SUMMARY:May Hogs Be with You
DESCRIPTION:It’s not likely that you need a reason to get fucked up on a Saturday in Vegas\, but it is May 4th.  This magical date in the Star Wars Universe is a national holiday.  But who gives a shit about Star Wars\, Saturdays are for drinkin’\, and some of the best damn drinkin’ in town happens at Hogs & Heifers Saloon.  May Hogs be with You… \nWe open at noon and don’t close are doors until 4am \n  \n \n \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. 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  \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...

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.\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:MOTHER'S DAY | Take Your Mom out Dancing
DESCRIPTION:It wasn’t long ago\, your Momma was having sex with your Poppa\, and then magically you popped out less than a year later.  Let’s all show a little appreciation for the Mom’s out there who put up with your shit for their whole lives.  In honor of Mother’s Day\, we have $3 shots of Hogs Piss\, and cheep PBR’s all fuckin’ day!  Has your Mom ever danced on top of the bar at Hogs?  If not\, maybe it’s time… \n \n \nWe don’t let many bands play at Hogs…  when we do\, we do it for a whole fuckin’ weekend!  Of the thousands of events that happen in Downtown Las Vegas throughout the year\, the concerts during Punk Rock Bowling are some of the best!  With that being said\, Hogs & Heifers Saloon and Love Hope Strength present the 5th annual Punk Rock Hoedown!!! \nFRIDAY MAY 24TH – SNIPER 66 | LUICIDAL | ASS WIPE JUNKIES SATURDAY \nSATURDAY MAY 25TH – IGNITE | 1916 | DRYER FIRE SUNDAY \nSUNDAY MAY 26TH – AUTHORITY ZERO | LOST IN SOCIETY | THE LUCKY EEJITS \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.

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.

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.

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.\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...

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!

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  \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...

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.

SUMMARY:To all the Dad's out There\, Shots on the Bar! HAPPY FATHER'S DAY
DESCRIPTION:Cheers to daddy spreading his seed and making all of you fucks! \nThe bar opens at noon.  Cheep PBR’s\, $3 Shots of Hogs Piss\, and the best damn bartenders in Las Vegas…  and girls dancing on the fuckin’ bar!  What else could Daddy want? \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.

DESCRIPTION:Although some may disagree\, we consider our bar to be a touch Honky Tonk\, especially when the boys from The Rhyolite Sound come to play!  We honestly decline a ton of offers from bands to play in our saloon\, but The Rhyolite Sound is a perfect fuckin’ fit for this place.  And we all can use more live music in our lives!  This show is part of a new series of shows that Hogs will be lining up for Tuesday nights.  As always\, no cover…  Can you beat a free show?  Bar opens at noon\, live music\, and the return chicken shit bingo starts at 8:00pm \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.

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.

In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction.

SUMMARY:First Friday | Downtown Las Vegas
DESCRIPTION:We don’t have an official First Friday show\, but we do see art people 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. \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 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 is 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:2019 "Vegas to Reno" Race | Hogs & Heifers Racing
DESCRIPTION:Most of people that work for us at Hogs are adrenaline junkies\, especially our bad-ass boss Michelle.  A few years ago\, Michelle and our bartender manager Tiffany\, helped to co-pilot an off-road racing vehicle during the infamous Mint 400 races held in Nevada.  Following this race\, you could say they were both hooked from the rush one gets participating in events like this.  In the weeks leading up to the 2019 Mint 400\, we decided to go all in with racer Liam O’Donnell\, and form our own racing team…  Hogs & Heifers Racing! We’ve had the pleasure of running multiple races this year with our racing team and we’re extra pumped for what’s next on the calendar\, “Vegas to Reno”.  Below are some details about the race.  We look forward to hangin’ with all you crazy race fans in August! \nThe 2019 General Tire Casey Folks “Vegas to Reno” presented by FOX\, “The Longest Off-Road Race in the United States!” will be a 1-day race\, approximately 550 miles!  The race will be on Friday\, August 16\, 2019 and run into Saturday morning.  We welcome all racers and would like to thank our great sponsors\, General Tire\, FOX\, Ford Motor Company\, Lucas Oil\, VP Race Fuels\, KC HiLites\, FabTech Suspensions\, Rugged Race Radios\, Polaris RZR\, Method Race Wheels\, Team Ford\, McKenzies\, RNR Steel\, Slime\, Trophy Tractor\, Sportsman Cycle Sales\, Tactical Recovery Equipment\, and Dick’s. \nWednesday\, July 24\, 2019 – Draw Day for Start Positions\, make sure your entry form is in to get a good start position.  You will receive your FIP (Final Information Packet) after the draw\, pit book\, rules\, info\, etc… \nWednesday\, August 14\, 2019 – Time Trials for Trick Trucks\, Class 1500 & 6100\, Host Hotel Texas Station \nThursday\, August 15\, 2019 – Registration\, Technical Inspection and Contingency\, Host Hotel Texas Station \nFriday\, August 16-17\, 2019 – Race Day\, finish line closes Saturday morning \nSaturday\, August 17\, 2019 – Awards Presentation\, Sparks Nugget \n  \n\n \n\n\n \nAdditional Sponsors Include:\nSedona Tires\, VP Racing Fuels\, 212 Performance Gloves\,Mud Munchers\,\nHooker Harness\, Armor Kote\, and Speed SXS\n\n \n  \nBetween hosting parties and sponsoring multiple racing teams\, Hogs & Heifers Saloon Las Vegas has been involved in the motorsports industry for over 5 years.  CLICK ME to check out blogs and photo highlights from past events!    \nThe team behind Hogs & Heifers Saloon Racing: \nDriver: Lee O’Donnell -Lee has been involved in off road racing since his early childhood when his parents raced their 53′ Jeep Willys throughout Pennsylvania. As soon as he was old enough Lee was winning races following his parents footsteps. In 1997 Lee purchased a Prolite from the short course legend Johnny Greaves and set his sights towards winning on a bigger stage. Over the next 10 years Lee had a very successful career winning numerous races in stadiums and short courses across the country. Meanwhile\,  while his short-course and stadium career was booming\, he was also hired by Monster Jam in 2000 and was known as the best hired “shoe” in the business. …basically when someone needed to win a specific event\, Lee O’Donnell is who they called. When Ford called and needed a driver to fill in for their corporate driver Linsey Weenk\, Lee got the call\, and delivered big time winning one of the biggest events of the year in the Georgia Dome. When Marvel comics needed a driver to promote their new Ironman movie\, Lee is who they called and was their driver for 7 years. Fast forward to 2016 when VP Racing Fuels came to Monster Jam and asked\, “who’s your best racer?”….Lee gets the nod and man did he deliver. In 2017 Lee won the World Championship when he successfully performed the first FRONT FLIP in a monster truck and his stunt STILL garners millions of views on social media 2 years later. Just to prove a point\, he went on to back that up with a series Championship in 2018.  \nNow that Lee is done with Monster Jam\, he is looking forward to delivering the same success in desert racing. Starting with 3 podium finishes in the world’s biggest desert races with help from his good friend Michelle Dell and Hogs & Heifers\, Lee is looking forward to continuing his winning ways. \nDriver: Damon Bradshaw – Bradshaw began racing at age 16. Winning Motocross races made Damon “the Beast from the East” Bradshaw a hero\, but his aggressive style and gritty desire in both two-wheel and four-wheel racing forever established him as a legend. Bradshaw has won multiple AMA (American Motorcyclist Association) events\, as well as international wins in Canada\, Japan\, Sweden and throughout Europe. Behind the wheel of the Monster Energy monster truck\, Bradshaw won 53 races\, 71 freestyle events\, 7 Double Downs (both racing and freestyle event wins) and set a new track record as the fastest qualifier. Bradshaw remains the youngest rider ever to sign a factory team contract and the first rider to have 9 consecutive Supercross wins. \nEstablished racers in their industries\, Lee and Damon have built a close relationship with the owners of the Mint 400 (Matt and Joshua Martelli) and King of the Hammers (Dave Cole) solidifying our credibility as a race team. Lee and Damon bring a diverse audience due to their Off Road and Supercross backgrounds.  \nCo-Driver/Navigator: Michelle Dell – Owner/Proprietor of Hogs & Heifers Saloon\, Inc.  Michelle and her late\, first husband Allan Dell met in 1992 when Allan was building the bar that would just months later\, open its doors as Hogs & Heifers Saloon.  The two fell in love immediately and the combination of their individual shared innate aura that drew people to them\, brawn\, beauty\, brains and brazen spirits\, proved to be a dive bar dream team.  On a shoestring budget\, with no PR machine behind them\, it was with sheer will\, hard driven work ethic\, and a flair for the outrageous that propelled Hogs & Heifers’ explosive entry onto the NYC nightlife scene.  Once there\, they quickly became the front runner of the local\, national and international bar industry\, setting the new standard for an urban honky tonk\, and etching Hogs & Heifers Saloon’s name permanently on the map of the greatest dive bars the world over. \nBorn and raised in NYC’s West Village by a single\, working\, bohemian mother of two\, Michelle learned to navigate not just the urban landscape\, but the vast turbulence of the socio-economic division and the inspiring\, rebellious cultural and creative dynamism that was NYC in the late 60’s\, 70’s & 80’s.  Working and earning money for herself\, from an exceptionally young age\, Michelle possessed a natural entrepreneurial spirit and when her mother raised enough money to open a small 20 seat restaurant it was then\, at 8 years old that Michelle began her hands on education in what would become a life time of 42 years of experience in the service industry; from diners to fine dining and discos to dive bars\, there is little Michelle does not know how to do.  \nIn 2003 the City of Las Vegas came knocking looking for a seasoned diamond\, purposely in the rough\, to lend its edge and raw\, outrageous spirit to help launch the City’s Downtown revitalization project.  Loving the odds\, Michelle became THE first person to roll the dice on the vision for Downtown Las Vegas\, opening H&H in Vegas in 2005. In 2015\, Michelle was forced to close her beloved NYC location\, after 23 years of successful operation\, due to land development and increasing rents.  She now resides permanently in Las Vegas and continues to be the heart and soul behind her team of naughty do-gooders and the sheer magic of the originality\, spontaneity and independence that is Hogs & Heifers Saloon. \nMichelle had her first taste of sitting in the co-drivers seat in 2016 when good friends\, Lee O’Donnell and Damon Bradshaw called her 3 weeks before the MINT 400 and told her that they had a car\, they would be in town\, they wanted to race and would she sponsor\, with the one condition that\, if she agreed\, she had to be one of the co-drivers.  Michelle jumped at the chance and with Lee\, Damon Tiffany and herself at the helm\, they pulled together a winning team in record time\, wrapped the Hogs & Heifers UTV and in their very first entry into the World’s Greatest Race in the Desert\, took their place on “The Box” to accept their win of 2nd Place in the UTV SxS (Class 3000) and placing 52 overall out of hundreds of entrants\, in multiple classes.   In late 2018\, Lee sent Michelle a text message to say he found THE car and did she want to buy it and start an official Hogs & Heifers Racing Team. A trip to Vegas for Lee and a discussion with Michelle over steaks at Binion’s and it was a done deal!  \nMichelle’s unique ability to wear multiple hats and switch gears from engaging and compelling business woman\, badass biker and thrill seeker to sophisticated and elegant world traveler\, has shaped the 27 years of her established and world renowned brand\, Hogs & Heifers Saloon.  Her status as a pioneer\, community activist and benefactor of local charities has made her a highly respected member of her communities in both her home town of New York and Las Vegas. Without question Michelle is up for the challenge of exploding onto the next scene and recognizes the unique FIRST that this moment has delivered to both her\, Hogs & Heifers and Hytiva.  The chance to be among the first handful of partnerships between off road racing and the CBD Industry at a time when both are exploding world wide\, is a PR bonanza.  Her batteries are charged and propelled by rocket fuel\, Michelle Dell and the Hogs & Heifers brand will be dedicated and determined pioneering partners\, alongside Hytiva to lead the way for this new era of off-road automotive sports and the vastly diverse\, booming CBD Industry.  \nCo-Driver/Navigator: Tiffany Bennett – Bartender Manager of Hogs & Heifers\, motorcycle rider and overall daredevil.  Tiff is a Helicopter Pilot with 500-plus hours of flight time under her belt. From 2005 to present\, Tiffany\, AKA – Hover Lover\, excelled from bartender\, lead bartender to Bartender Manager and leads a team of 12-30 bartenders from full time staff to our part time special event crew.   \nIn 2016\, the above team of four ran their first MINT 400 race as team Hogs & Heifers\, coming in 2nd (class 3000) and 52 overall!  \nThe Car: Our Textron Wildcat XXR is one of four SxS’s\, built by legend Robby Gordon for his effort in the famous Dakar Rally.  Robby was delighted to have sold us one of his most formidable SxS’s\, and stops to check it out and give pointers to our crew whenever he sees us. \n  \n \n \n \n Share 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
DESCRIPTION:We consider Hogs & Heifers to be part Honky Tonk\, especially when the boys from The Rhyolite Sound come to play!  We decline hundreds of offers from bands to play in our saloon\, The Rhyolite Sound just so happen to be a perfect fit for our bar. \nBar opens at noon\, live music  starts at 8:30pm.  Come get you ears drunk! \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \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.

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.

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.

In early November 1992\, Michelle walked into what would soon become Hogs & Heifers Saloon while the bar was still under construction.

He hired her on the spot.

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.

SUMMARY:9-11 Patriot's Day Parade | Downtown Las Vegas | Las Vegas Firefighter's Benefit Association
DESCRIPTION:9-11-01 is a day we’ll never forget in our country. On September 11\, the Las Vegas Firefighter’s Benefit Association invites fellow firefighters\, policemen\, friends\, family\, neighbors\, politicians\, and supporters to join them for a procession in tribute to honors those who fought to keep us safe in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. \nAny current or retired class A firefighters\, and police officers are invited to march. \n6:30pm the participants will arrive at Main Street \n7:00pm the march starts\, and will stop for 10 minutes at 1st Street. We will observe a moment of silence\, sing the National Anthem\, observe the FSE 911 Memorial show\, and the Viva Vision Bagpipers will play one song. \n7:15pm the march contnues to 3rd Street\, we’ll turn left and continue toward Ogden where firetrucks and a large flag will be displayed. Following the tribute\, we’ll continue to Hog & Heifers lisening to the sounds of pipes and drums.  If you haven’t heard bagpipes and drums inside of Hogs yet\, be prepared for goose bumps \nThank you Jameson Whiskey and Budlight for supporting this event. \n \n  \n  \nLas Vegas Fire and Rescue Charitable Association: \nOur purpose is to create\, promote\, and manage charitable events for members of the Las Vegas Fire & Rescue Department. \nLas Vegas Firefighters Benefit Association: \nWe are dedicated to helping our active duty and retired members. With professionalism\, ethics and responsibility we maintain and grow our financial resources in order to provide our retired members in good standing with assistance in defraying the cost of medical insurance\, providing emergency financial assistance\, dependent scholarships and death benefits. We also partner with other charitable organizations to plan morale boosting and community building events for the hard working and dedicated firefighters of the City Of Las Vegas. \n*There is a back story to bringing you this year’s Patriot’s Day Tribute – read below to see what it took for us to make it all happen: \nAs of August 3rd\, We’re delighted to announce that thanks to the media coverage\, and all of your posts\, shares and comments on the Downtown Grand’s social media\, the Downtown Grand hotel/casino has ceded and will be allowing the 9/11 Patriot’s Day Parade to utilize the upper half of Downtown 3rd Street for 90 minutes from 7pm to 8:30pm for the Parade to begin and end there this September 11\,2019 \nA huge thank you to Channel 13 News Reporter Joe Bartels and Channel 8 News reporter Shakala Alvaranga for covering the story. Without those reporters and the power of the media\, this years Patriot’s Day Parade and Remembrance Ceremony would not happen! \n\nIt is too bad the Downtown Grand and it’s parent company CIM Group had to be publicly shamed into reversing their position from a hard no to a yes…but at least they realized quickly that their original position would shed an ever increasing bright light on their true nature as a cold\, callous and carnivorous corporation. \nThe Downtown Grand has placed some extra restrictions and conditions\, never required in previous years\, to their agreement to allow the Las Vegas Valley Firefighters September 11th Remembrance Committee to utilize the portion of the Downtown 3rd for the Annual Patriot’s Day Parade. The DTG and the LVVFSRC will be working out those details to see that it all happens as it should. \nHogs & Heifers still has many battles ahead with the DTG and CIM Group who are trying to force us out of business\, but today’s news is a huge win for our First Responders and for all those lost on 9/11 and the 10\,000 people since diagnosed with 9/11 related life threatening illnesses. \nTo date\, almost 5000 people have died from such illnesses\, almost twice the number of those who died that day 18 years ago. \nIt is win for the Citizens of Las Vegas and we are just happy to know that with all of your added support\, we stood up for what was right and our local news reporters heard our rally and together WE ALL made it happen! \nSeptember 11\, 2001\nNever Forget\nNever Give Up! \nOriginal media posts and news stories below: \n \n \n  \n\n\nThe above (Pre August 3rd) video clips feature MICHELLE DELL AND HOGS & HEIFERS SALOON LOCAL NEWS CHANNELS 13 AND 8 – the latest updates on the Downtown Grand Hotel/Casino having originally said NO to the 9/11 Patriot’s Day Parade in Downtown Las Vegas. \nThe Downtown Grand will NOT close Downtown 3rd Street for 2 hours on this coming SEPTEMBER 11th to allow for the PATRIOT’S DAY PARADE to march on “their street” heading to the 9/11 REMEMBRANCE CEREMONY that takes place at Fremont Street’s 3rd Street Stage. The Patriot’s Day Parade is put on by the Las Vegas Valley Firefighter’s September 11th Remembrance Committee. On July 2nd Mike Tomko\, Retired Firefighter and Chairman of the LVVFSRC\, contacted the General Manager of the Downtown Grand to request to use the street for 2 hours. To date the DTG has NOT responded to the request\, but today we learned that the City of Las Vegas Office of Communications reached out to the Downtown Grand to see if they would be allowing the Patriot’s Day parade to utilize Downtown 3rd Street and their official answer was NO. \nThe Downtown Grand and their parent company CIM Group\, multi billion dollar real estate fund manager with a series of closed and open ended real estate and infrastructure funds\, states\, that due to their new tower construction going on at the 4th Street side of their property\, that DT3rd Street is the only place they can operate their valet and UBER and LIFT pick up and drop off. They claim is is a safety issue and that closing DT3rd Street to traffic would interfere with hotel operations. \nClose to 3000 lives were lost and 6000 others were injured on September 11\, 2001. \n343 Firefighter’s and 71 Law Enforcement Officers gave their lives in their call to duty to save civilians from the deadliest terrorist attack in world history. \nSince that day 10\,000 people who worked and lived in the area and were First Responders have been diagnosed with cancer. \nOver 2100 non First Responders have since lost their lives due to 9/11 related illness. \nOver 2400 First Responders have lost their lives due to 9/11 related illnesses. \nTo date\, more people have died from 9/11 related illnesses than were lost on that fateful day 18 years ago. \nIt has been our greatest honor and humble privilege to be the starting and end point of the Patriot’s Day Parade annually in Las Vegas for the last 8 years. \nAs New Yorker’s\, We are shocked\, disgusted and truly heartbroken that our neighbor and landlord cannot be bothered to reroute traffic on DT3rd for 2 short hours to accommodate the 9/11 Remembrance Parade. \nIt is our belief that the Downtown Grand and CIM Group are stonewalling the Parade route request for use of DT3rd Street\, as a retaliatory move in response to the law suit Hogs & Heifers Saloon filed against them on May 20\, 2019\, for denying us the use of DT3rd Street for any of our annual street events and charity events. \nIt is terrible to feel that our issues with our Landlord have resulted in the denial to the 9/11 Remembrance Committee to use the street as the Patriot’s Day Parade route. \nOne issue has nothing to do with the other!!! \nShame on the Downtown Grand and CIM Group!! \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 The Rhyolite Sound
DESCRIPTION:We consider Hogs & Heifers to be part Honky Tonk\, especially when the boys from The Rhyolite Sound come to play!  We decline hundreds of offers from bands to play in our saloon…  The Rhyolite Sound just so happen to be a perfect fit for our bar\, so we love when these boys come to party! \nBar opens at noon\, live music starts at 8:00pm.  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.

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.

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 is 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:Onsite Tattoos by Trip Ink | Rally in the Alley | Las Vegas Bike Week | Downtown Las Vegas
DESCRIPTION:Who doesn’t need new ink during a motorcycle rally or trip to Vegas?  We’re excited to announce that five tattoo artists will be onsite and tattooing with us during this year’s Rally in the Alley!  Meet the crew coming out from Trip Ink Tattoo: \nRick Trip \nRick Trip\, the owner and lead tattoo artist at Trip Ink Tattoo Company. In addition to that he’s known as being one of the most talented tattoo artists in Las Vegas. With that said he is also widely know in the tattoo/art/music/film industry. \nQuote from Rick Trip: “I just use true techniques from tattooing. Bold will hold and I make sure that my color blends make sense with the skin tone I’m working with.  My goal is to make my clients stand out in a room from people that are already tattooed. Its very popular to get tattooed now\, but its not popular to think it out and try to stand out in the way that I’m doing it.” \nRain \nRain from Northern California and he loves to tattoo\, Here he is introducing himself: \n“Hi\, my name is Rain! I’ve been tattooing professionally for 10 years. I specialize in new school and portrait realism; both color and black and grey. From pop culture art like Rick and Morty to comic book heroes to Grandma’s portrait\, I look forward to assisting you with any idea you have!” \n  \nOsker \nThe newest addition to Trip Ink… Osker Danger!  He’s been tattooing in Vegas for years alongside “Ink Master” Cleen Rock One\, and he’s been a friend to us way before our shop opened.  With that known\, he’s a pro at color packing and impeccable line work. \nJanet \nThe shop apprentice that’ll be tattooing during Rally! \nKelsi \nThe Mysterious One…  Haha \n  \n \nThis will be the 14th year in a row we throw the biggest party in downtown during Las Vegas Bike Week.  What has evolved into a five day bender\, is an event we like to call Rally in the Alley!  Hogs & Heifers\, the only place where you’re encouraged to get a little rowdy during Las Vegas BikeFest! \nFREE MOTORCYCLE PARKING | NO ENTRY FEE \nSTARTING THURSDAY OCTOBER 3RD | HUGE OUTDOOR BAR FEATURING 20+ BARTENDERS \n30+ VENDORS | 3 FOOD TRUCKS | 5 ONSITE TATTOO ARTISTS FROM TRIP INK TATTOO COMPANY \nONSITE PINSTRIPING AND CUSTOM MOTORCYCLE PAINTING BY RAWTIN GARAGE \nTHURSDAY OCTOBER 3RD AT 5PM | CHOPPER SHOW PRESENTED BY RICKY BONGOS WITH USA PARTS CO. \nFRIDAY OCTOBER 4TH AT 5PM | BABES IN THE ALLEY MOTORCYCLE SHOW PRESENTED BY SIN CITY MOTO GIRLS | \nSPONSORED BY EVIL EMPIRE DESIGNS AND FAB 28 INDUSTRIES \nSATURDAY OCTOBER 5TH AT NOON | FXR-DYNA MOTORCYCLE SHOW PRESENTED BY V-TWIN VISIONARIES \nCLICK HERE FOR PHOTO HIGHLIGHTS AND BLOGS FROM OUR PREVIOUS RALLIES DURING LAS BIKEFEST! \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \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”. 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.\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...
