SUMMARY:Nascar Pennzoil 400 presented by Jiffy Lube - Las Vegas Motor Speedway
DESCRIPTION:Nascar is easily one of the biggest events that rolls through Vegas on an annual basis.  The Las Vegas Motor Speedway is huge\, and will fill up with 100\,000 party goers once the Penzoil 400 roars into action.  If you’ve never been to a Nascar event\, get your ass off the couch and make sure you take in a race before the old man in the sky nabs ya.  Even if you’re not a racing fan\, Nascar events are fun as f*ckkkkk.  They’re are loud\, the cars are incredibly fast\, and most of the crowd is there to get their party on.  If you’re looking for the perfect place to lube up while you’re in town for the race\, we’ll see you at Hogs!  No cover\, free motorcycle parking\, and the most entertaining bartenders in the world… start yourrr engines!!! \n      \nHogs & Heifers Saloon \n201 N 3rd St. Downtown Las Vegas  \n21+ w/ID | NO COVER | FREE MOTORCYCLE PARKING  \n  \nDIVE BAR \nBIKER BAR \nHONKY TONK BAR \nCOUNTRY BAR \nROCK & ROLL BAR \nPUNK ROCK BAR \nMOTORSPORTS BAR \nINFAMOUS BAR \nYOUR FAVORITE BAR \nGIRLS ALWAYS ON THE BAR \n_ \nTHE HISTORY OF HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar. Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar\, that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nABOUT MICHELLE DELL \nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitressed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor. Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry.\n\nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in.\n \nOver the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor. Today she is a respected and sought after food stylist\, working with magazines such as Oprah\, Bon Appetit\, Essence & Domino to name a few.\n\nMichelle attended public schools in New York City\, and was accepted into the High School of Performing Arts where she spent her teenage years as a student in the Drama Department. She went on to attend SUNY Purchase\, where she spent her first year of College before transferring to Bennington College in Bennington Vermont\, on scholarship where she double majored in Literature and Psychology. Bartending and waiting tables throughout her college years\, Michelle managed to finance her education and make ends meet\, but she left Bennington in her senior year\, before completing her thesis\, due to a family tragedy.\n\nIntending to finish her thesis in absentia\, Michelle quickly set about finding work in Manhattan in order to pay her rent often holding several jobs waiting tables and bartending. Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…\n\nMichelle returned back to New York to stay. In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”. He hired her on the spot. Laughing about it both then and now\, Michelle says it was love at first site!\n \nAllan moved in with Michelle that December\, they were engaged to be married within six months and foregoing a huge wedding\, they eloped in Reno Nevada and were married on November 16th\, 1993 on a cliff overlooking Lake Tahoe by the esteemed Nevada Reverend\, Dr. Love.\n\nHogs & Heifers Saloon opened for business on the day after Thanksgiving in November 1992 with Michelle behind the bar. The early days were tough\, mostly because there were no customers\, and therefore no money. That being said\, there was also no heat and Michelle would come to work wearing tiny little leather halter tops in the dead of winter\, and with the always wet floor (rubber floor mats were not in the budget yet) Michelle’s motorcycle boot clad feet were cold\, wet and covered in cement! Alone in the bar and freezing\, Michelle started dancing on the bar as a means to keep warm. She says that her clogging on the bar was inspired by a scene from the movie A Coal Miner’s Daughter\, starring Sissy Spacek. Michelle had a love for country music and immediately felt at home at Hogs & Heifers. She would walk to work in the morning from her West Village apartment\, through the Gansevoort Meat Market and invite all of the meat packers and construction workers to come visit her at the bar\, and they did! Hogs & Heifers had a bustling day business\, long before the night time business caught on. On any given day you could walk into Hogs & Heifers before 6PM and find a bar full of meat packers\, iron workers\, construction workers\, plumbers\, electricians\, operating engineers\, dock workers\, city workers and so on.\n \nFollowing Allan’s death in 1997\, Michelle continued on as the sole proprietor of the New York City location until it tragically closed August 23rd\, 2015.\n\nIn 2003 the city of Las Vegas came knocking at our front door looking for a diamond in the rough to help launch its’ Downtown revitalization project.  Loving the odds\,  Michelle rolled the dice\, opening H&H in Vegas in 2005\,  and she continues to be the heart and soul behind the daily mayhem\, madness\, and the sheer magic that is Hogs & Heifers Saloon.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:Presidents Day in Downtown Las Vegas
DESCRIPTION:The third Monday of every February is a time to remember presidents\, and for some\, get hammered and enjoy a day off!  Presidents Day\, also known as Washington’s Birthday\, falls on Monday the 17th this year. The day is a federal holiday\, which means most government institutions will be closed.  Even though Hogs is an institution\, we will not be closing on Presidents Day.  Like any other day of the year\, we’ll be dancin’ and drinkin’ from 12 noon until 4am!  At this bar\, we love our country\, so this is a day to celebrate no matter who’s in office.  If you have the day off and feel like throwin’ a few back\, make your way to the best little dive bar in Vegas!! \n      \nHogs & Heifers Saloon \n201 N 3rd St. Downtown Las Vegas  \n21+ w/ID | NO COVER | FREE MOTORCYCLE PARKING  \n  \nDIVE BAR \nBIKER BAR \nHONKY TONK BAR \nCOUNTRY BAR \nROCK & ROLL BAR \nPUNK ROCK BAR \nMOTORSPORTS BAR \nINFAMOUS BAR \nYOUR FAVORITE BAR \nGIRLS ALWAYS ON THE BAR \n_ \nTHE HISTORY OF HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar.

Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry. \nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in.Over the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor.

Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…Michelle returned back to New York to stay. In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”.

Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar\, that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nABOUT MICHELLE DELL \nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother.

The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nMORE ON OUR OWNER MICHELLE:\n\nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitreSsed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor. Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry.\n\nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in.\n\nOver the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor. Today she is a respected and sought after food stylist\, working with magazines such as Oprah\, Bon Appetit\, Essence & Domino to name a few.\n \nMichelle attended public schools in New York City\, and was accepted into the High School of Performing Arts where she spent her teenage years as a student in the Drama Department. She went on to attend SUNY Purchase\, where she spent her first year of College before transferring to Bennington College in Bennington Vermont\, on scholarship where she double majored in Literature and Psychology. Bartending and waiting tables throughout her college years\, Michelle managed to finance her education and make ends meet\, but she left Bennington in her senior year\, before completing her thesis\, due to a family tragedy.\n\nIntending to finish her thesis in absentia\, Michelle quickly set about finding work in Manhattan in order to pay her rent often holding several jobs waiting tables and bartending. Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…\n\nMichelle returned back to New York to stay. In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”. He hired her on the spot. Laughing about it both then and now\, Michelle says it was love at first site!\n\nAllan moved in with Michelle that December\, they were engaged to be married within six months and foregoing a huge wedding\, they eloped in Reno Nevada and were married on November 16th\, 1993 on a cliff overlooking Lake Tahoe by the esteemed Nevada Reverend\, Dr. Love.\n \nHogs & Heifers Saloon opened for business on the day after Thanksgiving in November 1992 with Michelle behind the bar. The early days were tough\, mostly because there were no customers\, and therefore no money. That being said\, there was also no heat and Michelle would come to work wearing tiny little leather halter tops in the dead of winter\, and with the always wet floor (rubber floor mats were not in the budget yet) Michelle’s motorcycle boot clad feet were cold\, wet and covered in cement! Alone in the bar and freezing\, Michelle started dancing on the bar as a means to keep warm. She says that her clogging on the bar was inspired by a scene from the movie A Coal Miner’s Daughter\, starring Sissy Spacek. Michelle had a love for country music and immediately felt at home at Hogs & Heifers. She would walk to work in the morning from her West Village apartment\, through the Gansevoort Meat Market and invite all of the meat packers and construction workers to come visit her at the bar\, and they did! Hogs & Heifers had a bustling day business\, long before the night time business caught on. On any given day you could walk into Hogs & Heifers before 6PM and find a bar full of meat packers\, iron workers\, construction workers\, plumbers\, electricians\, operating engineers\, dock workers\, city workers and so on.\n \nFollowing Allan’s death in 1997\, Michelle continued on as the sole proprietor of the New York City location until it tragically closed August 23rd\, 2015.\n\nIn 2003 the city of Las Vegas came knocking at our front door looking for a diamond in the rough to help launch its’ Downtown revitalization project.  Loving the odds\,  Michelle rolled the dice\, opening H&H in Vegas in 2005\,  and she is to be the heart and soul behind the daily mayhem\, madness\, and the sheer magic that is Hogs & Heifers Saloon.\n\n  \nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:First Friday | Downtown Las Vegas | No Cover | Free Motorcycle Parking
DESCRIPTION:We don’t have an official First Friday show\, but we do see art wanderers make it to the saloon after their gallery touring ends\, and the consuming of cheep beer begins.  Box wine sucks anyways.  Ya know nothing goes better with warm Merlot than a chilled shot of $3 Hogs Piss. \nIf you’re out on First Friday bar hoping in Downtown Las Vegas\, make a point to stop at Hogs & Heifers! At 3rd and Ogden\, we’re less than a mile from the center of the Arts District …  that’s fuckin’ close folks\, even for your lazy ass.  Maybe you can ride one of those rental bikes and park it in front of Hogs?  The weather is still nice enough this time of year\, the sidewalk and benches out front offer some of the best places to people watch in all of downtown. \nPlease don’t ask for wine when ordering a drink at Hogs because we don’t fuckin’ have any… and no fucking whining. \nThe picture of the Hog & Heifers art below was created by our good friend Albert Chailosky\, who is still creating life-like sculptures similar to this Hogs piece…  we love you Albert!! \nFrom 12 noon – 4am daily | 21+ w/ID | No Cover | Free Motorcycle Parking \n \n  \n  \n \nTHE HISTORY OF HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar. Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar\, that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more.

Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar and that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nMORE ON OUR OWNER MICHELLE:\n\nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitreSsed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor.

Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults.

SUMMARY:Dark Alliance Firearms at Hogs - SHOT Show 2020 - 21+ w/ID | NO COVER | FREE MOTORCYCLE PARKING
DESCRIPTION:The get together with Dark Alliance Firearms is part of a series of events we’re throwing at our bar while SHOT Show is in town! \nSHOT (Shooting\, Hunting\, Outdoor Trade) Show is an annual trade-show for the shooting\, hunting\, and firearms industry.  It’s the biggest event of this type in the world and will bring over 60\,000 people to Las Vegas.  On this night we’ll welcome a group from Dark Alliance Firearms to Hogs & Heifers Saloon! \nThis is a special event that corresponds with the SHOT Show\, but our bar will remain open to the public for those 21 years and older with ID. \nNo Cover – No Ties – Free Motorcycle Parking \n \n \n   \nHogs & Heifers Saloon \n201 N 3rd St. Downtown Las Vegas  \nOne Block North of the Fremont Street Experience \n21+ w/ID | NO COVER | FREE MOTORCYCLE PARKING \nDIVE BAR \nBIKER BAR \nHONKY TONK BAR \nCOUNTRY BAR \nROCK & ROLL BAR \nPUNK ROCK BAR \nMOTORSPORTS BAR \nINFAMOUS BAR \nYOUR FAVORITE BAR \nGIRLS ALWAYS ON THE BAR \n  \n  \nTHE HISTORY OF MICHELLE AND HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar. Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar and that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nMORE ON OUR OWNER MICHELLE:\n\nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitreSsed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor.

SUMMARY:AVN - Adult Entertainment Expo - Downtown Las Vegas
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that if you Google “Show me your nipples”\, one of our older blogs from the Laughlin Rally shows up on the first page…  That’s a proud accomplishment for a small\, non-corporate dive bar!  We’re probably one of the most famous places in the world where females can dance on a bar\, and show just about everything they want\, but oddly no nipples allowed.  One may slip out every now and then…  and if we do have a Janet Jackson Super Bowl moment on the bar\, we do keep some Hogs stickers handy to cover thy nipple.  Sooo\, if you’re feeling frisky while the Adult Entertainment Expo is in town\, come whip out those titties while dancin’ on the bar.  Our ladies we’ll be happy to sticker you up 😉 \n*This is a friendly reminder\, we no longer make the trip to Laughlin.  \n \n21+ w/ID | NO COVER \nNOON TO 4AM DAILY \nHogs & Heifers Saloon \nDowntown Las Vegas  \n  \nDIVE BAR \nBIKER BAR \nHONKY TONK BAR \nROCK & ROLL BAR \nPUNK ROCK BAR \nCOUNTRY BAR \nYOUR FAVORITE BAR \nWORLD FAMOUS BAR \nGIRLS ALWAYS ON THE BAR \n  \nTHE HISTORY OF MICHELLE AND HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar.

SUMMARY:Breach Bang Clear - The Bangin' Brouhaha Returns! SHOT 2020

Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar and that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nMORE ON OUR OWNER MICHELLE:\n\nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitreSsed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor. Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry.\n\nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in.\n\nOver the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor. Today she is a respected and sought after food stylist\, working with magazines such as Oprah\, Bon Appetit\, Essence & Domino to name a few.\n \nMichelle attended public schools in New York City\, and was accepted into the High School of Performing Arts where she spent her teenage years as a student in the Drama Department. She went on to attend SUNY Purchase\, where she spent her first year of College before transferring to Bennington College in Bennington Vermont\, on scholarship where she double majored in Literature and Psychology. Bartending and waiting tables throughout her college years\, Michelle managed to finance her education and make ends meet\, but she left Bennington in her senior year\, before completing her thesis\, due to a family tragedy.\n\nIntending to finish her thesis in absentia\, Michelle quickly set about finding work in Manhattan in order to pay her rent often holding several jobs waiting tables and bartending. Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…\n\nMichelle returned back to New York to stay. In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”. He hired her on the spot. Laughing about it both then and now\, Michelle says it was love at first site!\n\nAllan moved in with Michelle that December\, they were engaged to be married within six months and foregoing a huge wedding\, they eloped in Reno Nevada and were married on November 16th\, 1993 on a cliff overlooking Lake Tahoe by the esteemed Nevada Reverend\, Dr. Love.\n \nHogs & Heifers Saloon opened for business on the day after Thanksgiving in November 1992 with Michelle behind the bar. The early days were tough\, mostly because there were no customers\, and therefore no money. That being said\, there was also no heat and Michelle would come to work wearing tiny little leather halter tops in the dead of winter\, and with the always wet floor (rubber floor mats were not in the budget yet) Michelle’s motorcycle boot clad feet were cold\, wet and covered in cement! Alone in the bar and freezing\, Michelle started dancing on the bar as a means to keep warm. She says that her clogging on the bar was inspired by a scene from the movie A Coal Miner’s Daughter\, starring Sissy Spacek. Michelle had a love for country music and immediately felt at home at Hogs & Heifers. She would walk to work in the morning from her West Village apartment\, through the Gansevoort Meat Market and invite all of the meat packers and construction workers to come visit her at the bar\, and they did! Hogs & Heifers had a bustling day business\, long before the night time business caught on. On any given day you could walk into Hogs & Heifers before 6PM and find a bar full of meat packers\, iron workers\, construction workers\, plumbers\, electricians\, operating engineers\, dock workers\, city workers and so on.\n \nFollowing Allan’s death in 1997\, Michelle continued on as the sole proprietor of the New York City location until it tragically closed August 23rd\, 2015.\n\nIn 2003 the city of Las Vegas came knocking at our front door looking for a diamond in the rough to help launch its’ Downtown revitalization project.  Loving the odds\,  Michelle rolled the dice\, opening H&H in Vegas in 2005\,  and she is to be the heart and soul behind the daily mayhem\, madness\, and the sheer magic that is Hogs & Heifers Saloon.\n\n\nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:First Friday | Downtown Las Vegas
DESCRIPTION:We don’t have an official First Friday show\, but we do see art wanderers make it to the saloon after their gallery touring ends\, and the consuming of cheep beer begins.  Box wine sucks anyways.  Ya know nothing goes better with warm Merlot than a chilled shot of $3 Hogs Piss. \nIf you’re out on First Friday bar hoping in Downtown Las Vegas\, make a point to stop at Hogs & Heifers! At 3rd and Ogden\, we’re less than a mile from the center of the Arts District …  that’s fuckin’ close folks\, even for your lazy ass.  Maybe you can ride one of those rental bikes and park it in front of Hogs?  The weather is nice this time of year\, the sidewalk and benches out front offer some of the best places to people watch in all of downtown.  Now shut the fuck up and let’s have a drink! \nPlease don’t ask for wine when ordering a drink at Hogs because we don’t fuckin’ have any… and no fucking whining. \nThe picture of the Hog & Heifers art below was created by our good friend Albert Chailosky\, who is still creating life-like sculptures similar to this Hogs piece…  we love you Albert!! \nFrom 12 noon – 4am daily | 21+ w/ID | No Cover \n \n  \n  \n \nTHE HISTORY OF HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar. Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar\, that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nABOUT MICHELLE DELL \nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitressed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor. Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry.\n\nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in.\n \nOver the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor. Today she is a respected and sought after food stylist\, working with magazines such as Oprah\, Bon Appetit\, Essence & Domino to name a few.\n\nMichelle attended public schools in New York City\, and was accepted into the High School of Performing Arts where she spent her teenage years as a student in the Drama Department. She went on to attend SUNY Purchase\, where she spent her first year of College before transferring to Bennington College in Bennington Vermont\, on scholarship where she double majored in Literature and Psychology. Bartending and waiting tables throughout her college years\, Michelle managed to finance her education and make ends meet\, but she left Bennington in her senior year\, before completing her thesis\, due to a family tragedy.\n\nIntending to finish her thesis in absentia\, Michelle quickly set about finding work in Manhattan in order to pay her rent often holding several jobs waiting tables and bartending. Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…\n\nMichelle returned back to New York to stay. In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”.

She went on to attend SUNY Purchase\, where she spent her first year of College before transferring to Bennington College in Bennington Vermont\, on scholarship where she double majored in Literature and Psychology. Bartending and waiting tables throughout her college years\, Michelle managed to finance her education and make ends meet\, but she left Bennington in her senior year\, before completing her thesis\, due to a family tragedy. \nIntending to finish her thesis in absentia\, Michelle quickly set about finding work in Manhattan in order to pay her rent often holding several jobs waiting tables and bartending. Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…Michelle returned back to New York to stay. \nIn early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”. He hired her on the spot. Laughing about it both then and now\, Michelle says it was love at first site!Allan moved in with Michelle that December\, they were engaged to be married within six months and foregoing a huge wedding\, they eloped in Reno Nevada and were married on November 16th\, 1993 on a cliff overlooking Lake Tahoe by the esteemed Nevada Reverend\, Dr. Love.Hogs & Heifers Saloon opened for business on the day after Thanksgiving in November 1992 with Michelle behind the bar. \nThe early days were tough\, mostly because there were no customers\, and therefore no money. That being said\, there was also no heat and Michelle would come to work wearing tiny little leather halter tops in the dead of winter\, and with the always wet floor (rubber floor mats were not in the budget yet) Michelle’s motorcycle boot clad feet were cold\, wet and covered in cement! Alone in the bar and freezing\, Michelle started dancing on the bar as a means to keep warm. She says that her clogging on the bar was inspired by a scene from the movie A Coal Miner’s Daughter\, starring Sissy Spacek. Michelle had a love for country music and immediately felt at home at Hogs & Heifers. She would walk to work in the morning from her West Village apartment\, through the Gansevoort Meat Market and invite all of the meat packers and construction workers to come visit her at the bar\, and they did! \nHogs & Heifers had a bustling day business\, long before the night time business caught on. On any given day you could walk into Hogs & Heifers before 6PM and find a bar full of meat packers\, iron workers\, construction workers\, plumbers\, electricians\, operating engineers\, dock workers\, city workers and so on. \nFollowing Allan’s death in 1997\, Michelle continued on as the sole proprietor of the New York City location until it tragically closed August 23rd\, 2015. \nIn 2003 the city of Las Vegas came knocking at our front door looking for a diamond in the rough to help launch its’ Downtown revitalization project.  Loving the odds\,  Michelle rolled the dice\, opening H&H in Vegas in 2005\, and she continues to be the heart and soul behind the daily mayhem\, madness\, and the sheer magic that is Hogs & Heifers Saloon. \nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:FOR ONE DAY ONLY | WE'RE CLOSED
DESCRIPTION:We’re having our Christmas Party…  Go have a drink and a slice with our neighbors – Pizza Rock \nHOLIDAY HOURS \nThanksgiving – 7pm – 4am \nDecember 16th – CLOSED ALL DAY \nChristmas Eve – 12pm – 4am \nChristmas Day – 7pm – 4am \nNew Year’s Eve – 12pm – 4am \nNew Year’s Day – 7pm – 4am \n \nTHE HISTORY OF MICHELLE AND HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar. Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar and that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nMORE ABOUT OUR OWNER MICHELLE: \nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitressed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor. Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry. \nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in. \nOver the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor.

SUMMARY:Wrangler National Finals Rodeo Kickoff Party - The Horses Are Back!
DESCRIPTION:Every year when the National Finals Rodeo comes to Sin City\, we always throw a little kickoff party at Hogs.  Part of this annual tradition includes a visit from some horses…  Horses in Downtown Las Vegas???  You have to see it to believe it!  We have horses line up out front in the same spot the motorcycles park.  It’s a bad-ass tradition and one of the more unique things you’ll ever see in Las Vegas!  Even if you’re not a fan of the rodeo\, you’ll love hangin’ with horses in front of the saloon.  We’ll see you on Friday!  The horses will start showing up around 7pm.  As always\, no cover\, and don’t forget your ID! \nIf you’re going to join the party\, let us know on Facebook! \n     \n \nTHE HISTORY OF MICHELLE AND HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar. Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar and that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nMORE ABOUT OUR OWNER MICHELLE: \nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitressed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor. Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry. \nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in. \nOver the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor. Today she is a respected and sought after food stylist\, working with magazines such as Oprah\, Bon Appetit\, Essence & Domino to name a few.Michelle attended public schools in New York City\, and was accepted into the High School of Performing Arts where she spent her teenage years as a student in the Drama Department. She went on to attend SUNY Purchase\, where she spent her first year of College before transferring to Bennington College in Bennington Vermont\, on scholarship where she double majored in Literature and Psychology. Bartending and waiting tables throughout her college years\, Michelle managed to finance her education and make ends meet\, but she left Bennington in her senior year\, before completing her thesis\, due to a family tragedy. \nIntending to finish her thesis in absentia\, Michelle quickly set about finding work in Manhattan in order to pay her rent often holding several jobs waiting tables and bartending. Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…Michelle returned back to New York to stay. \nIn early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”. He hired her on the spot. Laughing about it both then and now\, Michelle says it was love at first site!Allan moved in with Michelle that December\, they were engaged to be married within six months and foregoing a huge wedding\, they eloped in Reno Nevada and were married on November 16th\, 1993 on a cliff overlooking Lake Tahoe by the esteemed Nevada Reverend\, Dr. Love.Hogs & Heifers Saloon opened for business on the day after Thanksgiving in November 1992 with Michelle behind the bar. \nThe early days were tough\, mostly because there were no customers\, and therefore no money. That being said\, there was also no heat and Michelle would come to work wearing tiny little leather halter tops in the dead of winter\, and with the always wet floor (rubber floor mats were not in the budget yet) Michelle’s motorcycle boot clad feet were cold\, wet and covered in cement! Alone in the bar and freezing\, Michelle started dancing on the bar as a means to keep warm. She says that her clogging on the bar was inspired by a scene from the movie A Coal Miner’s Daughter\, starring Sissy Spacek. Michelle had a love for country music and immediately felt at home at Hogs & Heifers. She would walk to work in the morning from her West Village apartment\, through the Gansevoort Meat Market and invite all of the meat packers and construction workers to come visit her at the bar\, and they did! \nHogs & Heifers had a bustling day business\, long before the night time business caught on. On any given day you could walk into Hogs & Heifers before 6PM and find a bar full of meat packers\, iron workers\, construction workers\, plumbers\, electricians\, operating engineers\, dock workers\, city workers and so on. \nFollowing Allan’s death in 1997\, Michelle continued on as the sole proprietor of the New York City location until it tragically closed August 23rd\, 2015. \nIn 2003 the city of Las Vegas came knocking at our front door looking for a diamond in the rough to help launch its’ Downtown revitalization project.  Loving the odds\,  Michelle rolled the dice\, opening H&H in Vegas in 2005\, and she continues to be the heart and soul behind the daily mayhem\, madness\, and the sheer magic that is Hogs & Heifers Saloon. \n  \nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:Honky Tonk Hangover | FREE Live Show with Rhyolite Sound | Thanksgiving Eve
DESCRIPTION:Twas the night before Thanksgiving! Country wide\, this is one of the biggest bar nights of the year.  Stomp your feet\, and clap your hands\, let’s get wild with The Rhyolite Sound! \nNo Cover + Live Music + Beer = Good Times \nBar opens at noon\, live music starts at 8:30pm.  Come get you ears drunk! \n \n \nTHE HISTORY OF MICHELLE AND HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON \nThe idea for opening a bar and calling it Hogs & Heifers was conceived in\, of all places\, a bar. Allan Dell was a self-proclaimed functioning alcoholic and figured he spent enough time sitting at a bar and that he might as well make some money while he sat there. Allan’s two friends and drinking buddies were a Master Carpenter and a Graphic Design Artist and he talked them into helping him build a bar. They would all drink for free and get laid regularly and for three broke guys in their early to mid twenties\, who could ask for anything more. Allan’s father agreed to finance his project if he could find an experienced bar owner to “father” him in the business. Enter Tom McNeil\, legend in the Dive Bar business. McNeil owned the Village Idiot in Manhattan’s East Side\, which was the Boys’ favorite watering hole\, where they could sit for hours drinking ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon for a $1.75 a can. Allan knew that he wanted to open a bar that had to do with motorcycles and women and the original logo did\, in fact\, include an illustration of a chopper. The Boys were trying to come up with a name\, while sitting in the Village Idiot one afternoon…”Hogs & something”. On the wall above the bar was a sign for a Heifer Auction\, and a heifer being a cow that has not yet been bred\, is essentially a virgin cow. The name Hogs & Heifers was born. The fact that the bar ended up being in a real meat market was simply due to the affordable rent at the time\, but it was a perfect match and had a great deal to do with the success of the business. \nHogs & Heifers Saloon was to be an all American classic country and southern rock-n-roll dive bar. Allan knew he wanted it to have the look and feel of a gin mill and that he wanted to hang “stuff” all over the walls. Other than that\, there was little else that he had thought about. He had a lot of friends who liked to drink and planned on throwing a party for them every night. Allan may never have imagined that it would turn into the famous bar it is today\, but it was absolutely his pride and joy and he considered it his greatest achievement and reveled in its quick success. \nHaving entered the picture prior to its opening\, Michelle Dell was the first bartender to be hired. The routine performed and style of dress worn by the bartenders behind the bar\, which has made Hogs & Heifers famous\, was born from Michelle’s heart. Hogs & Heifers opened in November of 1992 during an unseasonably cold winter. There was literally no heat source of any kind in the bar and it was so cold you could often see your own breath. Both Allan and Michelle believed in the notion of less is more when it came to dressing behind the bar and it was always freezing; did we mention the bar had no heat? Finally\, Allan bought these little space heaters that did next to nothing to provide heat and with Necessity being the Mother of all Invention\, Michelle began dancing on the bar–in the empty bar–as a means to keep warm. She would throw a few dollars in the jukebox and just get up on the bar and dance. Little did she know it would become the trademark theme of Hogs & Heifers and lead to countless celebrities dancing on the bar and donating their bras. The Julia Roberts photo was seen around the world and her bra still hangs there today\, albeit hidden beneath some 18\,000 bras! Michelle’s famous routine has inspired a Major Motion Picture and a league of copy cat Bars. \nEssentially\, Allan and Michelle\, and their friends\, were just a bunch of kids with nothing to lose and they threw a party that they enjoyed. They were fortunate and blessed that so many others would love to come to their party and would do so repeatedly.  The  two were married in Reno\, Nevada\, on November 16th\, 1993. Allan Dell passed away on June 7\, 1997. Hogs & Heifers continues to be run by Michelle Dell who was the sole proprietor of the New York City location.  She now lives in Las Vegas\, close to her favorite saloon! \nClick here for a virtual tour of our original New York City Location! \nMORE ON OUR OWNER MICHELLE:\n\nA third generation New Yorker\, Michelle grew up in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in the early 70’s\, and was raised by her ever determined mother Susan\, and her brother Greg. Divorcing shortly after Michelle’s birth\, her mother went against the grain of the time choosing to raise her children as a single mother. She waitreSsed to pay the bills\, and in 1976 she and one of her co-workers\, opened a restaurant called Sabor. Thus\, began Michelle’s education in the service industry.\n\nSusan wasted no time in putting her children to work\, both as a means to keep them by her side and to provide them with the tools of consciousness and appreciation for the value of a hard earned dollar\, and earn it they did\, from setting the tables\, to washing the dishes. Michelle would prove that even as a child\, she was as capable (and in most cases more so) than most adults. At the age of nine\, Michelle could be seen riding her blue bicycle with mini ape hangers and a banana seat through the streets of Manhattan with\, unknown to any onlookers\, thousands of dollars in Amex chits in her pockets\, furiously pedaling her way to the bank to cash them in.\n\nOver the years\, Susan would go on to open several more successful restaurants in Manhattan and she would later spend 13 years working for Martha Stewarts Living magazine where she became a VP and Food Editor. Today she is a respected and sought after food stylist\, working with magazines such as Oprah\, Bon Appetit\, Essence & Domino to name a few.\n \nMichelle attended public schools in New York City\, and was accepted into the High School of Performing Arts where she spent her teenage years as a student in the Drama Department. She went on to attend SUNY Purchase\, where she spent her first year of College before transferring to Bennington College in Bennington Vermont\, on scholarship where she double majored in Literature and Psychology. Bartending and waiting tables throughout her college years\, Michelle managed to finance her education and make ends meet\, but she left Bennington in her senior year\, before completing her thesis\, due to a family tragedy.\n\nIntending to finish her thesis in absentia\, Michelle quickly set about finding work in Manhattan in order to pay her rent often holding several jobs waiting tables and bartending. Making ends meet\, quickly became Michelle’s priority and completing her thesis fell to the wayside…\n\nMichelle returned back to New York to stay. In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”. He hired her on the spot. Laughing about it both then and now\, Michelle says it was love at first site!\n\nAllan moved in with Michelle that December\, they were engaged to be married within six months and foregoing a huge wedding\, they eloped in Reno Nevada and were married on November 16th\, 1993 on a cliff overlooking Lake Tahoe by the esteemed Nevada Reverend\, Dr. Love.\n \nHogs & Heifers Saloon opened for business on the day after Thanksgiving in November 1992 with Michelle behind the bar. The early days were tough\, mostly because there were no customers\, and therefore no money. That being said\, there was also no heat and Michelle would come to work wearing tiny little leather halter tops in the dead of winter\, and with the always wet floor (rubber floor mats were not in the budget yet) Michelle’s motorcycle boot clad feet were cold\, wet and covered in cement! Alone in the bar and freezing\, Michelle started dancing on the bar as a means to keep warm. She says that her clogging on the bar was inspired by a scene from the movie A Coal Miner’s Daughter\, starring Sissy Spacek. Michelle had a love for country music and immediately felt at home at Hogs & Heifers. She would walk to work in the morning from her West Village apartment\, through the Gansevoort Meat Market and invite all of the meat packers and construction workers to come visit her at the bar\, and they did! Hogs & Heifers had a bustling day business\, long before the night time business caught on.

In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction. Wearing blue jeans\, cowboy boots\, a cowboy hat\, a cropped denim jacket and a long white duster\, Michelle met Allan Dell\, who upon meeting her said “You’re pretty and you’ve got the look I want and if you steal from me\, I will throw you in the fucking river”. He hired her on the spot. Laughing about it both then and now\, Michelle says it was love at first site!\n \nAllan moved in with Michelle that December\, they were engaged to be married within six months and foregoing a huge wedding\, they eloped in Reno Nevada and were married on November 16th\, 1993 on a cliff overlooking Lake Tahoe by the esteemed Nevada Reverend\, Dr. Love.\n\nHogs & Heifers Saloon opened for business on the day after Thanksgiving in November 1992 with Michelle behind the bar. The early days were tough\, mostly because there were no customers\, and therefore no money. That being said\, there was also no heat and Michelle would come to work wearing tiny little leather halter tops in the dead of winter\, and with the always wet floor (rubber floor mats were not in the budget yet) Michelle’s motorcycle boot clad feet were cold\, wet and covered in cement! Alone in the bar and freezing\, Michelle started dancing on the bar as a means to keep warm. She says that her clogging on the bar was inspired by a scene from the movie A Coal Miner’s Daughter\, starring Sissy Spacek. Michelle had a love for country music and immediately felt at home at Hogs & Heifers. She would walk to work in the morning from her West Village apartment\, through the Gansevoort Meat Market and invite all of the meat packers and construction workers to come visit her at the bar\, and they did! Hogs & Heifers had a bustling day business\, long before the night time business caught on. On any given day you could walk into Hogs & Heifers before 6PM and find a bar full of meat packers\, iron workers\, construction workers\, plumbers\, electricians\, operating engineers\, dock workers\, city workers and so on.\n \nFollowing Allan’s death in 1997\, Michelle continued on as the sole proprietor of the New York City location until it tragically closed August 23rd\, 2015.\n\nIn 2003 the city of Las Vegas came knocking at our front door looking for a diamond in the rough to help launch its’ Downtown revitalization project.  Loving the odds\,  Michelle rolled the dice\, opening H&H in Vegas in 2005\,  and she continues to be the heart and soul behind the daily mayhem\, madness\, and the sheer magic that is Hogs & Heifers Saloon.\n\n\n\n\n\nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			Like this:Like Loading...
