How many old-timers here remember Skylab's crash in '79 and the subsequent massive media craze that surrounded it? I was only about two years old at the time, but we were taught about it in elementary school.

I remember (I think).

Phoenix Hill Tavern was one of the happenin' bars in Louisville.

They had a huge rooftop bar and they always had live music.

I know that some of you have been there:

There have been problems with patrons leaving late at night and being out in the streets and also with littering, fights and urinating in peoples' yards, Cindy Brown Kinloch, executive director of the Phoenix Hill Neighborhood Association, said Monday.


On the night of the anticipated Skylab crash -- no cover if you wear a helmet or bring a catcher's mitt.
