students while she had to hold 2 jobs just to pay the school. Maybe her life wasn’t easy but she knew how to pick useful things, she knew how to manage her ambitions and her dreams in order to build a glorious future and most of all, she knew what she was good at- making money.
At 17, while working as a waitress, Lil had her first chance to prove her abilities as a bartender, when the one in charge went on vacation. Everything started when she unleashed herself behind the bar beginning to sing, hustling drinks and dancing on the top of it, transforming the restaurant into a bar.
According to Lil, then have followed several attempts to try different jobs but when she realized that she could make in one bar-tending night the money that she was earning in a week on Wall Street, she has returned to the job that was making her happy.
On January 27th, 1993, Lil’s dream has finally materialized and the Coyote Ugly Saloon has born as a reward for her work, ambition and talent.
She hired beautiful girls to sing, dance and to prepare drinks in the most unusual way, she created a heaven, she revolutionized the bartending world and she inspired Hollywood to make a movie- Coyote Ugly(1997), gaining international popularity.
Now, she has a beautiful son and she lives in New Orleans while Coyote Ugly Saloon is running in 10 locations in U.S, being one of the most popular bars in America, developing the same concept – offering great drinks, amazing moments, the same hot and unique atmosphere created by lovely girls who are able to take your last penny in the most beautiful way.
Despite its audacious reputation, Coyote Ugly Saloon is a great place to party, an authentic life story and the fulfillment of the American dream.
You can now have the same unforgettable experience in Las Vegas, New Orleans, Tampa, Austin, Panama City, San Antonio, Nashville, Denver, Tampa, Memphis, Oklahoma, Milwaukee, even Germany and Russia and who knows which will be the next location, but remember: They don’t serve water there!
